[LAD] [ANN] QmidiCtl, QmidiNet 0.0.1 - New Kids On the Block

Greetings, QmidiCtl [1] is a MIDI remote controller application that sends MIDI data over the network, using UDP/IP multi-cast. It has been designed primarily for the Maemo [3] enabled handheld devices, namely the Nokia N900 [4]. In its current development state, which is obviously alpha as of this writing, it puts a mini multi-track recording control surface on your hands and on-the-go, so to speak. MMC is the feature and yours truly Qtractor [5] the target. However, any other MMC enabled DAW may be considered. However nothing of this would be possible without this little thing that gets also here its release announcement: QmidiNet [2] is a MIDI network gateway application that sends and receives MIDI data (ALSA Sequencer) over the network, using UDP/IP multi-cast. Fundamentally inspired by multimidicast [6] and designed to be compatible with ipMIDI [7] for Windows, it's a little tiny application that sits as an icon on your system tray and exposes one or more ALSA Sequencer client ports which open the way for a MIDI network mesh. Pretty neat if you think wireless and not necessarily because of QmidiCtl [1]. Alas, you can transform any Linux/ALSA computer (or Windows/ipMIDI [7] enabled one, if you dare to) into a MIDI-over-IP inter-connected node. Be free, without cables :) Websites: http://qmidictl.sourceforge.net http://qmidinet.sourceforge.net Project pages: http://sourceforge.net/projects/qmidictl http://sourceforge.net/projects/qmidinet Downloads: - source tarballs: http://downloads.sourceforge.net/qmidictl/qmidictl-0.0.1.tar.gz http://downloads.sourceforge.net/qmidinet/qmidinet-0.0.1.tar.gz - source package (openSUSE 11.2): http://downloads.sourceforge.net/qmidictl/qmidictl-0.0.1-1.rncbc.suse112.sr… http://downloads.sourceforge.net/qmidinet/qmidinet-0.0.1-1.rncbc.suse112.sr… - binary packages (openSUSE 11.2): http://downloads.sourceforge.net/qmidictl/qmidictl-0.0.1-1.rncbc.suse112.i5… http://downloads.sourceforge.net/qmidictl/qmidictl-0.0.1-1.rncbc.suse112.x8… http://downloads.sourceforge.net/qmidinet/qmidinet-0.0.1-1.rncbc.suse112.i5… http://downloads.sourceforge.net/qmidinet/qmidinet-0.0.1-1.rncbc.suse112.x8… - binary packages (Ubuntu 9.10): http://downloads.sourceforge.net/qmidictl/qmidictl_0.0.1-1.rncbc.ubuntu910_… http://downloads.sourceforge.net/qmidictl/qmidictl_0.0.1-1.rncbc.ubuntu910_… http://downloads.sourceforge.net/qmidinet/qmidinet_0.0.1-1.rncbc.ubuntu910_… http://downloads.sourceforge.net/qmidinet/qmidinet_0.0.1-1.rncbc.ubuntu910_… - binary packages (Maemo 5): http://downloads.sourceforge.net/qmidictl/qmidictl_0.0.1-1_armel.deb Weblog (upstream support): http://www.rncbc.org License: QmidiNet and QmidiCtl are both free, open-source software, distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL) version 2 or later.</dd> References: [1] QmidiCtl - A MIDI Remote Controller via UDP/IP Multicast http://qmidictl.sourceforge.net [2] QmidiNet - A MIDI Network Gateway via UDP/IP Multicast http://qmidinet.sourceforge.net [3] Maemo.org - Home of the Maemo community http://www.maemo.org [4] Nokia N900 http://wiki.maemo.org/Nokia_N900 [5] Qtractor - A Audio/MIDI multi-track sequencer http://qtractor.sourceforge.net [6] multimidicast - sends and receives MIDI from ALSA sequencers over network http://llg.cubic.org/tools/multimidicast [7] ipMIDI - MIDI over Ethernet ports - send MIDI over your LAN http://nerds.de Cheers && Enjoy -- rncbc aka Rui Nuno Capela rncbc(a)rncbc.org
