[linux-audio-dev] [ANNOUNCE] Xsynth-DSSI 0.9.0

Announcing the latest release of Xsynth-DSSI, version 0.9.0. New features since the last general release include: * Anti-aliased, hard-sync-capable, minBLEP-based oscillators, including a new variable-slope triangle mode. (LADSPA versions of these oscillators are in the works.) * Velocity sensitive envelopes. * An additional filter mode: Fons Adriaensen's MVCLPF-3. * Much improved (but still plain-looking ;-) GUI, now using GTK+ 2.x. * Polyphonic glide, tuning, and pitch bend range controls. * Updated patch set, and better documentation. Xsynth-DSSI 0.9.0 is available at: http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php? group_id=104230&package_id=124101 About Xsynth-DSSI ================= Xsynth-DSSI is a classic-analog (VCOs-VCF-VCA) style software synthesizer which operates as a plugin for the Disposable Soft Synth Interface (DSSI). DSSI is a plugin API for software instruments (soft synths) with user interfaces, permitting them to be hosted in-process by Linux audio applications. More information on DSSI can be found at: http://dssi.sourceforge.net/ Xsynth-DSSI is written by Sean Bolton, and copyright (c)2004 under the GNU General Public License, version 2 or later. Xsynth-DSSI retains the basic synthesis model of Steve Brooke's Xsynth 1.0.2, while adding the following features: - operation as a DSSI plugin, - polyphonic operation, - band-limited oscillators, - a new, more stable filter mode, and - velocity-sensitive envelopes.
