Howdy, Once again, the 'Vee One Suite' of 'old-school' software instruments, featuring a 'gang of three' made of synthv1 [1] as a polyphonic synthesizer, samplv1 [2] a polyphonic sampler and drumkv1 [3] as a drum-kit sampler, are being released into the wild as in so called 'beta' phase. Changes for this one third beta release are as follows: - MIDI bank-select/program-changes is now supported, for patch, preset and/or instrument program control. - New Help/Configure dialog is introduced for editing the also new MIDI bank/programs interface and user preference options as well (new home of the old Help/Use native dialogs option). - Presets may now be specified by base name, as an alternative to the complete preset file-path on command line argument (re. stand-alone JACK client). - Fixed parameters A/B comparison swap. As usual, all made available in dual form: - a pure stand-alone JACK [4] client with JACK-session, NSM [5] (Non Session management) and both JACK MIDI and ALSA [6] MIDI input support; - a LV2 [7] instrument plug-in. The Vee One Suite are free and open-source Linux Audio software, distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL) [8] version 2 or later.
