[LAU] [ANN] Qtractor 0.8.2 - A Stickier Tauon release

by Rui Nuno Capela

And now for something ultimately pretty much expected: the Qstuff* pre-LAC2017 [7][8] release frenzy wrap up! Qtractor 0.8.2 (a stickier tauon) is released! Change-log: - Track-name uniqueness is now being enforced, by adding an auto-incremental number suffix whenever necessary. - Attempt to raise an internal transient file-name registry to prevent automation/curve files to proliferate across several session load/save (re)cycles. - Track-height resizing now meets immediate visual feedback. - A brand new user preference global option is now available: View/Options.../Plugins/Editor/Select plug-in's editor (GUI) if more than one is available. - More gradient eye-candy on main track-view and piano-roll canvases, now showing left and right edge fake-shadows. - Fixed the time entry spin-boxes when changing time offset or length fields in BBT time format that goes across any tempo/time-signature change nodes. - French (fr) translation update (by Olivier Humbert, thanks). Description: Qtractor [1] is an audio/MIDI multi-track sequencer application written in C++ with the Qt framework [2]. Target platform is Linux, where the Jack Audio Connection Kit (JACK [3]) for audio and the Advanced Linux Sound Architecture (ALSA [4]) for MIDI are the main infrastructures to evolve as a fairly-featured Linux desktop audio workstation GUI, specially dedicated to the personal home-studio.

[LAU] new GxSVT.lv2

by Hermann Meyer

Hi As a follow up of this thread: viewtopic.php?f=48&t=17031&p=81070#p81070 <https://linuxmusicians.com/viewtopic.php?f=48&t=17031&p=81070#p81070> I like to announce GxSVT.lv2 here. After a couple of issues been solved, I like to push this simulation to the stable GxPlugins.lv2 branch. So, you ask what is it? Well, it's a analogue simulation of the bright channel from the (*)Ampeg SVT Bass Preamp, the 61XX series. Additional I've added a (selectable) Cabinet simulation circuit which simulate the Mesa Bogie V-Twin cabinet, of course, not really a bass cabinet, but I've tweaked it a bit to behave like a 4x10 Celestion. So, you ask, what, what the hell I've to do with this? It's simple, as a open source developer, I depend on your feedback, otherwise, I may get lost between development circles. Right now, I'm very proud about this plug, and I believe I've nailed it, but maybe, I'm wrong. That's what I like to know, am I wrong? Tell me, don't be shy :) Okay, here the observe sreeny: Image A, yea, the source you'll get here: https://github.com/brummer10/GxSVT.lv2 regards hermann (*)Other product names modeled in this software are trademarks of their respective companies that do not endorse and are not associated or affiliated with this simulation.

[LAU] Music: Piano/drums improv - archives

by jonetsu

Hello - This is a short improv for piano and drums from the 'archives', from quite a few years ago. The backdrop is set by the acoustic guitar and the acoustic bass guitar. The drums sounds from an Hydrogen kit were played using an Alesis Control Pad. The piano improv was left as is, no edit. The drum track was multed to extract the toms and snare whenever possible. Couldn't resist to add something, so some slight synth pad was added here and there to underline certain passages. There is a long fade in, so please do not adjust the volume at the beginning. https://soundcloud.com/nominal6/c86-2 Cheers.

[LAU] OT: Monitor setups

by Antony Gelberg

Hi all, As somewhat-on-topic posts seem to be welcome here: 1. When working with audio, do you use more than one monitor? 2. If so, how do you generally divide things up between the monitors, for different stages of the process? Antony -- http://www.linkedin.com/in/antgel http://about.me/antonygelberg

[LAU] More old music: Funny ways

by Jeanette C.

Hey hey, these two songs are from the second album, back in the winter of 2002/2003. The album was called Funny Ways and has - as befits the season - a much darker spirit, also a few more song-like songs. Partly less experimental and partly played straighter and surer: http://juliencoder.de/nama/archives/funny/index.html Enjoy! :) Best wishes, Jeanette -------- When you need someone, you just turn around and I will be there <3

[LAU] Csound User Defined Opcodes released

by Jeanette C.

Hey hey, I just released a couple of Csound User Defined Opcodes (UDOs), including a controllable formant filter optimised for use with MIDI, as well as three voice processing modules, a vocoder, a pitch correction plugin and an auto-tune like opcode that sets a new pitch based on a played MIDI note. Additionally there is a frequency inverter, which mirrors frequencies around a supplied centre frequency and the latest addition the Risset filter. This is a multi-bandpass filter, whose frequencies are controlled by a Risset glissando. You can specify the centre frequency, q-value or bandwidth, number of octaves, direction of the glissando and the modulation rate or tempo. http://juliencoder.de/sound Share and enjoy, <3 Jeanette -------- When you need someone, you just turn around and I will be there <3

[LAU] [Slightly OT]: small studio tour with photos online

by Jeanette C.

Hey there, I just uploaded a small photo studio tour. It's not much. But I had a nice lady over yesterday, who enthusiastically took a few pix. She's in web design and wondered if I had a gallery online and thus helped getting it started. She isn't responsible for the actual - nonexistent - layout: http://juliencoder.de/nama/studio_tour.html Enjoy and feel free to comment or ask questions. Best wishes, Jeanette -------- When you need someone, you just turn around and I will be there <3
