Hey hey, this is Rest In Peace, a sad instrumental ballad: https://youtu.be/h_BIv0tBEAg OGG version: https://www.dropbox.com/s/bhk9530002rx0dq/rest_in_peace.ogg Recorded on last Wednesday and Thursday, I felt unsure about the title and so took a break by going to the BBC radio websiite, where I saw the news about the death of queen Elizabeth. It felt right to dedicate the music to the occasion, after all it takes some of its biggest inheritance from a British band. Instruments used: DrumGizmo with the aasimonster2 kit, purposefully processed to get that unasuming old sound, a free Rickerbecker bass SFZ, probably from the No Budget Band project, the free Gigatron Mellotron library, setBfree and a commercial grand piano and Rhodes library. The synth line is courtesey of the Behringer Neutron. It's good to be back, even with such a sad song, after the long summer break. Best wishes, Jeanette -- * Website: http://juliencoder.de - for summer is a state of sound * Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCMS4rfGrTwz8W7jhC1Jnv7g * Audiobombs: https://www.audiobombs.com/users/jeanette_c * GitHub: https://github.com/jeanette-c Where are you now, what have you found Where is your heart, when I'm not around <3 (Britney Spears)

[LAU] DrumGizmo 0.9.20 released

by Bent Bisballe Nyeng

DrumGizmo 0.9.20 Released! DrumGizmo is an open source, multichannel, multilayered, cross-platform drum plugin and stand-alone application. It enables you to compose drums in midi and mix them with a multichannel approach. It is comparable to that of mixing a real drumkit that has been recorded with a multimic setup. This release was originally intended as a bugfix release, but quite a few features also managed to find their way in. Noteworthy bugs that has been fixed: * Software regression error in cymbal choke code has been fixed. So now choking of cymbals using both directed chokes and after-touch midi events work again as expected. * A compilation error due to an update in LV2 API (we used an obsolete LV2 type) has been fixed, so now compilation should work for everybody again. * Code can now properly be compiled with NSL support disabled at configure time. * Compilation with the modern gcc-11 compiler has been fixed. As usual read the detailed description of all the new shiny features, see the detailed changelog: [1]. And now, without further ado, go grab 0.9.20!!!

[LAU] [LAA] XUiDesigner v0.6 released

by Hermann Meyer

A easy to use tool to generator/design X11 based LV2 plugins. Beside that XUiDesigner allow to generate and install GUI's for existing LV2 plugins, it support as well to generate LV2 plugins from scratch. Special support is implemented for FAUST dsp files, which allow you to generate a LV2 plugin with X11 based UI by just drag'n'drop a FAUST dsp file into the XUiDesigner interface. This works now as well for MIDI capable faust modules. In any way, you don't need to interference with any of the annoying LV2 implementations. XUiDesigner handle that all for you. The very same is true when you like to implement your own dsp (C or C++) into a LV2 plugin. You could create the GUI interface, save the plugin bundle, and implement the needed calls to init, activate and run your dsp. This release comes with a couple of Bug-fixes and aims to be nearly stable. Here is a introduction Wiki <https://github.com/brummer10/XUiDesigner/wiki/XUiDesigner> entry to show the first steps Wiki Note: Please download the attached XUIDesigner_0.6.tar.gz <https://github.com/brummer10/XUiDesigner/releases/download/v0.6/XUIDesigner…> archive, as only that contain the needed git submodule ( old long time knowing bug on github) as the other files wont be able to build XUiDesigner for you.

[LAU] Realtime revoicing of midi chords

by Sirjohndfox

Gday, I'm a disabled musician who plays keys with one hand. I'm looking for ways to enhance my playing. I've written some hacky stuff in python (using http://chordrecognizer.sourceforge.net/) and a standalone c piece for arduino that can recognise a chord and spit out a root note in a lower octave. It works but it could be improved. The next thing I would like to accomplish is to re-voice a triad over a few octaves, for example move the middle note up an octave. I guess it would involve some kind of array and timing function or I could send different notes out to pre transposed synths and be meticulous in my playing techniques to make sure the notes are well ordered. I have tried mididings but the project seems slightly abandoned and the relevant module VoiceFliter doesn't seem to function the way I expect in the version I have I was asking Robin about his x42 plugins and he said there were some users on this list who have come up with some creative solutions for augmenting their playing. I'd love to hear what people have come up with to get some ideas. I apologise for the over all nebulous nature of this. I'm still working on defining the tasks that I think could help me musically. Thanks for your time. John Sent with Proton Mail secure email.
