by Rui Nuno Capela

Greetings everyone! QjackCtl 1.0.2 (end-of-summer'24) is released! QjackCtl [1] is an aged yet modern, not so 'simple' anymore, Qt [2] application to control the JACK [3] sound server, for the Linux Audio [4] infrastructure. Change-log: - Graph: when visible the thumb-view may now be drag-moved over to a different corner position anytime. - Session: introducing new Save session name/directory dialog. - Connections: connector line colors are now uniquely mapped on a (readable/output) client name basis.

Ratatouille.lv2 v0.9 released

by Hermann Meyer

Ratatouille is a Neural Model loader and mixer for Linux/Windows. This release add separate Input control for each Model, makes the delay a delta delay, means it allow to delay the first or the second Model, as needed, and implement support for the 'ctrl' key to allow sample accurate settings for the delay to solve phasing issues between the Models. Ratatouille allow to load up to two neural model files and mix there output. Those models could be [*.nam files](https://tonehunt.org/all) or [*.json or .aidax files](https://cloud.aida-x.cc/all). So you could blend from clean to crunch for example, or, go wild and mix different amp models, or mix a amp with a pedal simulation. Ratatouille using parallel processing to process the second neural model and the second IR-File to reduce the dsp load. The "Delay" control could add a small delay to the second model to overcome phasing issues, or to add some color/reverb to the sound. To round up the sound it allow to load up to two Impulse Response files and mix there output as well. You could try the wildest combinations, or, be conservative and load just your single preferred IR-File. Each neural model may have a different expected Sample Rate, Ratatouille will resample the buffer to match that. Impulse Response Files will be resampled on the fly to match the session Sample Rate.

Sonoj

by Will Godfrey

Just wondering if any of the regulars here are going this year. As it has changed to the 19th and 20th October and doesn't clash with SynthfestUK I'll definitely be going. -- Will J Godfrey {apparently now an 'elderly'}

[Music] Chafe - Wildfire

by Jeanette C.

Hey hey, my virtual acoustic ensemble is back with more experimental music: Wildfire https://youtu.be/nnDppQ3tgfU The ensemble is a physically modelled group of instruments, set in a virtual room, using binaural spatialisation, all done in Csound. This time the music is a mix of (free) jazz, fusion and perhaps even a few metal ideas. Tonally it uses the whole tone and whole-step-half-step scales. rhythmically it features moments of polymetric fun and a few signature changes. If you listen to it on headphones, which is recommended, or on more or less decent speakers at a good volume, you may notice some incidental sounds of the players moving and the room creeking. it's very soft. These sounds are based on samples I recorded, but they are introduced by Csound using semi-random scheduling. Well all is said and done: it's some fun music coming from a stormy day. 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 Just call out my name, and I will be there... <3 (Britney Spears)
