Ratatouille.lv2 v0.4 released

by Hermann Meyer

Ratatouille is a Neural Model loader and mixer. It 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. A "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. Settings could be saved as presets (host side) and switched seamless. You'll find ready to use binary packages on the release page.

16in/8out all analogue USB audio device

by Jeanette C.

Hey hey, I just came across this design, introduced at Superbooth 2024. It's a USB audio 2.0 class compliant little audio interface with 16 analogue inputs and 8 analogue outputs, no bells and whistles. I thought this might be interesting, seeing that the developer hasn't released it to the market yet and is looking for some feedback. Here's the sonicState video showing it: https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/srk7iWr8P38 And here's the Modular Audio Tools website going into a little more detail: https://www.modularaudiotools.com/ 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 There's just a thing or two I'd like you to know <3 (Britney Spears)

Calf Vintage Delay substitute?

by Lorenzo Sutton

Hi list, I have heard rumors that Calf plugins could soon be dropped from distributions mainly due to GTK2 dependency (see e.g. issue where already in 2022 the Arch Linux maintainer is warning about this) [1]. Overall last Calf GitHub activity seems to indicate 3 years ago. I'd say the only plugin I used and still use quite a lot is the 'Vintage Delay' mainly due to its controls [2] and its 'final' result / effect (i.e. what I hear), so essentially I'm considering the creative / expressive aspects of this plugin, not its 'technical' features. I know technical talks about these plug-ins are particularly 'flammable', but please keep in mind my question is purely posed as 'linux audio user' i.e. some dude trying to use Linux and FOSS to make music - do also keep in mind this is/was (also historically as LADSPA) the most widespread delay plugin around ;-) BPM (sync or arbitrary) and stereo features (''ping-pong' or stereo mode) including musical ratio (sub) divisions are maybe the most important features for me as well as the straight-forward controls (from a UX / musical wokflow perspective). i.e. I'd like a delay plugin where I don't have to solve BPM to millisecond formulas and calculate left and right delays each time (for that I already have a self-made Pd patch). Any recommendations for possible substitutes, ideally FOSS, alternatives - even better something I could just put in as a replacement on stereo tracks / busses where this plug-in exists in my projects? Or if it doesn't exist any friends from LAD willing to make one (I'd be willing to help with requirements and testing etc.)? I have a proof of concept of a simpler 'stereo delay' (without the musical times) made in Pd which mimics this but I'd prefer a LV2 (or similar) plugin. Also with the 'echo' plugin in recent Yoshimi versions which can sync to BPM and allows independent left-right delay controls I have obtained similar creative results (albeit only for yoshimi sounds, of course).

Re: Fedivision music contest/festival

by Christopher Arndt

Am 07.05.24 um 01:05 schrieb David W. Jones: > The Fediverse's annual music contest/festival Fedivision is back > > The deadline for entries is next Sunday, voting will be two weeks later. Well, apparently this was first announced in February: https://fedivision.party/fedivision-2024/ Unfortunately, at this late date I think it's rather unrealistic for most musician's to still be able to finish a submission until Sunday, if they haven't started yet. Especially since it needs to be an original, previously unreleased composition. Thanks anyway for the heads up, I didn't know of this contest. Chris
