Hello list!
I'm currently testing Linux Mint Debian Edition (LMDE) 6 "Faye" to see
how pipewire performs.
However, the first stumbling stone is that LMDE 6 ships with pipewire
0.3.65. It does have backports enabled though, where version 1.0.7 is
available, but I can't understad how to upgrade.
This is what I tried:
1. Open synaptic and search for all pipewire packages with version 0.3.65.
2. Mark all the packages to use version 1.0.7 (Package > Force
version...). Synaptic then automatically marks some other packages for
upgrading or removal.
3. Despair at the error message
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
E: Unable to correct dependencies
Anyone here had a go at this before, or have pointers on how to
succesfully upgrade?
Best regards, Alf
Hi everyone,
This is just to let you know that after a couple of years of absence, Linux Audio Conference will take place in Lyon in 2025 on June 26-28. For those of you who speak French, it will be preceded by the Journée de l'Informatique Musicale (JIM) on June 23-25. The call for contributions will be posted on the conference website by the beginning of September: https://jimlac25.inria.fr/
In the meantime, save the date ;).
Cheers,
Stéphane (for the jimlac25 committee)
StompTuner, a Strobe Tuner in Stomp Box Format, release version 0.5
This Release fix a Sample Rate issue within the CLAP format, add the AU
(Audio Unit) plugin format for macos, and introduce a new, reworked GUI.
StompTuner using the DISTRHO DPF <https://github.com/DISTRHO/DPF> Plugin
Framework and provide plugins in the LV2|VST2|VST3|CLAP|AU format for
Linux|macOS and Windows.

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.

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).

Hello all,
zita-jclient-0.5.2 is now available at
<http://kokkinizita.linuxaudio.org/linuxaudio/downloads/index.html>
This version is required for the 'freewheeling' classes in
zita-jacktools to work. They will fail silently with older
versions of zita-jclient.
Ciao,
