As with many of these 'standardization' efforts success might depend
on adoption, but it's an interesting initiative, so we will see what
happens :-)

Anklang version 0.2.0 is released.
Anklang is a digital audio synthesis application for live
creation and composition of music. It is released as Free
Software (MPL-2.0) and runs under Linux.
The real-time sound engine is implemented in C++, the UI runs
in Electronjs, Firefox or Chrome. Assistance with development,
porting or creative efforts is very welcome.
Anklang provides a MIDI sequencer, Undo/Redo capabilities for note
editing, real-time synthesis, and support for CLAP plugins.
The source code and binary packages are available here:
https://github.com/tim-janik/anklang/releases/tag/v0.2.0
The project website with further resources is at:
https://anklang.testbit.eu/
=======================================================================
This release has significant improvements to audio synthesis
capabilities and user interface. The documentation has been improved in
several places, and automated generation was integrated into the CI.
Audio synthesis enhancements include support for new CLAP (draft)
extensions, such as transport information and file references. We now
support non-linear mappings for BlepSynth ADSR times, and a new audio
plugin Freeverb by Jezar at Dreampoint was added, with fixes to the
damping mode in the original version. Additionally, a Jack PCM driver
based on Stefan Westerfelds’ code was integrated.
Performance improvements were achieved by adding a new optimizing memory
allocator and supporting low-latency scheduling via sched_* or RtKit.
Saving projects will now automatically create backups of recent versions.
The user interface has also seen significant improvements in this
release. These include context help via F1 key in various UI components,
fixes to mouse wheel sensitivity for modern browsers, improved tooltips
and note editing in the piano roll. The UI can now be zoomed via new
menu entries, the color palette was updated, and integration of
TypeScript annotations allowed improving the UI JavaScript code quality.
In terms of packaging, AppImage builds saw major compatibility
improvements, and we increased the frequency of Nightly releases,
building from nearly all significant trunk merge commits. We aim to
generate more regular releases in the future instead of having lots of
Nightly builds between regular releases.

Thanks for that suggestion. Â I confess that I didn't even know that
Carla could be run stand-alone.
I tried this, but unfortunately I still get a crash every time I edit
the sfz file. Â I might perhaps try installing the latest git version of
sfizz.
But in the mean time, I find that the simplest solution is to call my
file something like filenameA.sfz, then after making an edit I save it
as filenameB.sfz, after another edit filenameA.sfz. and so on. Â I
simply have to load the latest version as a new file in the sfizz
plugin, and by alternating the 2 filenames I avoid the crashes.

I'm pretty new to using sfz, and have been experimenting with modifying
files.
I'm running Ubuntu Studio  23.04, and I have sfizz as a plugin to a
track in qTractor. Â I have also tried using Carla-rack as a plugin,
with sfizz inside that.
Unfortunately in both cases, if I make an edit to the sfz file I am
testing, qTractor crashes. Â I don't know whether the problem is with
sfizz or with qTractor itself.
Sforzando appears to reload a file if it is changed, so that you can
immediately test out the results of your edits. Â Unfortunately of
course, Sforzando doesn't exist in a Linux version. Â I know some people
have got Sforzando working in Wine, but I'm not at all clear about how
to do that or whether I could then use it inside qTractor.
Is there some way of being able to test sfz files, with automatic
reload as in Sforzando, but using native Linux programs and/or plugins?
Hi list,
for anyone wondering why qjackctl 0.9.9-1 on Debain stable (bookworm)
does no longer display its icon in the systray after starting: The
package libqt6svg6 is required but sadly not a dependecy of the qjackctl
package.
Rui, thank you for your amazing work, using your tools for more than a
decade now!
best, Peter
Hello all,
Release 0.9.2 of the tetraproc and tetrafile processors for first
order Ambisonic microphones is now available at:
<http://kokkinizita.linuxaudio.org/linuxaudio/downloads/index.html>
Main changes: tetrafile now defaults to the Ambix format for
both channel gains and order. It is still possible to create
old style 'Fuma' files, see README.
Ciao,

It seems those who switched from Github to Gitlab to escape from Microsoft
may have jumped from the frying pan into the fire. I've just seen news
on The Register that Gitlab is extending their 'partnership' with Google - I
didn't even know there *was* a partnership.
Interesting times :(

Say you have a poem and I have a tune.
Exchange them and we can both have a poem, a tune, and a song.
