Dear all,
QMidiarp-0.6.3 fixes an annoying regression in the Arp LV2 module, where the
pattern display did not follow changes made in the pattern field or when
selecting a preset.
It also fixes the LV2 plugin user interfaces when building with --enable-qt5.
NOTE (again) that when built against Qt5 these plugins will work only in Qt5
plugin hosts at this time (i.e. Rui's Qtractor or drobilla's jalv.qt5, but no
longer Ardour), however updates of drobilla's suil library also seem to be on
their way.
Please update to this version and....
Enjoy!
Frank

QMidiArp is a MIDI arpeggiator, phrase generator and controller LFO for JACK
and ALSA. It can run multiple synchronized arpeggiators, LFOs and step
sequencers. The modules are also available as LV2 plugins with Qt user

Hi All,
Praxis LIVE v2.2.0 is now available for download from www.praxislive.org
This is the first release to upgrade the OpenGL renderer to Processing
v3. Feedback on whether this is working well would be appreciated.
Full change log -
* OpenGL video pipeline updated to Processing v3.0.1 / JOGL v2.3.2.
While providing major performance and stability improvements, this is
a major change and there is the possibility for some regressions.
Please update carefully and report any issues.
* Optional support for GStreamer 1.x. This can be set under Tools /
Options / Video / GStreamer (requires restart). Unlike GStreamer 0.10
support, this requires a system installed version of the GStreamer
library on all platforms. Windows and OSX users who want to experiment
with this feature can download GStreamer from
http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/download/
* New core:tracker component, and simple table-based tracker editor
(use popup menu and Edit patterns to access). More advanced editing
features to follow.
* New routing components - core:routing:every for allowing through
every n-th message, and core:routing:order to prioritise dispatching
of messages.
* New audio:clock component for more stable timing in BPM (quantized
to internal processing buffer size).
* Internal (and outdated) help removed and replaced with link through
to online manual at http://praxis-live.readthedocs.org
* TinkerForge bindings updated to v2.1.5.
* Added ready and error ports to video:capture and video:player. Can
be connected to play or pause to auto-start playback when new file or
pipeline loaded.
* Many minor bug fixes (see commit log).

Hello,
Basically the subject line says it all. It is the demo version. The
X86_64 ran well, stuff was seemingly installed, and then what ?
Restarted Ardour 4.4, the FC-70 limiter does not show up in the
available plugins.
Thanks.

There is a VST plugin that runs Pure Data patches
http://pd-pulp.net/
The Oxe FM synth is now available as a native Linux VST
https://github.com/oxesoft/oxefmsynth
There is a Renoise tool that provides an interface for the processors
from the Composers Desktop Project.
http://forum.renoise.com/index.php/topic/41882-new-tool-30-cdp-lua-tool/
Nick Dowell's amSynth now works as a native Linux VST
http://amsynth.github.io/
RtCmix has the beginnings of an IDE useful for Linux users
https://github.com/jwmatthys/cmixide
Commercial interest is higher than ever, with samplers from Renoise
(Redux) and discoDSP (Bliss), synths from u-he, discoDSP (Vertigo), and
Tracktion (MicroSynths). Bitwig continues its climb towards a 1.2
release, the betas finally have JACK transport control and support for
loading FXP/FXB presets into synths such as Obxd and Extent Of The Jam's
DigitsVST. Lots of movement on the DAW front, with updated offerings
from Renoise, Mixbus, and Tracktion.
Good times for Linux-based musicians.
Best,
dp
This is slightly OT as Free Software on Windows will do just as well....
My colleague with whom I make a lot of music has been squeezing her
creativity through a "free" version of Garage Band on a iPad. She has
had a great time with the UI but is beset by all the problems we all
know of with such products. She does not own, and cannot afford, a
Apple computer so cannot really get the benefits of Garage Band.
In the Free Software world what would be the best next step? Is there one?
I am flumoxed because I have a different approach (I prefers issuing
instructions to moving icons) and Garage Band is a complete mystery to me.
cheers

I voted for love
Â
I was very excited to find a video of the
complete
Tristan and Isolde on YouTube recently,
complete with
English subtitles.
I used the youtube-dl utility to grab the video,
but
when I began playing the copy on my hard-drive
with
totem, to my horror, the English subtitles
were
not there! To repeat, the subtitles are on
youtube.com but not in the .webm file that
I
downloaded with youtube-dl.
Can someone coach me how to download a version
with the English subtitles? Or are there subtitles
in my downloaded version and totem is just not
playing them?
Thank you for your help.
P.S. On the totem menu under View, there
is a
command called Subtitles
but this prompts me for
another file.
Is there a subtitle file in addition
to
the video file that I need to download from
youtube? Thanks again.

My impression after using GarageBand just a few minutes is, that it can
be used to easily get a result that deeply impress listeners.
But how many really different songs can you produce using the same
sounds by the same playing techniques?
I'm using tools like Ardour, Qtractor etc. were it takes much longer to
get a result that deeply impress listeners and perhaps the result won't
impress a listener at all, but the result would be what I played,
nothing that is restrained by provided patterns.
>But, as I understand, creating new, free soundfonts (free as in
>freedom) can help solve the problem... am I wrong?
Yes and no. It depends on what you're missing. Sometimes you need
better soundfonts, but sometimes you can't simply play the samples, you
need to add effects and/or edit the MIDI data, or you need special
instruments to play the samples. There are very good MIDI drum sets
available to play drum samples, instead of using a keyboard.
IOW which sounds you used with Linux were not as good, as the sounds you
used with GarageBand?
Perhaps somebody could recommend a good soundfont or effect you could
use with Linux, or a Linux helper tool.
hi all
I have a BCR2000 and I want to init some controllers to some values.
init is done by a bash script so I would like to set the value in a bash
script and send it out to the BCR2000.
the controller shows up on jack , under a2j , but i am not sure which
program - if any - exists out there that can send this midi signals.
thank you in advance for your help!
