[linux-audio-user] Freecycle 0.6alpha is out!!

Freecycle 0.6alpha is out!! Freecycle (http://freecycle.redsteamrecords.com) is a beat slicer running on GNU/Linux platform using the QT toolkit, providing amplitude domain and frequency domain beat matching / zero crossing algorithms. It exports sliced audio chunks and generates a MIDI file which can be used to play the sliced loop, or you can jam with it as soon as you’ve made slices using a midi keyboard or sequencer. Freecycle also exports AKAI S5000/S6000/Z4/Z8 .AKP files to be used with your favorite sampler, SoundFont files, and supports slice drag and drop to/from or inside Freecycle. It can process the audio inline using LADSPA effects, as well as apply envelopes to separate slices. This new release replaces the PortAudio and PortMidi support with Alsa and alsaseq. PortAudio and PortMidi are still supported on systems without alsa. As a minor feature, Freecycle now provides the "Bark scale" for spectrogram plotting, which enhances the visibility of the audio wave in the frequency domain. Some bugfixes and minor optimisation as always.. http://download.savannah.gnu.org/releases/freecycle/freecycle-0.6alpha.tar.… Cheers, Predrag Viceic
