Re: [LAU] Aeolus update

Hello all, Version 0.10.1 of Aeolus is now available at the usual place: <http://kokkinizita.linuxaudio.org/linuxaudio/downloads/index.html> * Cleanup, maintenance, bug fixes. The biggest bug was probably that the 'instability' and 'release detune' parameters set in the stops editor were correctly stored into the *.ae0 files which contain the stop definitions, but NOT copied into the *.ae1 files which contain the precomputed wavetables and run-time synthesis parameters. So they would work only when the wavetables were recomputed on a running Aeolus instance (e.g. by changing tuning or temperament), and not when previously stored ones were reloaded. This makes quite a difference, as without the random delay modulation which is controlled by 'instability', the looped parts of the wavetables just become a static sound. You may also get stops-0.4.0. This includes some tweaks that I have done on my local copy over the past years, but is probably not much different from 0.3.0. You may need to modify your ~/.aeolusrc to use these. ------- Apart from bug fixes, this will be the last release using the current Aeolus framework. A completely new one is in the pipeline, but it still requires a lot of new code, testing and tuning. This will provide: * 'Chiff', the filtered noise that some pipes generate. I've finally found an algorithm that produces realistic results and that is efficient enough to work on lots of pipes. * Using multiple CPU cores. * Higher order Ambisonics output. * Binaural output (with optional head tracking). * Full separation of UI and synthesis processes, connected via a network connection.
