One third time, Qtractor 0.9.34 (spring'23) is released! Change-log: - Fixed the snap-to-beat of new notes entry on the MIDI clip editor (aka. piano-roll) due on time signature changes. - Start JACK transport rolling only when metronome Count-in ends. - Fixed an allegedly old and incorrect 0dBfs notch position on MIDI track/buses audio meter sidekicks. - Send/return and Aux-send inserts now show the proper name and the target output bus name on the properties editor title respectively. - Fixed a zero-day blunder that was keeping the real-time process cycle from having the uniform block-size of 64 frames per period; (thus, probably ineffective since v0.9.30). - Multiple MIDI clip tools may now be applied simultaneously, in a single shot, in the following priority order: quantize, transpose, normalize, resize, rescale and timeshift. - Plugin inventory scan now slightly optimized to an allegedly lesser aggressive cache-invalidation algorithm. - Do not send/Preview notes on the MIDI clip editor (aka. piano-roll) when playback is currently rolling. - Send all pending MIDI Note-Off events when playback stops/shuts-off (and/or the Panic! button is hit). - Fixed the internal MIDI file player queue to the highest resolution possible (PPQN aka ticks-per-beat). - Prepping into the next development cycle (with Qt >= 6.5). Description: Qtractor [1] is an audio/MIDI multi-track sequencer application written in C++ with the Qt framework [2]. Target platform is Linux, where the Jack Audio Connection Kit (JACK [3]) for audio and the Advanced Linux Sound Architecture (ALSA [4]) for MIDI are the main infrastructures to evolve as a fairly-featured Linux desktop audio workstation GUI, specially dedicated to the personal home-studio.
