Greetings y'all,
Qtractor 1.2.0 (mid-summer'24) is out!
Change-log:
- Check whether a LV2 plug-in UI no-user-resize feature is being
explicitly requested.
- Auto-backward is now strictly to the play-head position playback was
last started.
- MIDI clip editor (aka. piano-roll) undo/redo command stack is now held
at the MIDI clip instance level and thus shared and the same to all
respective linked clips; as bonus, it also survives the main session
undo/redo command stack as well.
- MIDI clip editor (View/) Drum Mode option is now persistent on a clip
basis and across sessions.
- Fixed NSM session initialization disabling auto-save and the new
session template features altogether.
- Fixed crash when removing a MIDI track that is currently set as ghost
to open MIDI clip editor(s), or it's been duplicated just recently.
- New MIDI clip tools: Resize / Join, Split notes.
- Session templates do not impose an audio sample-rate anymore, now
being hopefully sample-rate agnostic; also, the edit-head/tail cursors,
loop-start/end and punch-in/out ranges and state are now simply ignored
on loading and saving session templates.
- MIDI tracks now show the respective audio output bus name, or
dedicated port name whether applicable, under the 'Bus' column of main
tracks left pane, above plugins list-box.
- Mixer: also highlight both input and output bus strips, directly
related to the current highlighted track.
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.
