Howdy!

The Vee One Suite of old-school software instruments, respectively synthv1, as a polyphonic subtractive synthesizer, samplv1, a polyphonic sampler synthesizer and drumkv1 as yet another drum-kit sampler, are into a hot Summer'17 release!

Still available in dual form:

• a pure stand-alone JACK client with JACK-session, NSM (Non Session management) and both JACK MIDI and ALSA MIDI input support;
• a LV2 instrument plug-in.

The Vee One Suite are free, open-source Linux Audio software, distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL) version 2 or later.

And now for something ultimately pretty much expected: the Qstuff* pre-LAC2017 release frenzy wrap up!

Change-log:

• Track-name uniqueness is now being enforced, by adding an auto-incremental number suffix whenever necessary.
• Attempt to raise an internal transient file-name registry to prevent automation/curve files to proliferate across several session load/save (re)cycles.
• Track-height resizing now meets immediate visual feedback.
• A brand new user preference global option is now available: View/Options.../Plugins/Editor/Select plug-in's editor (GUI) if more than one is available.
• More gradient eye-candy on main track-view and piano-roll canvases, now showing left and right edge fake-shadows.
• Fixed the time entry spin-boxes when changing time offset or length fields in BBT time format that goes across any tempo/time-signature change nodes.
• French (fr) translation update (by Olivier Humbert, thanks).

The Qstuff* pre-LAC2017 release frenzy continues...

The Vee One Suite of old-school software instruments, respectively synthv1, as a polyphonic subtractive synthesizer, samplv1, a polyphonic sampler synthesizer and drumkv1 as yet another drum-kit sampler, are all joining the traditional pre-LAC release frenzy!

All available in dual form:

• a pure stand-alone JACK client with JACK-session, NSM (Non Session management) and both JACK MIDI and ALSA MIDI input support;
• a LV2 instrument plug-in.

The common change-log for this second batch release goes as follows:

• A custom knob/spin-box behavioral option have been added: Configure/Knob edit mode, as to avoid abrupt changes upon editing values (still the default behavior) and only take effect (Deferred) when enter is pressed or the spin-box loses focus.
• The main GUI has been partially revamped, after replacing some rotary knob/dial combos with kinda more skeuomorphic fake-LED radio-buttons or check-boxes.
• A MIDI In(put) status fake-LED is now featured on the bottom-left status bar, adding up to eye-candy as usual (applies to all); also, each drum element key/sample now have their own fake-LED flashing on respective MIDI note-on/off events (applies to drumkv1 only).
• Alias-free/band-limited wavetable oscillators have been fixed to prevent cross-octave, polyphonic interference. (applies to synthv1 only).
• A brand new and specific user preference option is now available as Help/Configure.../Options/Use GM standard drum names (default being yes/true/on; applies to drumkv1 only).

Greetings!

The Qstuff* pre-LAC2017 release frenzy is getting started...

• QjackCtl 0.4.5
• Qsynth 0.4.4
• Qsampler 0.4.3
• QXGEdit 0.4.3
• QmidiCtl 0.4.3
• QmidiNet 0.4.3

Enjoy the first batch, more to come and have fun!

Great news!

The Vee One Suite of old-school software instruments, respectively synthv1, as a polyphonic subtractive synthesizer, samplv1, a polyphonic sampler synthesizer and drumkv1 as yet another drum-kit sampler, are once again out in the wild!

Still available in dual form:

• a pure stand-alone JACK client with JACK-session, NSM (Non Session management) and both JACK MIDI and ALSA MIDI input support;
• a LV2 instrument plug-in.

The common change-log for this dot release follows:

• Fixed a probable old miss about changing spin-box and drop-down list not reflecting changes immediately into the respective parameter dial knobs.
• Fixed middle-button clicking on the dial-knobs to reset to the current default parameter value.
• Help/Configure.../Options/Use desktop environment native dialogs option is now set initially off by default.
• Added French man page (by Olivier Humbert, thanks).
• Make builds reproducible byte for byte, by getting rid of the configure build date and time stamps.

The Vee One Suite are free, open-source Linux Audio software, distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL) version 2 or later.

So here they go, thrice again!
