Qtractor 1.2.0 - A Mid-Summer'24 Release

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.

Vee One Suite 1.1.0 - A Midi-Summer'24 Release

Greetings everyone,

The Vee One Suite, the so called gang-of-four old-school software instruments,

  • synthv1 as a polyphonic subtractive synthesizer;
  • samplv1 a polyphonic sampler synthesizer;
  • drumkv1 as yet another drum-kit sampler;
  • padthv1 a polyphonic additive synthesizer.

Are here released as the northern Mid-Summer'24 season...

All four delivered in dual form, still:

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

Change-log:

  • Smooth and seamless voice/note deferred switching, whenever the sample file and/or any wavetable parameter is reset or changed. (applies to samplv1, drumkv1 and padthv1, only)
  • LV2 Plug-in Control Input Port-Change Request extension is not tagged experimental anymore.

qpwgraph v0.7.7 - A Mid-Summer'24 Beta Release

Greetings everyone,

Change-log:

  • Thumb-view repositions and resizes immediately when visible.

Qtractor 1.1.1 - A Summer'24 Hotfix Release

Hello again,

Now for a quite urgent matter:

Qtractor 1.1.1 (summer'24 hotfix) released!

Change-log:

  • Fixed an incredibly severe bug, introduced very recently, that deletes all MIDI files belonging to active clips, when closing and discarding a modified session without saving.
  • Fixed MIDI clip recording when note-off events are missing or not transmitted.
  • Fixed a relatively old crash-bug that manifests on undoing several free-hand drawn events (Edit/Select Mode/Edit Draw) in the MIDI clip editor (aka. piano-roll).

Description:

Qtractor is an audio/MIDI multi-track sequencer application written in C++ with the Qt framework. Target platform is Linux, where the Jack Audio Connection Kit (JACK) for audio and the Advanced Linux Sound Architecture (ALSA) for MIDI are the main infrastructures to evolve as a fairly-featured Linux desktop audio workstation GUI, specially dedicated to the personal home-studio.
