Vee One Suite 0.9.7 - Spring-Break'19 Release batch #2


Wholly cheers!

The Vee One Suite of old-school software instruments are here again and now released for the second QStuff* Spring Break'19 batch post-LAC2019 frenzy:

All still delivered 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.
  • Changes are that there are quite a few fixes since previous releases:

    • Corrected sample offset and loop range internal reset (samplv1 and drumkv1 only).
    • All audio input now get through without being processed by any or whole effects stage anymore.
    • Re-defined all JACK stand-alone client application UNIX signal handling.
    • Probable fix to sample offset and loop range changes across native UI and loading and saving state. (samplv1 and drumkv1 only).

    The QStuff* Spring-Break'19 Release batch #1

    Cheers!

    Interesting times we're living in...

    The first batch to the so called Qstuff* Spring Break'19 is now being delivered as fully complementary as post-LAC2019 frenzy ;)

    And in this batch, we have:

    All the boring (to death) details, below...

QmidiCtl was long ago designed for the Maemo enabled handheld devices, namely the late Nokia N900 and promoted to the Maemo Package repositories. Nevertheless, QmidiCtl may still be found effective as a regular desktop application and recently as an Android application as well.

    Qtractor 0.9.6 - The Pre-LAC2019 Release Frenzy wrap-up!


    Hi again,

    For last but not least and concluding the so called traditional pre-LAC2019 release frenzy:

    Qtractor 0.9.6 (pre-lac2019) is released!

    Here the last changes included for this wrap-up release:

    • Fixed LV2 UI Touch feature/interface implementation.
    • Plugin latency/delay compensation is now introduced as an option to tracks only (cf. Track/Properties.../Latency compensation).
    • Refactored all singleton/unique application instance setup logic away from X11/Xcb hackery.
    • A bit lesser of a naive file-name numbering is now in place to avoid as much as possible, the piling up of internal curve/automation files when saving existing sessions.
    • Maybe just informational but the original MIDI file format is now correctly reported across ref-counted linked MIDI clips.

    Vee One Suite 0.9.6 - The Pre-LAC2019 Release Frenzy continues...


    Hi all,

    The Vee One Suite of old-school software instruments are here and again released for the now traditional pre-LAC2019 release frenzy.

    This makes it the second batch:

    All still provided in dual form, as usual:

    • 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.

    Changes since previous release are simple and mean:

    • A gentler shutdown for the JACK client standalone client.

    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.

    Welcome to the party!

    Vee One Suite 0.9.5 - The End of Winter'19 Release


    Dear all,

    The Vee One Suite of so called old-school software instruments, are here and again released for the End of Winter'19 season...

    Available in dual form as usual:

    • 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 change-log for this end-of-season are as follows:

    • Improved overall stability for current sample offset and loop range, cross-fade and zero-crossing property changes across UI's, eg. LV2 plug-in native GUI and a host generic provided one. (applies to samplv1 and drumkv1 only)
    • HiDPI display screen support (Qt >= 5.6).
    • A fake/visual piano-keyboard widget is now being introduced to the status bar.
    • Avoid destructing the possibly shared QApplication instance on LV2 plug-in UI clean-up.

    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.

    Qtractor 0.9.5 - A Valentines'19 Hotfix Release


    Hello again,

    Qtractor 0.9.5 (valentines'19 hotfix) is out!

    Changes for this hot-fix release are as follows:

    • HiDPI display screen support (Qt >= 5.6; patch by Hubert Figuiere, thanks).
    • Fixed for DSSI plug-ins (eg. fluidsynth-dssi) loss of configuration state: clear internal config/state keys on release virtual method. (REGRESSION)
    • Fixed for NSM (and JACK) sessions not saving the correct file references/symlinks of clips that are recorded or created during the initial and scratch session.

    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.

    Qtractor 0.9.4 - The Winter'19 Release


    Dear all,

    Qtractor 0.9.4 (winter'19 beta) is released!

    Changes for this season are as follows:

    • Drag-moving and copy-pasting existing clips, while over the main track-view, now shows the respective (audio wave-shapes and MIDI piano-rolls) graphical representations, as much as possible.
    • For good and bad, session name changes now trickle down to respective audio/MIDI file names as well.
    • Audio output monitoring meters may now be shown on MIDI tracks and buses as a default user preference option (View/ Options.../Plugins/Instruments/Show audio output monitoring meters) and also in plugin list context sub-menu (Audio/Meters).
    • Custom color (palette) themes can be exported to and imported from external files.
    • LV2 plug-in UI GTK2 and X11 in Qt5 host native support are now enabled on configure by default.
    • Fixed minimum input value as 10% (was 1%) for audio clip time-stretching in the Clip / Edit... dialog.

    rtirq update - 2019 edition

    Hello there!

    Another year, another rtirq update:

    • Restart rtirq service after resume from suspend (by Térence Clastres).
    • Fix for some Intel internal and USB stuff (by Samuel Pelegrinello).
    • Version 20190129.

    Home-brew packages are available here:

    rtirq-20190129.tar.gz
    rtirq-20190129-37.src.rpm
    rtirq-20190129-37.noarch.rpm

    Again take note that the rtirq init-script/systemd-service makes sense only on real-time preemptive (PREEMPT_RT) or threadirqs enabled GNU/Linux kernels.

    Cheers && Enjoy!
