Greetings,

Qtractor 1.5.2 (new-year'25) released!

Change-log:

• Duplex MIDI Clock mode is not allowed anymore.
• Immediate and consecutive plugin parameter changes are now merged into a single undo-able command, reflecting only the first value change in the series, dropping the previous old algorithm, which was dead wrong if not utterly defective.
• Unique track names resolve to the first line only.
• Help/Shortcuts... Search tool gets implemented; all changed MIDI controller shortcuts are reverted to their previous settings, when discarding or dismissing the dialog.
• Fixed missing MIDI SPP in some cases.

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.

Greetings,

The Vee One Suite, the 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 for the New-Year'25 recycle...

All elivered 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:

• Just another Vee-One's release for the New Year...
• Last current element is now preserved and selected on preset and/or LV2 plug-in load (host permiting).(drumkv1 only)
• LV2 Plug-in: element parameters as legacy input control ports are not automatable nor addressable from the host anymore. (drumkv1 only)
• LV2 Plug-in: avoid making offset and loop range changes as regular parameter updates, which marked the host's state dirty (modified). (applies to samplv1 and drumkv1 only)

Hi again,

Qtractor 1.5.1 (end-of-year'24) is out!

Change-log:

• Fixed/corrected and awfully bad MIDI metronome and clock timing, a reminiscence from the higher resolution MIDI queuing (in place since v0.9.30, meaning a two year long disgrace :().

Wholly cheers!

qpwgraph v0.8.1 (end-of-year'24) is out!

Change-log:

• Patchbay 'presets' may now be selected from the system-tray icon context-menu.

Description:

qpwgraph is a graph manager dedicated to PipeWire, using the Qt C++ framework, based and pretty much like the same of QjackCtl.

Hi all,

Qtractor 1.5.0 (end-of-year'24) is released!

Change-log:

• Clip/Cross Fade may now apply to all (multiple) selected clips.
• Fixed the status-bar session and MIDI clip length BBT format, when in presence of multiple tempo or time-signature changes.
• Introducing MIDI clip editor (aka. piano-roll) new Transport/Step/Note/Backward and Forward menu actions, to move the play-head to previous and next note events, respectively.
• MIDI clip editor (aka. piano-roll) menu Edit/Select Mode/Edit On, Off and Draw actions are now self-toggled when triggered.
• Plug-in presets menu: now sorted alphabetically.
• When summoned from the menu, the View/Tempo Map-Markers... dialog positions itself to the current play-head location, instead of the absolute beginning of the timeline.
• Introducing new application custom theming option: View/Options.../Display/Options/Custom/Icons theme (directory or folder).
• After a shameful long time, adding a brand new audio clip via the Clip/New... dialog, is now finally fixed and functional.
• Mixer: reduced track names up to first line break.
• Double-click on slider for default value, replicating the behavior of middle-click.
• Fixed bug: Aux Send loses state when reordered in a strip.
• Create/Add new bus below that which is used as source in View/Buses dialog.
• Mitigate truncated bus names in Aux Send Bus dialog.
• Fixed yet another old bug regarding the flush of all pending MIDI Note-Off events when playback stops, shuts-off or panics, especially relevant when playback is resumed anywhere but the absolute beginning of the timeline (and also after a first loop turn around).
• Schedule an actual and complete refresh on main View/Refresh..., especially when changing a custom color theme palette on-the-fly.

Greetings,

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 being released for the End-of-Year'24 holidays...

All still delivered in dual form:

• 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:

• Configure/Tuning: fixed initial scale and keyboard map tooltips.

Cheers!

qpwgraph v0.8.0 (mid-autumn'24) is released!

Change-log:

• A new Patchbay/Manage... feature dialog is introduced, targeting the currently loaded patchbay, allowing the removal and cleanup of connection rules that are no longer used, obsolete or simply not applicable anymore.
• Force an actual complete graph refresh on main View/Refresh...
• Introducing the new Graph/Options... dialog, to where the most general option settings have been (re)moved from the main Help menu.
• Introducing Graph/Options.../Filter to hide nodes by node name pattern (blacklist).
• Fix default PipeWire node nickname if given empty.

Hello again,

Qtractor 1.4.0 (halloween'24) is out!

Change-log:

• Improved color contrast on track and clip title labels, when given track foreground and background colors are too similar in lightness.
• Clip/Split now also applies to multiple selected clips, on any other track than current, if the split point (play-head) is found within.
• Clip Merge/Export... audio clips now taking the internal audio resolution (ie. 64 frames/period), independent to former JACK/Pipewire buffer-size/period.
• New Clip Mute state property introduced.
• New MIDI clip tool option: Normalize / Compress.
• Prepping up next development cycle (Qt >= 6.8)

Greetings (from the crypt),

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

Are here released for the spooky Halloween'24 evening...

All creepy delivered in dual form:

Hi everyone!

QjackCtl 1.0.3 (autumn'24) is out!

QjackCtl is an aged yet modern, not so simple anymore, Qt application to control the JACK sound server, for the Linux Audio infrastructure.

Change-log:

• Long missing D-Bus method slot added: "reset" (dbus-send --system / org.rncbc.qjackctl.reset).
• Graph: Node reference positioning changed to the top-left corner, improving the base snapping-to-grid perception.
• Prepping up next development cycle (Qt >= 6.8)
