So it's first solstice'16...

The world sure is a harsh mistress... yeah, you read that right! Heinlein's Moon have been just intentionally rephrased. Yeah, whatever.

Just about when the UK vs. EU is there under close scrutiny and sizzling winds of trumpeting (pun intended, again) coming from the other side of the pond, we all should mark the days we're living in.

No worries: we still have some feeble but comforting news:

Nevertheless ;)

Hiya!

The Vee One Suite aka. the gang of three old-school homebrew software instruments, respectively synthv1, as a polyphonic subtractive synthesizer, samplv1, a polyphonic sampler synthesizer and drumkv1 as one another drum-kit sampler, are here released once again, now in their tenth reincarnation.

Hi everybody,

On the wrap of the late miniLAC2016@c-base.org Berlin (April 8-10), where this Yet Same Old Qstuff* (continued) workshop babbling of yours truly (slides, videos) was taken place.

There's really one (big) thing to keep in mind, as always: Qtractor is not, never was, meant to be a do-it-all monolith DAW. Quite frankly it isn't a pure modular model either. Maybe we can agree on calling it a hybrid perhaps? And still, all this time, it has been just truthful to its original mission statement--modulo some Qt major version numbers--nb. it started on Qt3 (2005-2007), then Qt4 (2008-2014), it is now Qt5, full throttle.

Now,

It must have been like start saying uh. this is probably the best dot or, if you rather call it that way, beta release of them all!

Everybody is here compelled to update.

Leave no excuses behind.

Hey, Spring'16 release frenzy isn't over as of just yet ;)

Keeping up with the tradition,

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.

On the wake of the miniLAC2016@c-base.org Berlin, and keeping up with tradition, the most venerable of the Qstuff* are under so called Spring'16 release frenzy.

Enjoy the party!
