Qtractor 0.9.30 - An End-of-Year'22 Release batch #3


Hello one third and last time this year,

Qtractor 0.9.30 (end-of-year'22) is released!

Change-log:

  • Plugin latency/delay compensation now in effect immediately after changing track option (cf. Track/Properties... /Plugins/Latency compensation).
  • Shade-off regions not-in-view from the thumb-views.
  • Improved MIDI queue time drift correction resilience and stability against in-flight tempo changes.
  • The main real-time process cycle now runs on uniform block-sizes, in strides of 64 frames per period, meaning a higher resolution automation, independent of buffer-size.
  • The internal main MIDI engine gets its ALSA sequencer queue to a higher resolution (PPQN aka ticks-per-beat) and not subordinated to the current session's anymore.
  • Although being deprecated to use, JACK Session support is hopefuly fixed, once again.
  • Better discriminate CLAP Plug-in specific note events and strict MIDI dialect event processing.

Vee One Suite 0.9.28 - An End-of-Year'22 Release batch #2


Holidays greetings,

Yet one second time and behold:

The Vee One Suite of 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.

This time released for this End-of-Year'22 season...

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.

A brief change-log applies for all in common:

  • Mitigate NSM sending lots of dirty messages on SIGTERM signal.
  • Although being deprecated to use, JACK Session support hopefuly fixed once again.

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.
