Summery greetings y'all!

On the northern estival season comes the so called Qstuff* Summer'19 release madness galore...

Please enjoy the first batch:

• QjackCtl 0.5.9
• Qsynth 0.5.7
• Qsampler 0.5.6
• QXGEdit 0.5.5
• QmidiCtl 0.5.5
• QmidiNet 0.5.5

On the other news:

Maybe not as compelling as any of those bad old Qstuff* but jack_link has made it to version 0.0.9 ... Yeah, and some weeks ago already, must I tell ya ;)

jack_link is a JACK time-base--and now also a transport--kinda-proof-of-concept bridge to Ableton Link, which already goes into its V3 incarnation.

In a (long, rather boring) sentence, this means that jack_link is now a bilateral bridge--read two-way--to JACK time-base master to Ableton Link local-cloud;) and vice-versa.

The usual caveat emptor rule applies. It may work well--if at all--on some JACK clients and incredibly FUBAR for others (!). To speak the truth, it has been only tested with--and you know what--yours truly Qtractor. And that's what makes me happy :)

Hope it makes you too!

Awe cheers!

The Vee One Suite of old-school software instruments are here once again released for the last time in Spring'19:

• synthv1 0.9.8
• samplv1 0.9.8

All as ever before, still available in dual form:

The changes for this Last of Spring'19 release are:

• Refactored the LFO Sync for correctness.
• Dropped LFO Sync parameter as being irrelevant across element voicings. (drumkv1 only)

• Fixed DC offset on all main DCO wavetable oscillators. (synthv1 only)
• Fixed initial DCO and LFO wave shapes on LV2 plug-in UI.

Hi all,

Too hot to make any boring introduction, so let's get this straight:

The changes for this yet another seasonal release are as follows:

• Plugin-lists and respective plugins state may now be exported and/or imported as XML files.
• When in Drum Mode, Key and Scale are meaningless and thus functionally disabled from the MIDI clip editor (aka. piano-roll).
• MIDI clip editor's View > Ghost Track menu option is now finally a reality: show any existing MIDI track and its respective clips in the background as dimmed, semi-transparent aka. ghost events.
• Minor update to Debian packaging control file.
• Make sure partially selected clips are reset to whole when Shift/Ctrl keyboard modifiers are in effect, to prevent extraneous clip splits or cutaways afterwards.

Howdy!
