[ANN] The QStuff* Autumn'19 Release

Post by rncbc »

Hello there!

It's coming true: the old bunch of Qstuff*, QjackCtl, Qsynth, Qsampler, QXGEdit, QmidiCtl and QmidiNet, are all catching up and aligning to the magical version 0.6.0 :)

That's all pretty much and enough for now ;)...


** QjackCtl - JACK Audio Connection Kit Qt GUI Interface **
QjackCtl is a(n ageing yet modern, not so simple anymore) Qt application to control the JACK [7] sound server, for the Linux Audio infrastructure.

Website:
https://qjackctl.sourceforge.io
http://qjackctl.sourceforge.net

Project page:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/qjackctl

Downloads:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/qjackctl/files

- source tarball: - source package: - binary package: - AppImage package: Git repos: Change-log:
- Graph: avoid self-connecting over their own ports when client nodes are selected as a whole group; also try to match port-types in a orderly fashion when connecting multiple selected ports.
- Changing current JACK buffer size from Setup dialog (cf. Settings / Frames/Period) may now take effect just immediately ;)
- An 'Apply' button as been added to the Setup dialog; ask whether to restart the JACK audio server, if any settings are changed.
- Added alternate yet non-official CMake build option.
- Fix HiDPI display screen effective support (Qt >= 5.6).
- Command line arguments (--start, --preset=[label] and --active-patchbay=[path]) are passed and take effect on the current singleton/unique application instance, when enabled and already running.
- System-tray icon context menu has been refactored to be exactly the same as the main-window context menu that is re-instantiated on demand.
- Make sure compiler flags comply to c++11 as standard.


** Qsynth - A fluidsynth Qt GUI Interface **
  • Qsynth 0.6.0 (autumn'19) is out!

    Image
Qsynth is a FluidSynth GUI front-end application written in C++ around the Qt framework using Qt Designer.

Website:
https://qsynth.sourceforge.io

- source tarball: - source package: - binary package: - AppImage package: Git repos: Change-log:
- Updated the old yet non-official CMake build option.
- Fix HiDPI display screen effective support (Qt >= 5.6).
- System-tray icon context menu has been refactored to be exactly the same as the main-window context menu that is re-instantiated on demand.
- Make sure compiler flags comply to c++11 as standard.


** Qsampler - A LinuxSampler Qt GUI Interface **
Qsampler is a LinuxSampler GUI front-end application written in C++ around the Qt framework using Qt Designer.

Website:
https://qsampler.sourceforge.io
http://qsampler.sourceforge.net

Project page:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/qsampler

Downloads:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/qsampler/files

- source tarballs: - source package: - binary package: - AppImage package: Git repos: Change-log:

** QXGEdit - A Qt XG Editor **
  • QXGEdit 0.6.0 (autumn'19) is out!

    Image
QXGEdit is a live XG instrument editor, specialized on editing MIDI System Exclusive files (.syx) for the Yamaha DB50XG and thus probably a baseline for many other XG devices.

- Fix HiDPI display screen effective support (Qt >= 5.6).
- Refactored all singleton/unique application instance setup logic away from X11/Xcb hackery.
- Make sure compiler flags comply to c++11 as standard.


** QmidiCtl - A MIDI Remote Controller via UDP/IP Multicast **
QmidiCtl is a MIDI remote controller application that sends MIDI data over the network, using UDP/IP multicast. Inspired by multimidicast (https://llg.cubic.org/tools) and designed to be compatible with ipMIDI for Windows (https://nerds.de). 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.

- source tarball: - source package: - binary package: - AppImage package: - Android packages: Git repos: Change-log:
- Populate automatically the network interface combo-box with detected interface names (after merge request by plcl aka. Pedro López-Cabanillas, while on qmidinet).

- Added alternate yet non-official CMake build option.
- Fix HiDPI display screen effective support (Qt >= 5.6).

- Make sure compiler flags comply to c++11 as standard.


** QmidiNet - A MIDI Network Gateway via UDP/IP Multicast **
QmidiNet is a MIDI network gateway application that sends and receives MIDI data (ALSA-MIDI and JACK-MIDI) over the network, using UDP/IP multicast. Inspired by multimidicast and designed to be compatible with ipMIDI for Windows.
