Package requests here! (New and updates)

[briandc]

The repository changes needed to deprecated old systems are now in place.

For Debian 7 or Ubuntu 12.04 people there will be a kxstudio-repos update which will not be installable (on purpose).
If you're one of those users with an old system, please upgrade when you can.
The final/proper KXStudio 14.04 ISO will be out sometime soon.

Will this require a complete re-installation or will the upgrade take care of everything?
I'd hate to have to re-install from zero..

Calf plugins got new look!

Details: http://libremusicproduction.com/news/20 ... s-new-look

Updating the calf-plugins-git package would probably get this update working for KX Studio users.

Thanks!

Hey falkTX will you add Audacity 2.1.0?

Cheerz!

+1
I'd like to test the new spectral editing

[studiochanning]

thank you for KXStudio!

an update request: x42-plugins, the latest version (x42-plugins-20150530) has a new equalizer we'd love to use https://github.com/x42/x42-plugins

[studiochanning]

I just updated x42-plugins yesterday

yep - refreshed synaptic and see it now - thanks again!

has sorcer been updated recently? I don't use it but I keep getting an error in ingen and it's kind of annoying...

drumkv1 also needs to be updated (and the rest of the v1 suite too i guess). I'm pretty sure 0.6.2 is the reason why ardour4 would not stop crashing and it also has some pretty unworkable bugs.

Maybe it's a bit out of scope, but I found out that SSR is the best screencasting software for Linux to date. I've recorded some videotutorials on LMMS/ZynAddSubFX combo with it. It's not perfect, but still most featurefull and robust in my opinion.

It's hard to get it working due to dependency issues, and it's only availabile from it's own PPA which answers 404 in my Debian 8 / KX Studio.

@falkTX:

I tried removing the kxstudio-repos, then apt-get update, then install kxstudio-repos. But I'm not getting any new updates from kxstudio-repos anymore.

Hi, just to know: are you going to update MuseScore to version 2.0.1?

Here it is:

I've found a pretty kick-ass piece of software regarding spectral editing.

It's able to separate different instruments from a mono (or stero) recording with the help of the user. It's like cutting up a sound in GIMP, looks amazing. I think it could be of much joy for KX Studio userbase.

I already showed this to Audacity guys, asking if they could make use of that code and workflow, but I guess until that's done it's good to have the standalone version availabile. I wasn't able to run this, I'm not very good at building random packages. I hope you guys can do better and maybe include this marvelous project in the repos. I guess if it get more users, we could make noise and make it's developers get working on it again. Or make the A-team implement that functionality in Audacity (that'd rock!).

So here the project page. I think the demo video does great job there:

Here's my forum post in Audacity's land, if you're excited and want to bump that up:

Also there's a much simpler tool for converting sound to image, and the resynthesing that sound from the image (spectrogram). It has some neat unconventional uses like sound design, or printing sounds out of an inkjet, to scan them and play back later. I've run that and I'm trying to get some interesting sounds out of it. It's pretty fast (in the -s mode: sine synthesis). The demo material is pretty inspiring in my oppinion. I think this one is worth having in the arsenal too. Also, I'd love to see an LV2 instrument that'd use that tech to play back image files (RGB ---> LR?) as audio samples.

Wow unfa, that's incredible. Audacity would be an impressive tool if it could incorporate that.

Thanks for packaging setBfree. I've been playing it lately and its pretty amazing.
Here's a couple requests:
jalv.selector (https://github.com/brummer10/jalv_select)
Also qloud (http://www.gaydenko.com/qloud/). I find it simpler than aliki for impulse response measurement. Its a bit out of date though and will probably take some doing to package.

[ssj71]

about jalv_select,
tbh I'd rather have that internally on claudia-launcher instead (running through carla-single).

sounds good to me. just some ultralight way to browse and launch a single plugin. I'm just too lazy to be typing lv2ls | grep all the time

Hello, Unfa (and sorry guys for hijacking this thread)
Here are the steps I followed to compile and run ISSE (everything is done from an empty ISSE folder I created in /home/user/source/)

Code: Select all

git clone git://git.code.sf.net/p/isse/code isse-code
cd isse-code
git submodule init sdks/juce
git submodule init sdks/eigen
git submodule update
cd builds/Linux/
make

I had to install various libraries that were required during compilation time, maybe you won't need them

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install libfftw3-dev
sudo apt-get install libxinerama-dev

If everything is correct, you'll find the ISSE app in isse-code/builds/Linux/build/ ready to be used
