Hi, twice again!

Qtractor 1.6.4 (late-summer'26 hotfix) is released!

Change-log:

• Fixed a relatively recent crash-bug introduced to Clip/Merge... as a undesired side-effect from fixing that older bug on Clip/Normalize (as of late v1.6.1)

Qtractor 1.6.3 - A Late-Summer'26 Release

Description:

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.

Hi all,

The Vee One Suite, the gang-of-four 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.

Are here updated to the (northern) Spring'26 season...

Still delivered in dual form:

• a pure stand-alone JACK client with JACK-session, NSM (Non/New Session Management) and both JACK MIDI and ALSA MIDI input support;
• a LV2 instrument plug-in.

Change-log:

• Fixed an old freezer bug that manifested whenever a MIDI Program Change is issued.
• Vastly improved Bank/Preset management widgets.
• Fixed a terribly old multiple LV2 plug-in instance mess up. (padthv1 only)
• Fixed wrong (Scala) key-map file setter on the Tuning loader.
• Added file-types property to LV2 plug-in Path parameters.
• Opening/loading sample file of an empty element revisited (last fix on LV2 Plug-in GUI broke the whole JACK stand-alone element navigation, now fixed). (drumkv1 only)

Hi again!

QmidiCtl 1.0.3 (mid-spring'26) is out!

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.

See also: QmidiNet - A MIDI network gateway via UDP/IP multicast.

Change-log:

• Get rid of CONFIG_WAYLAND build config option; add underlying platform name (eg. xcb, wayland) to Qt version string.
• Bumping into next development cycle (Qt >= 6.11)

Hi everyone!

QmidiNet 1.0.2 (mid-spring'26) is released!

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.

Change-log:

• Get rid of CONFIG_WAYLAND build config option; add underlying platform name (eg. xcb, wayland) to Qt version string.

Hi again!

QXGEdit 1.0.2 (mid-spring'26) is out!

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.

Change-log:

Hi y'all!

QjackCtl 1.0.6 (spring'26) is released!

Change-log:

• Graph: make sure thumb-view widget background is filled/opaque (ie. not transparent)
• Fixed JACK metadata properties assignment (aka. pretty-names) vs. native client/port name aliases.

Hello y'all!
