+ > KXStudio Monthly Report (February 2021)
+ On 2021-02-28 by falkTX +

+

+ Hello all, another "monthly" report about the KXStudio project is here.
+ There is not a whole lot of stuff this time around, this being a short month and also me moving to a different place.
+ But there are still some things worth reporting, so let's get to that. +

+

+ First, in case you missed it, + + Carla v2.3-RC1 was tagged and released, + marking the first PyQt-based project of mine to have automated release binaries.
+ This is crucial for having more frequent releases, as it reduces the workload that each release requires.
+ It is now basically just + + setting the commit hash + + in the + + Carla-Releases + + project, and + + wait for the builds + + to be done.
+ And speaking of Carla, a few small issues were found and already fixed, so you can expect RC2 to be out very soon. +

+

+ On non-KXStudio related news, + + Vital is now open-source.
+ Obviously I have interest on packaging it in the KXStudio repositories but, + even though the project is released under + + GPLv3, there are restrictions on the use of the name and its trademarks.
+ So the idea right now is to (im)port it over to + + DISTRHO-Ports + + project, with a change of name to Vitalium and an alternative icon made by unfa.
+ This is already on-going, with one change required which was to update the + + DISTRHO JUCE fork + + to the latest upstream v6.0.7 - + this is + + done now + (including rebasing all of + + DISTRHO JUCE patches).
+ I will write something when the porting process is over, likely doing another release of + + PawPaw + + since simply having Vitalium as cross-platform LV2 plugin is worth an update. +

+

+ Package updates in the KXStudio repositories are very few this time.
+ Basically soundtracker was added (as a special request from a friend) and Helio was updated to v3.3 (which served as a way to test the updated JUCE). +

+

+ On a final note, I am experimenting with a + + public kanban-style board.
+ Not just to organize myself a bit better, but also as a way to let everyone know what I am working on at the moment and things that I will start to do relatively soon.
+ You can see what has already been done this month so far (let's pretend we are already in March) and what might be coming soon.
+ I am still playing with colors and tags, but general idea on the colors at the moment is: +

+ +

+ I have recently been trying to get some sort of + + crowd-funding going + + (to help in terms of financial support).
+ If you are a sponsor/subscriber, you might have felt that these monthly updates are too spread out and too few.
+ So a public work-tracking board seems like a nice middle-ground, a way to indicate what is happening on a specific moment without having to wait for monthly reports or big splashy news.
+ For now you can access the board at board.kx.studio; later on I will see if it can be embed into the main website. +

+

+ If you see anything you like in there or just simply appreciate the kind of work I do, please consider a + donation.
+ I am not taking feature requests at the moment, as there is quite a few things in the backlog already, but once most of the + DPF-related + work is complete, I will revisit this idea.
+ Thank you in advance for your support, stay safe out there! +

+ +
