<span style="font-size: 20px">> KXStudio Monthly Report (November 2019)</span><br/> |

Hello all, today is November 15, a Linux/Libre-Audio release day.<br/> |
|
|
|
I do not have anything to actually release (that is ready anyway), so I thought to instead start something new.<br/> |
|
|
|
</p> |
|
|
|
<p> |
|
|
|
Every month, starting with this one, we will have a monthly report regarding the latest stuff in KXStudio.<br/> |
|
|
|
This will involve new releases, package updates to its repositories, important bug-fixes and short-term plans.<br/> |
|
|
|
So let's begin... |
|
|
|
</p> |
|
|
|
<p> |
|
|
|
First of all, in case you somehow missed it, |
|
|
|
<a href="https://kx.studio/News/?action=view&url=jack2-v1913-release"> |
|
|
|
a new JACK2 release is here</a>!<br/> |
|
|
|
This finally brings meta-data support into JACK2. More information about meta-data in JACK can be found |
|
|
|
<a href="https://jackaudio.org/metadata/" target="_blank"> |

|
|
here</a>.<br/> |
|
|
|

|
|
|
On the repositories, "helm" package had an issue where the plugin could not find its own presets.<br/> |
|
|
|
(This was caused due to KXStudio repositories going ahead on renaming "helm" to "Helm" as the former already exists)<br/> |

|
|
|
ZynAddSubFX got (re-)added, using its nice and fancy Zyn-Fusion UI.<br/> |
|
|
|
In the old repositories there was "zynaddsubfx" for old UI, and "zynaddsubfx-git" for the new one.<br/> |
|
|
|
The "git" package is gone, only "zynaddsubfx" is there now and it has the new UI. +1 for progress!<br/> |
|
|
|
<br style="line-height:0.5em"/> |
|
|
|
x42-plugins got updated to 20191013 release, and Patroneo was added.<br/> |
|
|
|
Patroneo was a tricky one since it uses python libraries. In order to make it a generic package I resorted to cxfreeze which makes it run independent of the system python.<br/> |
|
|
|
</p> |
|
|
|
<p> |
|
|
|
Coming soon is Carla 2.1-beta1.<br/> |
|
|
|
The actual software is ready for the beta1 release, but setting up the infrastructure for an updated Qt5 build is taking longer than expected.<br/> |
|
|
|
The current 2.0 builds use quite an old Qt version: Qt5.5 on macOS, Qt4(!) on Linux, which I do not accept for new releases going forward.<br/> |
|
|
|
Windows builds are ready to go though, you can find test binaries on Carla's |
|
|
|
<a href="https://github.com/falkTX/Carla/releases"> |
|
|
|
github</a>.<br/> |
|
|
|
Once I finish setting up the builds for Linux and macOS, I will make the announcement. Very likely in mid-November. |

<a href="https://www.sonoj.org/" target="_blank"> |
|
|
|
Sonoj |
|
|
|
</a> |
|
|
|
is coming!<br/> |
|
|
|
Sonoj is an annual event/convention in Cologne, Germany, about music production with free and open source software.<br/> |
|
|
|
It features demonstrations, talks and hands-on workshops.<br/> |
|
|
|
You can meet like-minded people, learn insider knowledge and tricks, participate in their one-hour production challenge!<br/> |
|
|
|
It is only a few days from now, so please get ready! :)<br/> |
|
|
|
I will be doing a talk in Sonoj about the past, present and future of JACK.<br/> |
|
|
|
So please come and say hi, registration is free!<br/> |
