We've just released Ardour 7.2. Not many big new features this time, but it's a nice balance between bug fixes and various improvements.

You can now use MIDI Learn for trigger slots, easily discover Ardour in TouchOSC, import and export Opus files, import MIDI Lyrics.

There have also been UX improvements, notably in the region bouncing feature.

Oh, and we've eliminated a lot of crashes when editing the tempo map!

Firefox surely does not want people using WebMIDI...
Why is this prompt so different from all the others that ask for permission??

WebMIDI does work in FF 108 after you accept to install the extra addon for each site specifically, but damn couldn't it be a bit less scary? 😱

wondering if it is just me, or if others feel a similar problem..

week by week the number of unhandled emails increases, way too many discussions and tickets to reply to.
not sure if the number will ever start to go down at this point 😔

SurgeXT is now in Cardinal!
(together with MildMeld PatchMaster and stoermelder-packone too!)

Just updated the web version so you can try it out without installing.

See for a demo patch by JTB
Press "run" in the top-left module to begin the waves 🌊 🌊

Mastodon which is incredibly hot, supports RSS beautifully.

Just add .rss to any account to get the feed. Amazing!

mastodon.social/@davew.rss

Open that in your favorite feed reader. It’ll work.

Post a screenshot, say what the reader app is.

And pass this on to everyone who uses a feed reader.

Spread the word!

This is a huge deal for the open web.

oh I forgot to give the magic link! 🤦‍♂️
Try it out in cardinal.kx.studio/ 🚋 🚋 🚋

This is kinda cool, getting modules working on Cardinal means we immediately get them working on the browser too (assuming they dont do fancy thread stuff, which most don't)

new stoermelder modules? got it!

update befaco to bring pony-vco,? cool, now it runs on the browser too!

update mindmeld to get patchmaster? yep, loaded in browser!

for showing off and trying random things, this is quite cool.

Cardinal 22.11 has been released!

kx.studio/News/?action=view&ur

#Cardinal could be described as #VCVrack in a box" - an #audio #plugin packed with #OpenSource modules that allows you to build modular patches, effects, #synthesizers and whatnot and have them conveniently packaged in a plug-in. Unless you explicitly load external plug-ins (via the Ildaeil module) the patches are completely self-contained and perfectly portable.

Lately I've been synthesizing car engine audio assets for a game with it.

Hello Fediverse, happy to join you :) Robin Gareus recently added a tiny nostalgic feature: importing lyrics from MIDI files as region markers. The "Import MIDI markers" checkbox has to be on. You can also convert those to location markers and then clean up region markers. The new feature is coming in v7.2 soon.

Another Cardinal release, 22.11, featuring proper module processing order and some important bugfixes

Enjoy! 🐦

@hisham_hm we got this real life location in Czech republic. Never visited it (not counting one ride trough their train station).

I am really sick and tired of these "the fediverse and what is wrong with it" posts promoting podcasts etc. This is all still deeply embedded in the algorithmic approach of centralised services that promote negativity to sell advertisement space. Don't do that. There's a better way. Offer solutions, not more problems. Le Sigh.
