Darkglass Electron announced Anagram, a multi-FX processor for the bass. It runs embedded Linux, uses open-source neural modeling tech, and relies on an LV2 plugins host and some FOSS plugins. @falktx is one of the fathers :)

Very glad and proud to be part of #darkglass team. π
Since I am the only one in the company that has dealt with opensource software licenses before, I am the one doing the page that lists the licenses used.
There's so much stuff hah π±
How it looks so far: https://www.darkglass.com/pablito-licenses/
Still WIP, but what do you think?
Specially interested on opinions from other opensource developers.
Thanks for the feedback in advance!
Typical audio graph setup on the new Darkglass Anagram.
Some of the FX there are "static" like the globaleq, mixer and looper.
All of it running at 16 frames / 48kHz. Total IO roundtrip latency being 1.333ms (some FX do oversampling and introduce a bit more latency).
This preset runs with around 30% CPU load.
Not shown on graph: USB and Bluetooth audio, coming soon.
After pretty much 1 year of work the result is finally public.
For those that don't know, in early 2024 I joined the Darkglass Electronics company. Bringing the expertise developed through many years with MOD Devices / MOD Audio and my own projects, and started to create together with them a super fancy new Linux-embed based product.
This runs JACK2 inside with mod-host and LV2 plugins. Very soon to start opening up to external plugin developers.
Very exciting! π
A teaser video of an upcoming product... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k18pJAMYSTA
The results of ~1 year of work finally becoming public.
Real announcement later in the month.
Found a nice way to quickly test the webview handling in DPF - a very minimal web browser plugin UI with a manual URL entry! π±
Loading the online plugin project page inside the plugin itself π
I know, nobody asked for this, but its a nice way to test that the feature works. More of a dev tool than being useful for end users.
It's also cool :)
If anybody wants to try: https://github.com/DISTRHO/dear-plugins
Loading Linux plugins on Windows hosts through Wine.
Because a half-step is better than no step.
To be more clear... it's hard to leave FL behind but don't really want to dual-boot or starting relying on Windows plugins.
Its possible to do plugins such that:
- Windows host loads a small shim
- shim loads Linux plugin
- do some little odd XEmbed things to get UIs on Windows host side too
I might make this a "use it if you want, no support whatsoever" project, because Wine breaks too often... π€

Surely this new video won't make me seem like a crank.

Installed https://jellyfin.org/ today and I am quite surprised how well it works. π
Playing media files feels instant, unlike nextcloud that takes several seconds to start video playback...
And finally something for group watching π π
Also handles music quite nicely.
Makes me want to buy more now haha
Can recommend! #jellyfin
