Hello, world!
Following recent changes at Twitter, the new home of the X.Org Foundation is here on Mastodon. Please follow for the latest in the Linux graphics world and the freedesktop.org community. Going forward, we will no longer post to Twitter, but we're so excited to join the Fediverse!
and it should work on Chrome now too!
on the topic of running things on the browser, who wants some LV2 plugins?
let's say in between some of them ZynAddSubFX? 😱
No UI for now, just the engine and a selection of presets, playable through WebMIDI.
Some throw an exception when loaded, but most seem to work
Also I need to handle MIDI timing properly...
That said:
1. Load https://ildaeil.kx.studio/ in Firefox (Chrome not supported)
2. Select ZynAddSubFX, press "Load Plugin"
3. Press "Enable MIDI"
4. Select a preset and play
Enjoy? 😅
Cardinal on the web randomly got some attention via
https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35794758
So I wonder how many people out there still do not know this is a thing...
The full Cardinal (basically a more free version of VCV Rack, with all modules built-in) running directly on a web browser at https://cardinal.kx.studio/
I recently updated it so that on browsers that dont support wasm-simd (webkit-based ones like Safari) will load a slower but still compatible variant.
So in theory it works under iOS, didnt test.

I'm really wondering what the terrible, non-open future looks like.

To make anyone of you go ballistic on how bad this currently looks, put it into context to what current-gen Qualcomm smartphones are doing:
https://www.theverge.com/22811740/qualcomm-snapdragon-8-gen-1-always-on-camera-privacy-security-concerns
A phone that calls home on hardware level with always-on mic AND cameras and the ability to analyze that data using the inbuilt NPU (Neural Processing Unit)? Oh boy, do I feel safer now.

Something that has been brewing in the last few weeks...

This is a (bass/guitar-focused) Amp Model Player audio plugin, basically it loads AI trained models to realistically simulate an audio effect (amp, cab, dist, drive, fuzz, boost and eq).
Available as AU/CLAP/LV2/VST2/VST3 and Standalone.
Done in partnership with AIDA-DSP and MOD Audio.
Enjoy!
I realize I should have said more details about it, let me reedit and repost, sorry!

In case you didn't know, I am integrating my carla plugin host into OBS, so we can load all sorts of audio plugins directly in it.
my intention is to reuse Carla components as much as possible, both improving Carla and getting a very welcome feature into OBS at the same time.
it is progressing going quite well, with already stuff to show.
still a fair bit of things to do too but I am hopeful to get it into shape very soon! 🐎
see https://github.com/obsproject/obs-studio/discussions/5074 for more details

New in the Rolling Release: We've introduced master_me (a free and open-source audio post-processing tool) support as a first-class option in our web UI.
We've reworked our entire Post-Processing section of the station profile form to better explain what it does, to add more flexibility about where it applies, and to let you choose from several handy presets. If StereoTool is installed, you will also see it here and have the option to use it, but master_me will ship with all AzuraCast installs.
A little update on that AI model player project made together with Aida DSP folks:
https://github.com/AidaDSP/AIDA-X/releases/tag/0.2.0
As in, an update with some fixes and loading more model types.
Give it some testing if you can, you can find premade models and other resources in https://forum.mod.audio/c/neural/62
Just a few more days and we will tag 1.0. There is some promotional video stuff happening at the same time, to try to make it a splashy release 🎆 🎇 ❇️ ✨
A slightly better showcase.. picking and loading plugins works now 😎

This joke is from 1974 (in *Computer Lib*). It only took 50 years to build.
