One Month In Linux Audio
This week I'm bringing you news of of updates, upgrades, and new releases in the world of Linux audio software. Development in this world is continuously productive, so I'll present only a selection of the Linux sound and music applications and utilities announced in the month of November in the year 2008.
Csound Delights
Steven Yi has updated his Java-based blue composition environment to version 0.125.0 (Figure 1), bringing more excellent tools into the Csound workshop. Notable features include a remarkable microtonal piano roll display (with support for Scala intonation files), a set of widgets for constructing synthesizer control panels, scriptability via Python, and support for nested objects and timelines. Andres Cabrera's qutecsound is a more traditional front-end GUI for Csound (Figure 2), with the added attraction of a design based upon Matt Ingall's very cool and very popular MacCsound. Qutecsound version 0.3.7 was released as I wrote this article, so I built and installed it on my notebook's Ubuntu 8.10 system. It works perfectly.
