I launched Juced, a community driven trunk of Juce and Jucetice togheter, that mainly try to keep the base trunk up to date with bug fixes, and add new classes and things that generally couldn’t be included in the main Juce repository, also including Jost and the main Jucetice plugins out there.

If you like to contribute, improve classes, open or fix tickets, make plugins compile on other platforms feel free to register with googlecode and join the project !!

My latest system with 2.6.28 makes my mouse and keyboard skip and freeze if i open a console and type find / > /dev/null. looking at top, i get a lot of iowait time in both my cores and the overall responsiveness of the system is compromised. Can’t even select another window ! Changed configuration, changed some parameters in /proc but the result is the same. Back to 2.6.18 everything perfectly (i can span 100 find / > /dev/null and still use my system for other purposes).

I don’t who is the responsible, the developers that introduced the bugs or the (same) developers that don’t take up the kernel bug and fix it (as noted by other people in the mailing list also).

And stay away from the latest kernel !

This version is full of interesting new features, like the ability to change colours for nodes, an increased modular area, a new viewport navigator and some new simple midi processors additions…

enjoy Jost version 0.5.4 !

Cheers !

The most incredible, flexible, small, easy to use, easy to bring on stage, fast to tweak and play machine ever made on earth by man kind.

It loads VSTs, windows dll, linux natives ones and all from whatever platform you want to. Thanx to us @ Sound & Music - ProAudio, you can morph your favourite plugins into standalone gears top take with you on stage. It will be supporting Jucetice plugins on it, and i will work to make everything here available for it.

Your creativity is only limited by your imagination.

Last night i was playing with the DrumSynth stretch and tune features and my UC-16 midi control to produce a lot of cool realtime effects with a simple 909 kickdrum. And they responds very quick !
Probably i’ll make a video or a simple song explaining it.

Thanx again to Paul Kellet and his wonderful plugins !!

There is a sourceforge project here up and running !

I hope some good thing will begun in the audio area !

Ah, another new feature is the ability to connect to a 64bit jack server with jost compiled in 32bit. The idea goes to drumfix (with his wineasio-x) and i’ve taken the same code and adapted to run with jost: you will have a jostbridge process that do the bridging between jost32 and jack64 !

enjoy version 0.4.5 !

I’m working hard to make every jucetice plugin compatible with Renoise linux (yes! it’s out!) but it seems harder than what i thought: especially when it shows segmentation faults not present in jost or eXT2 with the use of the same jucetice plugins. anyway here is a bad quality video.

In the meanwhile you can test the vst version of jost in eXT2. but be careful that could be dangerous !!!

In the meanwhile, i’ve completed jost as vst, so in the next version it will be available to use it directly inside xt2 (or maybe Renoise ? Yeah we will see that cool advanced tracker for the first time on linux the days to come !). Then i’ve silently juceified nekobee, a good tb303 emulator originally development by nekosynth as a dssi plugin (i don’t know if people have problems with it, i’ve just adapted the code to be juce compliant).

On the other hands, here you can see TheDrumSynth:

It will be available soon, with a lot of other presents

Someone told me that discodsp is releasing HIS highlife sampler with a BSD license. And we need a GOOD sampler, i think Antonio will be glad to know he have done something that will be EXTREMELY useful to the community.

Things are approaching very well, even if it needs some refinements here and there, it is THOUSANDS lightyears more perfect than than many other little toys sold like gold that you can find on the net. I’ve got to decide if it’s worth including it as the default sampler for Jost.

Here is a s small shot:

Arguru this is for you.

(thanx Rock again !)

Anyway i’ll try to do as much as i can for the future versions… i promise !

What a great discover, now you’ve got a new bag of midi routing capabilities for your favourite hosts…

here they are !

Additionally, you can find a new port of audjoo-helix: it is a synth and i will say nothing more…

It is a bit hard to restart thinking about informatics, after being a month in the middle of the nature, with animals, and good people… But we’re here and so we will make the show go on… and on…

Anyway i haven’t so much to announce on my own development actually, apart some little fixes of Jost that i can’t release by now, but i’ve got a gr8 news from the plugins releases i’ve found in the JUCE forum: mucoder have released a hypercyclic crazy LFO-driven MIDI arpeggiator plugin for the KVR audio Developer Contest 2007 !!! And (obviously) made with JUCE so it is actually available for Win/Mac/Linux as AU/VST/Standalone thanx to the great framework library !

Go download it, try it and do not forget to VOTE FOR IT !!

Here is a little screen on what the new jost is bringing to us (at least the most noticeable one)…

In the darkness i’ve found the time to rewrite the graph engine, and now is more modular, faster than before and it will be possible to make it completely asynchronous in the future avoiding any suspend in the audio process block.

There are also some other fixes here and there (and even not so little ones), but this version isn’t tested as 0.3.4 (due to the hot temperature here). Anyway you should be able to compile it straight for 64bit, or if you can’t for some reason, feel free to drop me a mail.

cheers!

And gui is smooth without any glitches !

You can find the download in the Ports page. Anyway in the jacklab svn repository you can find also the sources, but since they require you have codeblocks installed to recompile the project, i’ve not posted any informations on how to do it. If you still want to recompile it by yourself you have to write me a mail…
