qmidiroute-0.3.0 (2009-09-20)... read more

QARecord is a simple but solid recording tool. It works well
with stereo and multichannel recordings, supporting ALSA and JACK interfaces and in both 16 bit and 32 bit mode. By using a large ringbuffer for
the captured data, buffer overruns are avoided. It has a Qt based GUI with graphical peak meters.

Changes:
qarecord-0.5.0 (2009-08-30)

New Features
o Multi channel support
o While starting a new recording an existing file is automatically
renamed
o File auto-split during recording if size of recorded file reaches a
configurable limit
o Status label added (showing "recording", "paused" or "stopped")
o Configurable minimum of VU-meter
o Buttons are disabled when clicking them makes no sense
o File/New dialog remembers last used directory
o File names automatically extended to .wav
o Application icon
o French, German and Swedish translation
o Manual pages in English, French and German
o Keyboard shortcuts for GUI items... read more

Alsa Modular Synthesizer 1.8.8 RC1

1. intro
2. what's new
3. how to build
4. future, maybe a roadmap

1. intro

In 2007 Karsten Wiese and Malte Steiner resurrected the AMS project to continue development.
Now we proudly present the first release since 2004, the version 1.8.8 RC1. Everything runs fine on our computers but we would like AMS users to try this version and to report, maybe on the ams-user mailing list or bug tracker at sourceforge, when something is broken or patches sound suddenly different.... read more

AMS is ressurected and I did some work on several aspects like usebility and efficiency. There is no 1.8.8 release yet but soon it will be ready. You might try to compile AMS from CVS to enjoy the latest improvements anyway and I would be glad to get feedback.
I will be in Berlin on Linux Audio Conference and maybe we will meet there.
