This is to announce a new release (2.8.0) of the Kangas Sound Editor and the Kangas Sound Editor QI. The Kangas Sound Editor is a Kangaroo-themed program that allows the user to create music and sound effects. It uses a system of frequency ratios for pitch control, rather than conventional music notation and equal temperament. It allows instruments, both musical and percussion, to be created. The 2.8.0 release has had some improvements in the handling of volume changes for repetition groups (successive repetitions of chord groups, sounds etc. can increase or decrease in volume, the mechanism for this has been improved). There have also been some improvements in the installer and uninstaller, most noticeably for the Kangas Sound Editor QI, in order to make these tasks easier. The Kangas Sound Editor QI uses the HSQLDB database engine (http://sourceforge.net/projects/hsqldb), whereas the Kangas Sound Editor uses the MySQL Community Edition database engine (http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/5.0.html). The home page for the Kangas Sound Editor on SourceForge is here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/kangasound The latest downloads for the Kangas Sound Editor and the Kangas Sound Editor QI can be found here: http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=196975 The home page for the Kangas Sound Editor is at http://www.kangasound.com. There you can find downloads, a detailed change history, an on-line tutorial and videos, including the first of a number of planned video tutorials. The Kangas Sound Editor has been used in the creation of two CDs, where the instruments and sounds (except vocals) are entirely Kangas Sound Editor generated: http://cdbaby.com/cd/kangas (instrumental, created using an early version of the Kangas Sound Editor). http://cdbaby.com/cd/sarahellenhughes (backing track and mixing done using a more recent version of the Kangas Sound Editor).
