Season greetings y'all, As cheesy as it might go, as a must already, Qtractor 0.7.2 (tacky gluon beta) is out! Quite frankly, there's nothing really stopping you from an upgrade or rather update to taste! :) Qtractor [1] is an audio/MIDI multi-track sequencer application written in C++ with the Qt framework [2]. Target platform is Linux, where the Jack Audio Connection Kit (JACK [3]) for audio and the Advanced Linux Sound Architecture (ALSA [4]) for MIDI are the main infrastructures to evolve as a fairly-featured Linux desktop audio workstation GUI, specially dedicated to the personal home-studio. Major highlights for this dot release are: * MIDI Track/Instrument bank/programs menu (NEW) * VST plug-ins preset/bank (FXP/FXB) files support (NEW) * Duplicate track menu command (NEW) * XRUN status bar indicator (NEW) And, of course, Qtractor [1] is now built to Qt5 [2] as per configure default. Hope you enjoy.

Change-log: - Yet another audio/MIDI time drift correction fix, now giving it some slack while turnaround looping on tempo changes. - Prevent x11extras module from use on non-X11/Unix platforms. - MIDI Track/Instrument cascading pop-up menus have been added, to main and MIDI clip editor windows. - VST Plugin preset/bank files support (FXB/FXP) is now being integrated to the generic Plugin/Properties widget dialog. - Added new Track/Duplicate menu command. - Added simple XRUN red indicator to status bar. - Make sure program change/presets are not selected on possibly multi-timbral instrument plugins when inserted on a MIDI bus. - Prefer Qt5 over Qt4 by default with configure script. - Fixed a potential crash-bug on first enabling either once the audio or MIDI metronomes.
