[Qtractor-devel] [ANN] Qtractor 0.9.6 - The Pre-LAC2019 Release Frenzy wrap-up!

[Rui N. C. <rn...@rn...>]

Hi again,

For last but not least and concluding the so called traditional
pre-LAC2019 [8] release frenzy:

  Qtractor 0.9.6 (pre-lac2019) is released!

Here the last changes included for this wrap-up release:
- Fixed LV2 UI Touch feature/interface implementation.
- Plugin latency/delay compensation is now introduced as an option to
tracks only (cf. Track/Properties.../Latency compensation).
- Refactored all singleton/unique application instance setup logic away
from X11/Xcb hackery.
- A bit lesser of a naive file-name numbering is now in place to avoid
as much as possible, the piling up of internal curve/automation files
when saving  existing sessions.
- Maybe just informational but the original MIDI file format is now
correctly reported across ref-counted linked MIDI clips.

Description:
  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.
