Season greetings to 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 is an audio/MIDI multi-track sequencer application written in C++ with the Qt framework. Target platform is Linux, where the Jack Audio Connection Kit (JACK) for audio and the Advanced Linux Sound Architecture (ALSA) 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 is now built to Qt5 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.

Hope you enjoy && have fun.
