Hello LAD,
New releases of Aeolus and JAAA are available at the usual place : <users.skynet.be/solaris/linuxaudio>. >From the Aeolus-0.3.1 README : * Added 'instability'. Each pipe is individually phase modulated in order to emulate the random fluctuations in a real one. This provides for a much more natural sound, in particular for long sustained notes. CPU load has gone up a bit, but not too much. * New reverb. Comments invited. * Added stereo position slider. Internally Aeolus uses a full 3-D sound format (which you can use with the -B, -C 4 or -C 8 options). The stereo output is derived from a 'virtual stereo microphone' placed in the 3-D sound field. The apparent position can be set anywhere between 'back' and 'front'. * Divisions II and III can now be put at the back. * Wavetables can now be saved to disk. They will be used when Aeolus is later started with the same sample frequency and tuning, giving 'immediate satisfaction'. * New option -W <directory> to select the wavetables loaded on start. * New default colors, a bit warmer than before. * Added -name <name> option, this permits multiple instances when running under JACK. * New 32" stop. In fact just the Trombone 16 scaled down by one octave and tweaked a bit, but quite spectacular if your speakers can handle it. There's also a new demo file, Xmas.ogg (I know it's a bit early :-). For JAAA-0.1.2 : * Added -name <name> option, this permits multiple instances when running under JACK. Both apps need an update of clxclient.so, version 1.0.1. Enjoy ! -- Fons
