Hi again!
Qtractor 1.6.3 (late-summer'26) is out!
Change-log:
- Fix incorrect audio clip offset after tempo change and Automatic
time-stretching is in effect.
- VST3 Plug-ins: make sure initialization and setup are done in correct
order; add IDataExchangeHandler and refactor IRunLoop interfaces as
singleton instances; connect processor/controller via ConnectionProxy
wrappers.
- Updated to VST3 SDK v3.8.1.build.84
- Possible fix to incorrect audio clips offsets when undo/redoing tempo
changes.
- Plugin latency/delay compensation is now opted in to audio buses (cf.
View/Buses... /Input, Output Plugins/Latency compensation).
- Plugins are now added/inserted *after* the current selected one and
appended to the list if none is actually selected as before.
- Fixed an ugly old bug manifesting in MIDI instrument plug-in's
dedicated audio outputs distorted sound (probably since v0.9.30).
- Updated to CLAP v1.2.10
- Fixed audio clip waveform display sudden cutoff, under certain
circumstances, while recording is engaged.
- LV2 plug-in Patch parameters/properties of the Path type, may now
filter on given supported file-types.
- Almost complete rewrite to LV2 Plug-in Worker/Schedule extension
regarding multi-instance operation.
- Mitigate an annoyance when drag-and-dropping items across plugin
list-views/boxes that are shorter enough in height to overlap the
default auto-scrolling margins or are showing less than a couple of items.
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.
