Hi all,
Qtractor 1.6.0 (spring'26) is released!
Change-log:
- Probable fix to LV2 plug-in UIs in reflecting state/preset changes
visually.
- OSC (Open Sound Control) support has been finally introduced, similar
to keyboard and MIDI controller shortcuts, it allows the discrete
mapping of OSC handlers to any main menu command actions (cf.
View/Options.../OSC)
- Fixed move/copy of Audio/MIDI Insert pseudo-plugins to keep their
respective send/return connections.
- Improved main session File/Save As... requester dialogs, now taking
into a better account the selected file type filters: Default session
files (*.qtr), Regular session files (*.qts), Template session files
(*.qtt) and Archive/zip session files (*.qtz); drop useless All files
(*.*) filter.
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.
