Object-oriented Python bindings for the vorbis library
PyTone is a music jukebox written in Python with a curses based GUI.
While providing advanced features like crossfading and multiple players,
special emphasis is put on ease of use, turning PyTone into an ideal
jukebox system for use at parties.
QjackCtl is a simple Qt application to control the JACK sound server
daemon. It provides a simple GUI dialog for setting several JACK daemon
parameters, which are properly saved between sessions, and a way
to control of the status of the audio server daemon. With time,
this primordial interface has become richer by including a enhanced
patchbay and connection control features.
Qt-based front end to LinuxSampler.
Qsynth is a fluidsynth GUI front-end application written in C++ around
the Qt toolkit using Qt Designer. Eventually it may evolve into a
softsynth management application allowing the user to control and manage
a variety of command line softsynth but for the moment it wraps the
excellent FluidSynth.
Raul (Realtime Audio Utility Library) is a C++ utility library
primarily aimed at audio/musical applications.
It is used by Ingen, Patchage, and Machina.
rawrec provides a simple, minimalist way to record or play back raw audio
data from the command line. It can work with files or standard IO, and so
can provide a simple buffered shell audio interface for other programs.
This set of utilities and driver have been written so that Linux, FreeBSD,
OpenBSD and NetBSD users can use their Rio500 without the need to reboot
to 'that other OS'.
Csound is a programming language designed and optimized for sound rendering and
signal processing. The language consists of over 450 opcodes - the operational
codes that the sound designer uses to build "instruments" or patches.
Although there are an increasing number of graphical "front-ends" for the
language, you typically design and modify your patches using a word processor.
Usually, you create two text files - a .orc (orchestra) file containing the
"instruments," and a .sco (score) file containing the "notes."
In Csound, the complexity of your patches is limited by your knowledge,
interest, and need, but never by the language itself. For instance, a 22,050
oscillator additive synthesizer with 1024 stage envelope generators on each is
merely a copy-and-paste operation. The same goes for a 1 million voice
granular texture!
Have you ever dreamed of sounds such as these? Well in Csound you can. And in
Csound these dreams can come true!
rioutil is a utility designed for the use of interfacing with Sonic
Blue/dnna's third, fourth, and fifth generations of flash MP3 players
(Rio 600/800/900/S-Series/Riot/Cali/Chiba/Fuse and Nike psa[play).
On many players, it goes beyond the packaged software by providing
downloading.
