Season greetings 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 [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.
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)
Wow! I can't wait to test that :)
And, of course, Qtractor [1] is now built to Qt5 [2] as per
configure default.
Hope you enjoy.
I know I do, thanks a lot ; Hey did you see that
by the way?

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.
