2011 is very nearly over - I was kinda hoping Ardour 3 would have had
a stable release by now which obviously hasn't happened but at least
it has made huge leaps in stability and functionality this year; I
wasn't hedging my bets on it being done by now to be honest but
congrats to all involved for their continued hard work anyway!
Afaik A3 gets good reviews, also in terms of workflow. So far so good.
Apart
from A3 going beta, other notable FLOSS audio highlights for me this
year have been the release of OpenOctave MIDI which would seem to have
forked MuSE to very rapidly become the most professional FLOSS MIDI
sequencer and TYOQA actually happened! Whoop! Things are really
starting to heat up in the FLOSS DAW world and we have a few real good
choices now!
+1
This year also saw a stable JACK release complete with JACK session
support and Nedko has just released v1 of LADISH - both of these
technologies are much needed for having a nice workflow when using
multiple standalone JACK apps to create music but I hope that in 2012
JACK session managers such as these will become a largely unrequired,
legacy aspect of Linux audio because instead we will hopefully have a
good selection of LV2 plugins to do what currently requires standalone
JACK apps.
JackSession makes my life more easy. I'm happy with it and hope it will
be improved and more widely supported in 2012.
LV2 is a other thing which is improved a lot in 2011, very important for
Linuxaudio.
It would be good if Renoise would support LV2 soon.
Other things on my wishlist for 2012 ;)
- Musicxml export for Lilypond
- JackSession more widely supported (so far so good)
- Pianoteq, Renoise etc. with LV2 support
- Adding bends to tablature functionality in Lilypond
- JACK 3 :)
- Improved SFZ support in LinuxSampler
Happy Christmas Linux Audio land!
Merry Christmas indeed!
