Once more we've decided enough is enough, time to crank out a proper release, enter MusE 3.1!
As per usual, more years than we care to recount has passed since the last one. And, as per usual a lot of things has been brewing during this time.
Among the bigger features since 3.0 is the inclusion of a Plugin cache. This has two benefits, scanning of plugins are no longer done on a standard startup, making the startup a lot faster. Also the scanning is done in a separate process so no more crashes during startup due to issues with plugins.
Here is a short list of other prominent changes since 3.0:
- Metronome improved, a lot of new settings
- reawakened pre count!
- Auto-connect metronome to first audio output track.
- General plugins improvements
- Effect rack extended to 8 plugins instead of 4
- Generic plugin UI: Added 'Quirks' buttons to toolbar
- LV2 plugins
- Fix sequencing/syncing plugins (Helm, LV2 metronome, NoiseMak3r...)
- Rewrite of state/worker support and more, fixes several synths:
- Fix plugins using worker extension, such as *v1 suite (drumkv1 etc.)
- Removed ALL internal LV2 support. Too hard to maintain.
- Fixed LV2 X11 GUI size.
- MidNam support
- VST plugins
- Fix # 708: Surge-vst crashes.
- DSSI/VST
- DSSI-VST was recently found to be working on recent kernels.
There's now a plugin tab for configuring the initialization of this support from inside MusE
- DSSI-VST was recently found to be working on recent kernels.
- LADSPA plugins
- Ladspa RDF (lrdf) support.
- A lot of UI changes for better consistency and usability, menus, toolbars.
- Many many under the hood changes for more consistency and lower cpu usage in the editors
- Better support for HiDPI screens
- Lots and lots of new keyboard shortcuts and now a search field in the shortcut dialog to make it easier to locate shortcuts also.
- Many many new vectorized icons
- More colors in UI customizable, including for stylesheets
- Settings dialog redesigned to make it easier to navigate.
- Double click on track ID selects all tracks of the same type
- Transport window slightly redesigned
- Improvements to midi timing
- Global cut/insert improvements, fixes crashes with markers
- Rewind on stop setting
- Realtime time-stretch and samplerate-stretch conversion. An embryo for this functionality exist in the Wave editor, check out the new button on the tool bar. Do consider it is not finished though.
- Latency correction / compensation. In the settings there is a new tab with settings for latency compensation. Finally MusE can compensate for delays in the audio chain to keep everything in sync. This feature is not turned on by default as there are some nagging bugs that you need to be aware of, see bugs:
- https://github.com/muse-sequencer/muse/issues/767 - looping audio does not work
- https://github.com/muse-sequencer/muse/issues/682 - midi note on the start beat where you press play is not played

For some reason, which I can't quite put my finger on, it seems it's been more than five years since the last set of tutorial videos were released here. With the release of MusE 2.2 it was high time to make some new ones. Head on over to the Tutorials page and check it out.
Helping us create more videos is very much encouraged. Also suggestions on things to show in a video tutorial are welcome, when you are close something it's sometimes hard to tell what people find troublesome. Just drop us a note in the forum!
Hi All!
Following our plan of making monthly releases. Ah, I mean yearly releases...
Well, actually, it's been nearly two years since last stable release. Sorry.
Here we are anyway with a new release of MusE, and we think it's a good one!
Since last we have moved to github and Andrew has joined the team to, among
other things implement LV2 support, which he has done excellently. We are
quite happy with the current state and music has been recorded with MusE like
never before, some demonstrations are listed below.
Major feature improvements of this release includes:
- Support for LV2 Synths and effects
- effects are supported both in Effect rack and in Arranger
- State interface
- Worker interface.
- Instance-access.
- KX studio Programs interface + extended programs interface to support per-channel bank/patch change (only Yoshimi now supports this feature).
- Common must-have features: Atom, buf-size, event, options, uri-map, urid.
- Other extensions: CV type lv2 ports
- LV2_TIME__Position
- Atom_Event_Transfer support for plugin<->UI communication
- LV2 path MAP and MAKE extensions
- LV2 LOG extension
- UI interface. Supported UI subtypes:
- QT4
- GTK2
- GTKMM2
- X11
- External interfaces (from kx studio specs).
- idle callbacks
- Yet another MAJOR audio engine and plugin/synth process chain re-write
- Track controllers (vol, pan) now sample-accurate and near noise-less
- Metronome with accent clicks and replaceable clicks
- Synths rearranged in separate menus
- Reworked the PluginDialog to use a ui file and give more filter possibilities
- Added [HOME] button to file open dialog
- Ignore undo/redo while recording
- Fix crash reported by LakeIshikawa: Pressing delete while clicking or dragging events or parts
- Fixed copy/paste problem: Paste copies not clones, if the original parts/tracks have been deleted.
- More commands support Undo/Redo, like setting global tempo.
- Some new scripts, RemoveAftertouch, TempoDelay
- Fix song not 'dirty' on many operations (close was not prompting to save).
- Instrument Editor now basically complete: Added Initialization Sequence editor.
- Sysex event editor now allows selection from pre-defined Instrument Sysex list.
- Revised and edited Roland SD-50.idf by Patrick (split into GM2/nonGM2).
- MusE now imports GM2 midi files. (Properly selects GM2 instrument.)
- Added a visual metronome to Bigtime
- Added line drawing of tempo in graphical master track editor
- Fixed bug (issue #342 Moving Aux sends crashes muse)
- Added more keyboard shortcuts in midi editors
- Mods/fixes to Midi Input Transformator plugin:
- When midi in is enabled in drum editor the selected track is moved along with the triggered key
- Fixed bug with playback of drums clicking on notes in the new drum editor, it was playing the wrong instrument
- MESS synths (esp Deicsonze): Controls (like Track Info program) and synth controls now mirror each other, both ways.
- Deicsonze softsynth: Fixed: Not remembering settings + ladspa plugin settings, midi controllers moved to NRPN14 type.
- Native VST: Call idle periodically. Makes some plugins like Glitch work, as per LAD mail.
- Change window title when there are unsaved changes

As so often happens around here, features creep in ;)
Tim has been hard at work adding native VST support and it went
a bit faster than anticipated so why not include it?
Also, there's been some bugfixes see the changelog for more information.

We now have a forum (tada!, we have finally entered the new millenium) as an alternative discussion medium. It is available here: http://sourceforge.net/apps/phpbb/lmuse/
It's already a new year! Happy new year folks. Here in MusE-land we are relentlessly working towards a 2.0 version of MusE, finally built on Qt4.
On the screenshots page there are some shots of the current svn version in action, doing what it's supposed to do, create music!
Ok I admit it, it's arranged (aaah, the pun is killing me) but it's all authentic playback through MusE with some of my favourite synths.
There is now a branch of MusE2 in svn http://lmuse.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/lmuse/branches/muse2-oom/ for the Open Octave Project. Open Octave is a tool pipeline for professional orchestration use, read more at http://www.openoctave.org. We hope that the feature and usability additions added in that branch will be a valuable addition to mainline MusE soon.
We have a present for you, a new release of MusE.
The alpha indicates this is an early version so it's mainly
- a teaser to spread the word.
- an early adopters build.
- to welcome developers who want to port MusE to other platforms.
MusE has now been completely ported to the Qt4 architecture and we (mainly Tim and Orcan)
are busy to make it even better than before, lots of gui stuff being reworked.
MusE now also sports a new version of the DeicsOnze, DX11 emulating softsynth, up from version 0.2 to 1.0.
The homepage has received a new look that we hope will give a better indication of what MusE is and does.

Right on the heels of big One-O we've decided to release a minor update with some corrections.
- Removed: Disabled watchdog thread. (T356)
- Changed/Fixed: Thread priorites: Added command line switches for audio (-P) and midi (-Y). (T356)
- Audio (-P) applies to dummy driver only. (Else audio priority is fixed by Jack). Fixes potential issue with midi timing when MusE was assigned a very high priority.
- Added: Enable/disable LASH command line switch (-L), (if LASH support is compiled in). (T356)
- Helps prevent some issues like auto-starting Jack, or automatically routing midi to fluidsynth (observed).
- Fixed: BUG ID: 2879426: *.med does not save meta event types. (T356)
- Fixed: Midi meters now show for each track even if they're all on same device and channel. (T356)
- Applied: muse-destdir.patch Scripts and utils packaging fix submitted by Orcan Ogetbil. (T356)
- Fixed: python detection exchanged for script from http://libvirt.org/ (rj)
- Feature: Jack transport enable/disable in Midi Sync settings window. Stores setting per-song. (T356)
- Should be Ok to use and test. Needs a bit more work. See jack.cpp and jackaudio.h

Sometime ago the first release candidate for MusE 1.0 was released.
IMPORTANT NOTICE:
There has been an internal version renaming resulting in that what was previously released as MusE 1.0alpha is now retargeted as MusE 2.0. Hence the current MusE 1.0rc1 is a continuation of 0.9
Lots of work has gone into this release, mainly on the midi side.
For a full list of changes from the ChangeLog either download the package and check the ChangeLog file or follow this link to the sourceforge page:
http://sourceforge.net/project/shownotes.php?release_id=658760&group_id=93414
The download is available at:
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=93414&package_id=308864&release_id=658760
You wonder what is going on? Actually a lot! If you are interested in what new features will be in the MusE 2.0 release read on!
Plans for the coming releases:
* MusE 0.x-1.x (which uses Qt3)
o a lot of effort is placed here still (since it is the only working version right now)
o can be ported to Mac OS X and parts were already ported
o can NOT be ported to Windows XP as open source project
o using CVS (NO svn support for this series)
o 1.0 release is already in plans
- MusE 2.x (which is the first version which will use Qt4 instead of Qt3)
- new toolkit -> Qt4
- new support for jack midi instead of alsa midi which fixes some timing issues
- new midi routing code
- midi plugins (midi delay, timing effects of all kind...)
- cmake instead of autotools (with out-of-source- build, so the directories with the .c and .h files will no longer be populated by .o and misc compiler files)
o gcc 4.x use
o new "project" paradigm
o "auto fill" parts (create a part and fill it with an n-bar pattern. If you resize the part
the pattern is looped to always fill the part.)
o DSSI support
o controller automation (in arranger)
o parts and events are updated in realtime during recording (in arranger)
o audio metronome
o support for VSTi plugins
o using SVN for version management (NO cvs support for this series)
o can be ported to Windows XP/(Vista?)
o can be ported to Mac OS X
o no usable release was made yet
Finally, after what does seem like ages (mainly because there literally has been ages) since the last release, here is finally what we have decided to call MusE 0.9!
The download is available at: http://sourceforge.net/projects/lmuse/

Please report bugs and/or feature requests to the tracker (http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=93414).
The MusE-Sequencer Homepage will be completely redesigned so in the next couple of days there might be some strange things going on. We are sorry for that ;-)
Current goals are: - new menu structure - image upload in the wiki - most things except news/main page should be moved in the wiki because then everyone with a wiki account can edit it. That's all so far.
Have Fun
Hot on the heels of prerelease of the latest stable incarnation 0.9pre2 comes a first preview of the coming MusE 1.0!
A disclaimer: - It's not finished - It's buggy - It may not compile on your system - It may cause (insert favourite error) But it contains a lot of rework of the internals and externals of MusE, so if you want to dive in and help us improve it please do so!
Some information adapted from the README Requirements: CMAKE 2.4 QT 4.2 GCC 4.x JACK 0.102.20 (actually not in the README but should be there)
To build it: - unpack the sources - run 'cmake' in the base directory - run 'make' - run 'make install'
Some features adapted from the NEWS file: - new "project" paradigma - "auto fill" parts - DSSI support - JACK midi support - graphical controller automation in arranger - audio metronome - support for VST plugins - new midi routing code - midi plugins - parts and events are updated in realtime during recording - new look
Go to http://sourceforge.net/projects/lmuse to download.
This is the second prerelease of MusE 0.9. More fixes after bug reports and other winter cleaning, happy testing.
Be sure to report your findings here or (preferably) file a bug report on the tracker (http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=93414).

This is the first prerelease of MusE 0.9.
The main feature improvement in 0.9 is the addition of plugin automation as well as fixes to the already present automation features (they actually work now). There is no graphical automation editor as will be present in 1.0, all automatable parameters do however have a right click menu as a working replacement.
There is usage information concerning automation embedded in the ChangeLog so be sure to read the relevant parts. There are also a bunch of other fixes and improvements, check the ChangeLog for a complete list.
For those about to R^Dtest, be sure to report your findings here or (preferably) file a bug report on the tracker (http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=93414). There are known bugs (see tracker), some of which we still are trying to fix, we do however want your feedback as to all unknown issues.

Hi all,
the MusE cvs head branch has now moved to subversion. The cvs repository still exists but you should not commit anything new to it. For instructions on how to get the code from svn please look at the sourceforge project web page http://sourceforge.net/projects/lmuse
Another big change is the transition from automake/autoconf/libtools to Cmake (www.cmake.org). The simple reason for choosing cmake instead of scons is that the kde team decided to use it. If you try to build MusE with cmake, an "out of source" build is strongly recommended (look at the "gen" script).
Next development will be the handling of "projects". The "File" functions (Open/New/SaveAs etc.) will be replaced by project functions. A MusE project is a subdirectory containing the project file (*.med) and all waves etc. When MusE is running, it is always connected to a project. So on startup the user has to select a project or create a new one. This means also that you cannot simply load a midi file with muse from command line. Instead you first need to create a project and then you can import a midi file. The details are not fixed yet..
Regards, Werner
Forgot the LAC this year? Didn't have time to come? Poor you, it was fantastic!
The first day at the LAC (in Karlsruhe, ZKM) showed that the same participants as in 2005 were there - which is a good thing! But nobody was missing you ask? *sigh* No two were actually missing, Robert & Mathias!
There were a lot of funny and interesting lectures - to name it - about:
- new features in Aeolus 2.0,
- new developments in kernel 2.6.16 related to stable realtime < 10ms!,
- two speeches about convolution filters and a
- lot of other fantastic things.... *hehe*
And what features could MusE 1.0 offer? Here is a list of some which are already implemented:
- Better midi integration
- A new "filter system" for midi events
- Most parameters can be controlled via curves which can be edited via waypoints
- Better interface
- The metronome is now a plugin rather than a static program
- external software synthesizer can be started from within MusE to have a better session handling
- Now every new session (song) will be stored in a project directory (as ardour does). The idea is to have a more clear structure in file handling and naming.
- cmake will replace automake
Developers note: If you want to help developing MusE (for example an "arpeggiator plugin") have a look at the CVS (or at the upcomming SVN) repository.
So good night everyone. The MusE Team ;-)
This release note is for MusE 0.8.1. It is basically a bug fix release for a note-off bug that crept into 0.8.
