Latest release

2008-05-02 - The Frugal Damsel.
qtractor-0.1.3.tar.gz (user manual)

• As one may find convenient sometimes, the global time display format (frames, time or BBT) may now be changed on the main transport time spin-box context menu.
• Left-clicking on the track list number column now toggles all track content clip selection.
• Prevent audio-buffer initialization mashups when editing short audio clips while playback is rolling and within clip region.
• Audio peak files gets a bit simplified, dropping the peak frame count from its header; peak waveform graphics are now rendered as straight lines when over the end of audio file.
• The drop-span option (View/Options.../Drop multiple audio files into the same track) now also applies when importing tracks (as in Track/Import Tracks/Audio...) to concatenate multiple audio clips into one and the same new track.
• Audio and MIDI meter level colors are now user configurable (as global configuration options, View/Options.../Display/Meters)
• First attempt for Qt4.4 build support, regarding the bundled atomic primitives, which have changed upstream as advertised (thanks to Paul Thomas, for spotting this one first time).
• Record monitor switch is now an accessible button option on all track mixer strips; for visual consistency, the old bus "thru" switch button has been renamed to "monitor".
• Force track-view position reset to origin on session close.
• Fixed segfault on inserting an external file into files widget.
• Mixer splitter sizes are now better saved/restored when closed.
• Track record monitoring is now a state option, being toggled from the Track/State/Monitor menu; applies both to audio end MIDI tracks: when set all input will be pass-through to the current assigned output bus, including track plug-ins chain.
• Session dialog gets split in its own tab components, between descriptive, time and view configuration ones.
• Drifting correction among audio and MIDI engines is now back, but avoided while recording or should it be while looping? (EXPERIMENTAL REGRESSION)
• Time-stretching percent value gets its semantics inverted, as thought consistent with ones general sense for relative stretching ie., lower to shrink and higher to make longer. this is a major up-side-down change and should affect all sessions saved with time-stretched audio clips.
• Slack space in main tracks and MIDI clip editor views are now proportional to viewport width, leaving enough room for drag and moving content past the current session length, specially at the lower zoom levels.
• Clip end time is now also shown on tool-tip.
• When armed for recording, MIDI tracks are now monitored and filtered through their own output bus, thus having the same behavior as audio tracks; this also implies that all record armed tracks won't playback their current content material when recording is engaged and rolling; track mute and solo states are now honored on record monitoring.
• Audio clip pitch-shifting makes its first appearance, with the optional help from Chris Cannam's RubberBand library.
• A new MIDI editor tool is available: note/pitch randomize.
• Avoid (re)setting the default session directory if a session cannot be open or loaded for some reason.
• Another nastiness bites the dust: a subtle but progressive drifting has been swept away from the audio buffer looping; zero buffer flushing is now also taken into account, which was the cause for serious drifting on time-stretched clips.
• A major digital audio processing bug was tamed: audio clip fade-in/outs are now linearly piece-wise applied, even at the clip edges, giving a much smoother rendering and thus mitigating the nasty click-and-pop artifacts that were in fact due to some early design optimization with a poor and sloppy implementation.

Previous release

2008-03-23 - The Frantic Dame.
qtractor-0.1.2.tar.gz (user manual)

• Session length fixed (yet again) while extend recording; also improved follow-playhead switching while playback/recording.
• Whitespace sanitization gets leaner for all recorded filenames.
• Run-time SSE optimization detection has been improved while on configure; additionally, IEEE 32bit float specific optimizations have also sneaked in.
• SSE optimization is now featured over all audio monitoring, and most specially on audio bus buffering, lowering the CPU burden a bit while doing track and bus gain, pan, metering and mix-down.
• Fixed MIDI clip move into new track, preserving the original channel, bank and program whenever possible.
• Fixed session cursor seeking, specially regarding overlapped clips, once gain.
• The MIDI editor gets new menu access to current MIDI clip track (see File/Track/Inputs, Outputs, Properties); selection of MIDI events has also been improved, specially regarding overlapped note events.
• Clip split command enters the stage (see Edit/Clip/Split) about splitting the current (selected) clip at the current playhead position (red cursor line).
• Creating new clips from scratch is now finally permitted (see Edit/Clip/New...); additionally, the clip properties dialog is now also allowing for changing the filename (and track/channel as special to MIDI clips).
• Record armed tracks are now properly monitored and fed through their own output audio bus on mix-down, which includes plug-in effects processing.
• The files widget get alternating coloured rows.
• VST plug-in preset values are now being restored properly; individual parameter changes are now being queued for the also convenient undo/redo command pattern.
• Some audio clip buffer-sync tweaks have sneaked in, improving and fixing the rendering of full-overlapped, integrally cached and/or offset clips altogether.
• Stuffed one primordial shot on XInitThreads() at the main head, and let native VST plug-ins start behaving as they should, or not; this might be in fact problematic and dangerous for people who won't ever try the JUCE based plugins as from JUCETICE (http://www.anticore.org/jucetice), due to some broken locking mechanism in xcb; thanks anyway to mighty kRAkEn/gORe@JUCETICE for this precious hint and from who knows best.
• True deterministic session length update has due fixed.
• Track menu has new accessible actions:
  • Track/Inputs - show current track input bus connections;
  • Track/Outputs - show current track output bus connections;
  • Track/State/Record - arm current track for recording;
  • Track/State/Mute - mute current track;
  • Track/State/Solo - solo current track;
  • Track/Navigate/First - make current the first track;
  • Track/Navigate/Previous - make current the previous track;
  • Track/Navigate/Next - make current the next track;
  • Track/Navigate/Last - make current the last track;
  • Track/Move/Top - move current track to top;
  • Track/Move/Up - move current track up;
  • Track/Move/Down - move current track down;
  • Track/Move/Bottom - move current track to bottom;
• View menus have new accessible actions:
  • View/Zoom/In - horizontal and vertical zoom-in (Ctrl +);
  • View/Zoom/Out - horizontal and vertical zoom-out (Ctrl -);
  • View/Zoom/Reset - reset both zoom levels to default;
  • View/Snap - select current snap-per-beat setting;
• Plug-in forms don't auto-open on session reload anymore.
• Keyboard shortcuts icon item (Help/Shortcuts...) sneaks in.

Older releases

2008-02-16 - The Futile Duchess.
qtractor-0.1.1.tar.gz (user manual)

• After some great user demand, keyboard shortcuts are finally configurable, as found provisionally under Help/Shortcuts..., for the main application menu and for the MIDI editor as well.
• Debian package gets SSE optimization disabled as default.
• At least some transport actions get to be non auto-repeatable when pressed for much too long, as Play and Record, avoiding the tumbling imposed from the keyboard.
• For the first time ever, jackd auto-start is now allowed (!).
• OSC service support through liblo gets optional at configure time, now leading the way to proper DSSI plug-in hosting.
• All plug-in widget controls count are now capped to one hundred.
• Plugin paths setup is now made available on the options dialog, overriding each of respective default settings, as implicit from the LADSPA_PATH, DSSI_PATH and VST_PATH environment variables (see View/Options.../Display/Plugin Paths).
• Clip fade-in/out lengths are now kept relative to tempo changes and also to clip offset and length changes (clip resizes).
• Automatic time-stretching for all audio clips when session tempo changes, may now be disabled/enabled as a global session option (see View/Options.../Audio/Playback/Automatic time-stretching).
• Double-clicking on an empty area (de)selects all clips on track.
• MIDI capture (record) quantization is now an option, possibly handy for some jerky performance musicians, as the one found in myself ;) (see View/Options.../MIDI/Capture/Quantize).
• The global options dialog (View/Options...) has seen its Display tab page being moved back and to the right.
• Major rewrite of the plug-in infrastructure, adding primordial support for DSSI and native VST plug-in flavors.
• Drag-and-drop of plug-in instances are now allowed intra- and inter-mixer strip chains, either on tracks or buses.
• Turning track record off while recording is rolling was leaving the session in a inconsistent recording status, now fixed.
• A random but instant crash upon audition/pre-listening player onset was hopefully fixed.

2008-01-05 - The Frivolous Debutante.
qtractor-0.1.0.tar.gz (whitepaper)

• Audio clip time-stretching makes its debut, with code adapted and refactored from the SoundTouch library, under the (L)GPL umbrella.
• New "Options.../Audio/Playback/Quick seek time-stretching" global option, providing a quick seek mode (hierarchical search) while doing all audio buffer time-stretching.
• Changing session tempo will automatically apply the corresponding time-stretch percent factor to all in-place audio clips. Audio clip dialog also includes a new time-stretch property setting.
• Tempo changes are now affecting clip offsets correctly, keeping the clip offset constant in time units (ticks), as are clip start and length properties already.
• Mixer splitter sizes are now properly saved/restored when hidden.
• Extended multi-selection is now featured on the files widget; all drag and drop functionality has been almost completely rewritten.
• SSE optimization is now enabled where available (via configure).
• Options for having separate dedicated ports for the audition/pre- listening player output, audio metronome output, MIDI control input/output and MIDI metronome output, are now in place.
• A brand new subtle option sneaks in, affecting the drag-and-drop of the main track-view: View/Options.../Drop multiple audio files into the same track, whether to drop multiple external files into new or existing track as concatenated audio clips.
• The audio metronome makes its debut as an alternative to the MIDI existing one; parameters include bar and beat audio sample files, accessible from the View/Options.../Audio/Metronome dialog.
• Files widget action refactorization; the files context menu gets its due item icons and a new menu item for direct audio player accessibility.
• MIDI time resolution changes (ppqn, ticks per beat) now tries to keep all session MIDI clip times unchanged as far as possible.
• MIDI channel volume and panning control change events, CC#7 and CC#10 respectively, are now rendered unfiltered on playback.
• First rendition of the long due implementation of an audition or pre-listening audio player is now in place; the files window got this new play/stop control button on its lower-right corner.
• Actual instrument definition note (keys) and controller names are now in effect on the MIDI editor, whenever applicable.
• Fixed instrument bank selection method, "Bank MSB" (2), which was broken enough to never send the correct bank number.
• Mouse-wheel horizontal scrolling is now accessible on every view, while pressing a modifier key (Shift or Ctrl).
• New auto-backward transport option: when enabled the playhead will be reset backward automatically whenever transport stops playing.
• A suicide-crash has been fixed while invoking the bus dialog from the respective mixer bus strip context menu.
• Master (default) buses are always set to Duplex mode, being now an enforced update policy while on the Buses dialog.
• A stupid lockup bug (infinite loop) was spotted on the track bus assignment method and squashed (thanks, lexridge).
• New keyboard shortcuts for toggling the Connections tool (F8) and the mighty Mixer tool (F9) windows.
• Avoid showing a context menu while right-clicking on time rulers.
• Audio clip waveform drawing gets additional closing points.
• It is now possible to change the length/size of a clip by dragging its left or right edges, while in the main track-view. Shift+drag will also time-stretch to the resulting audio clip length.
• Another off-by-one mistake was corrected, which was causing audio clips to go out-of-sync on loop turnover boundary; also changed the loop turnaround strategy, now honoring already cached periods.
• A race-condition has been mitigated in the audio-buffer thread, that was exposed and lead to sudden application freezing upon changing some composite audio clip commands.
• Take absolute audio peak values only, making peak files a little bit shorter and hopefully faster to load and draw as waveforms.

Older pre-releases

2007-11-30 - The Adolescence Prime.
qtractor-0.0.9.778.tar.gz

• Drag-and-dropping of MIDI files without specific track or channel, into existing tracks, is now rejected. The drop operation is now allowed on the track-view blank area only, meaning the same as the complete MIDI file import into session.
• Record actual MIDI clip length to last play-head position, instead of time of last event in the recorded sequence.
• Connections item lists gets properly sorted, as intended.
• Clear connection persistance once an explicit discconnection is issued on any of the (intrinsic) bus ports.
• MIDI output buses now get the panning slider to spit out some GM system master balance (sysex) messages, being now enabled.
• Mouse hovering on the clip fade-in/out handles, while in the main track-view, gets its long due cursor pointer feedback.
• Fixed a off-by-one boundary issue on MIDI clip event playback, which were enqueuing duplicated MIDI events on every read-ahead output thread processing cycle (1 sec).
• Transport menu and toolbar are now featured on the MIDI Editor.
• Use actual session name when asking to save changed session.
• Transport loop setting keyboard shortcuts swapped: Ctrl+L will set the loop immediately, and Shift+Ctrl+L will toggle on/off.
• Changing MIDI event duration may now affect MIDI clip duration.
• Alternate sharp-note color lines have returned to MIDI Editor canvas, as was the shadow color marking the end of MIDI clip.

2007-11-12 - The Twelfth Tight.
qtractor-0.0.8.762.tar.gz

• Bus context menu is now accessible from respective mixer strip.
• Fixed a subtle crash-suicide issue when invoking the bus dialog with a double-click over the corresponding mixer bus strip; also fixed the sloppy ganguing mistake when changing mixer bus gain (volume) and panning values.
• MIDI Omni mode (sort of) makes its entrance as a new MIDI track property, meaning that is now finally possible for the capture of any unfiltered MIDI channel event, without regard to the current channel assignment, which still applies for playback purposes.
• Audio (pass-)through has been also implemented, now being a common and consistent property of both audio and MIDI buses, provided those are set in duplex mode (input and output).
• Re-touched follow-playhead and continue-past-end tool icons, again to be a bit softer and not so bright as to hurt someones eyes.

2007-10-31 - The Eleventh Tower.
qtractor-0.0.7.752.tar.gz

• Suspend auto-follow-playhead while dragging or moving content over the main track and midi editor views; re-touched follow-playhead and new continue-past-end tool icons.
• Playback is now forced complete full-stop whenever play-head goes behind the current session length and/or loop-end and the newer "continue past end" option is enabled from transport menu.
• Tool/child windows position and size preservation fixed.
• MIDI (pass-)through has been finally implemented, after several kind requests, it applies as a property of duplex-mode MIDI buses; this new setting is configurable from the View/Buses... dialog; also from respective new input bus mixer-strip button; when enabled, implies all incoming MIDI events at the input bus will pass-through unchanged to the corresponding output bus, as found useful just for direct monitoring one's performance without the help of any extra circumvent or kludgy connections.
• Mouse cursor shape changes accordingly while hovering in header time-scale rulers, both in main track-view and MIDI editor.
• Track-view clipboard paste action has been refactored, with the user interface consistent with the same functionality featured on the MIDI editor: the clipboard selection being pasted now floats at the mouse pointer and can be moved around before placed into its final position, either with the mouse or keyboard arrow keys.
• A unitialized member variable bug affecting all MIDI clips has been discovered and squashed; this one has been lurking for quite some time and was causing wrong clip editing results, specially when tempo or meter differs between session and the MIDI file.
• Keyboard step-moving is now allowed while pasting in MIDI editor.
• Track-view clip selection can now be drag-moved into the void (bottom) view area creating brand new tracks automagically.
• Losing focus resets all current keyboard step-moves in progress, affecting the main track-view and all MIDI editor as well.
• As done before on the MIDI editor, the main track-view current selection may be step-wise moved using the keyboard arrow keys and the enter/insert keys for final placement; horizontal step movement is quantized according to current snap setting; vertical key-step movement is only allowed to selected clips belonging to one single and the same track.
• Immediate session loop settting, accessible from the main menu.
• Track properties dialog gets fixed again in its auto-size treat.
• Another audio-buffer thread bug was scrubbed off, which was causing spurious and audible garbage on certain loop workloads.

2007-10-09 - The Tenth Commencement.
qtractor-0.0.6.728.tar.gz

• A bit more of precision is achieved over the metronome regular ticking and both the audio and MIDI monitor meters.
• A rudimentary MIDI metronome is now in place; parameters, like MIDI channel, bar and beat accent note, velocity and duration, are readily configurable from the main menu, View/Options.../MIDI/Metronome dialog.
• Track properties dialog now gets tightly auto-sized, depending whether its an audio or a MIDI track.
• MIDI clips are now auto-extendable when adding or moving events beyond the clip length and while in the MIDI Editor, of course.
• MIDI editor current selection can now be step-wise moved using the keyboard arrow keys and the enter/insert keys as for final placement; horizontal stepp movement is subordinated to current snap per beat setting, no less than unity; vertical step moves are obviously quantized to the next semitone.
• Get configure to try and detect the correct qmake location and insert it the search order, so let the qt4 tools take precedence when --with-qt option is given and older qt3 ones coexist and are found located ahead in the PATH.
• Drifting correction on audio and MIDI engines was seriously infected in some kind of snafu conception, as evidence lead to even worse drifting being detected to much of great despair, specially after recording and/or bouncing audio tracks from MIDI sequenced material. Credit must certainly go to Christian Schoenebeck on splatting this sloppy one on the face.
• MIDI editing actions while playing now get immediate feedback; this was possible to some internal interface redesign of all MIDI editor accessory classes, making the MIDI clip now being the main editing target object instead of just the MIDI event sequence as it was previously.
• Simple as it could ever be, the build executive summary report is now given on configure.
• The internal decoded frame list for MPEG 1Audio Layer III (mp3) audio files (ie. via libmad) has been made one-time cached as global shared objects, benefitting from the fact that the list is always completely (re)built during the peak file computation, and thus speeding up all frame accurate access operations (seek) over this specific audio file format.
• More eye-candy is sneaking in the MIDI editor: there's new view options on the View menu: Note Color and Value Color, affecting note event colors according to pitch and/or velocity.
• New view option on the MIDI editor: on menu View/Note Duration switches whether events are shown proportional to their durations or as simple vertical candlesticks.
• New snap-per-beat divisors are now available (Beat/3, 6, 12, 24 and 48), giving support for triplets for the very first time (after a heads-up suggested patch from Marko, thanks).

2007-09-08 - The Ninth Hitch Nail.
qtractor-0.0.5.702.tar.gz

• MIDI edit tools (quantize, transpose, normalize, randomize, resize) are all functional and ready for experimentalism; gets in its own top-level menu and form with named preset store and recall functionality (EXPERIMENTAL).
• Main form backward and rewind transport actions are now being immediately enabled when playing from the session (zero-time) start position.
• Audio and MIDI export sneaks in and in form and accessible from the main Track menu (EXPERIMENTAL).
• MIDI track channel is now properly set on session (re)load; track background color changes was missing the alpha setting.
• The mix-down buffering was fixed again, now taking multi-track overlapping clips into consideration (was a lot more broken since the recent glitch-looping fix).
• Dirty MIDI clip editing control has been fixed but still somewhat hacky nevertheless.
• First attempt on solving a nasty MIDI editor bug, which was quietly and severely crippling MIDI files while saving offset edited clips.
• Session loop (re)setting is finally now an undoable command.
• Yet another insidious bug has been swept away from under the carpet: once again on audio looping, some astonishing old and crappy session cursor seek-backward statement was lurking to be laid off. Gone now, simply as it is, growing old on this :)
• A tremendous bug has been fixed: audio looping is now a little more glitch-free as the mix-down buffering was badly broken even since its primordial implementation. Rejoice.
• Minor improvements on track-view cursor updates and visual tracking while recording.
• MIDI editor windows get their keyboard accelerator/shortcuts back in business, whether opted as tools always on top or not.
• The infamous "Keep tool windows always on top" global option is now infecting the Connections, Mixer, Plugin and MIDI Editor window instances with no probable regrets. To be used with discretion, of course.
• Session update/initialization gets it clean on startup.
• Range selection action (Ctrl+R) is now back in business with the added bonus of being accessible from all MIDI editor instances too.
• Common edit-head and tail cursor positions are now under common control and display from all MIDI editor instances; the session loop-start/end points are now also shown on every time-line and share the same control behavior across all MIDI editor instances.

2007-07-19 - The Eighth Wanderer.
qtractor-0.0.4.675.tar.gz

• Main toolbar tempo spin-box gets loose from keyboard change tracking (Qt >= 4.3); custom spin-box compilation fix for Qt 4.1.
• Illusive but nasty Connections/Patchbay item tooltip crash bug has been hopefully fixed (Qt >= 4.3); QComboBox::editTextChanged() signal replaces old QComboBox::textChanged().
• Combo-box setup history has been corrected on restore, which was discarding the very initial default (factory) contents.
• Make debian package build depend on libqt4-dev; win32 console flag is back to qmake project file.
• MIDI instrument selection (e.g. on track form) gets fixed and improved.
• Sorting method for the connections port list has been refactored; potential crash bug fix on connections sorting method.
• Messages class accessor methods constness fix.
• Got rid of some autoconf redundand thingies on configure; late debian changelog update.
• Desktop categories update: AudioVideo.
• README correction.

2007-06-23 - The Seventh Draught.
qtractor-0.0.3.662.tar.gz

• Crash fix on the connections widget, was a matter of refactoring the refresh/clear slots.
• Help menu added to MIDI editor form (redirected and same to main form anyway).
• Clip properties form gets its proper sanity check, querying any existing clip editor whether its safe to apply the new settings.
• Mixer sliders get their long due valued correction, hopefully.
• Transport backward and play/stop are now made accessible from the MIDI editor widget, through their keyboard accelerator shortcuts (backspace and space, respectively).
• Transport actions (play, rec, rew and ffwd) are now kept stable on a single point, instead of being scattered all over the main form code; transport visual feedback might get affected, specially regarding the MMC processing.
• Application icon is now officially installed into ${prefix}/share/pixmaps.
• Spec file is now a bit more openSUSE compliant; just made RPM requirements as exigent as the new debian ones.
• Paste cursor is now properly preserved after leaving MIDI editor views.
• Amazingly why this was not spotted before, the main application logo-icon has been downscaled to the 32x32 pixel standard icon size.
• MIDI clip editor clipboard gets singleton status and is now shared on all MIDI editor instances. Similarly to the main track-view, shift/ctrl-left-clicking on the MIDI editor views sets the current session play-head position.
• A desktop entry file has been included on install, at last.
• Clips in main track-view get more info in the form of tooltips.
• Major rounding fix to time-scaling and most specially on all those internal MIDI I/O methods.
• Extended range selection from the time-ruler and key-list headers is now possible by click-and-drag the mouse pointer.
• Play-head cursor is now also displayed and/or set position on all open MIDI clip editors time line view. As in the main application form, a new local follow play-head option is also featured on the MIDI editor view menu and toolbar.
• All MIDI file save operations are now logged to main messages and files are added to the main files list view.
• Initial debianization.
• MIDI capture/record file format (SMF Format 0 or 1) is now an user option, introducing the new MIDI tab on the global View/Options dialog.
• A bad old-time session cursor glitch has been apparently fixed.
• Make sure the generic clip properties form is modal.
• Major rewrite and adaptation to the session time-scale properties, making its way for a brand new command instance: the session-tempo command.
• Changing the snap-per-beat combobox value on the main window toolbar does not make it as an undoable command anymore.
• Long due MIDI clip editor integration has come to reality.
• Major rewrite on the MIDI sequence file read/write methods, in preparation to the coming MIDI clip editor.
• Status-bar session length label now gets rightly updated, while extended recording, of course.
• Clip properties fade-in/out lengths, gets their old due constraints.
• Main transport time display is now an editable custom spin-box; the Tempo (BPM) spin-box has seen new colors (green on black).
• Transport time display format option adds the new choice of absolute frame number, alternative to previous time and BBT.
• The frame-time based spin-boxes, on the clip properties form, were replaced with a new custom one, allowing for alternate frame, time and bbt input/display formats.
• Time-scale helper class has been introduced.

2007-05-26 - The Sixth Lord.
qtractor-0.0.2.604.tar.gz

• Audio/MIDI connections gets slightly refactored, contributing for whole robustness, specially in case of incidental engine shutdown.
• Mixer window gets a minimum default height bump.
• Clip fade-in/out type changes have been properly fixed.
• Complete refactoring of the command class pattern, making it now derived from QObject and not having a reference to the main form anymore.
• Inoperative context menu event handler has been removed from the track-view.
• MIDI sequence note-on event tracking now uses faster QHash class, instead of original QMap.
• Off-by-one bug fix on MIDI track write method, while parsing co-incident note-on/off events in the wrong order and thus leaving note events with an invalid (zero) duration; obviously affecting MIDI recording in very special circumstances.
• Minor and rather innocuous drop at this time in the MIDI event class structure: the flags member field.
• Port connections now get their lines correctly drawn; strangely enough, the connection lines were being painted only for the parent client items, probably since the Qt4 migration (aka. Halloween files).
• Early clip editing is in place (clip name, start, offset and length parameters, fade in/out length and type).
• Some menu item text capitalizations.

2007-05-07 - The Filthy Fifth.
qtractor-0.0.1.589.tar.gz

• Newer JACK 0.105.0 seems to bitch, probably correctly, about the return value of the process callback. Make it to bitch no more by ensuring the JACK client is always issuing the innocuous 0 (zero) return value.
• Important fixes have been issued, affecting MIDI recording: MIDI sequence zero-time event insertion; MIDI file pending note-off processing on write-track method.
• Qt4 migration complete.

2006-10-31 - The Halloween Files...

CVS Access

This project's CVS repository can be checked out through anonymous (pserver) CVS with the following instructions:

cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@qtractor.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/qtractor login

When prompted for the password for anonymous, simply press the Enter key.

cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@qtractor.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/qtractor co qtractor

You then need to prepare the configure script on the just created qtractor source directory:

cd qtractor

make -f Makefile.cvs

Hopefully, you'll be now with a proper source tree, ready for build.
