TB-303 Bassline. It is not an exact copy; rather than make it "just
like the real thing", the design concentrates on modelling the
circuitry and was adjusted by comparing the sounds achievable with
it to those heard on classic acid house tracks. It includes a
switchable square/saw wave VCO, 24dB/octave VCF, an adjustable decay
time for the VCF, a fixed decay time for the VCA, and an interesting
bit of circuitry around the "Accent" control.

It is an implementation of a proposal that originated from this
discussion. Its aim is to allow you to have many different audio
programs running at once, to save their setup, close them down and
then easily reload the setup at some other time. LASH doesn't deal
with any kind of audio data itself; it just runs programs, deals
with saving/loading (arbitrary) data and connects different kinds
of virtual audio ports together (currently JACK and ALSA sequencer
ports). It can also be used to move entire sessions between
computers, or post sessions on the Internet for download.

particularly useful for software synthesis plugins with user
interfaces.
DSSI is an open and well-documented specification developed for use
in Linux audio applications, although portable to other platforms.
It may be thought of as LADSPA-for-instruments, or something
comparable to VSTi.
DSSI consists of a C language API for use by plugins and hosts,
based on the LADSPA API, and an OSC (Open Sound Control) API for
use in user interface to host communications. The DSSI specification
consists of an RFC which describes the background for the proposal
and defines the OSC part of the specification, and a documented
header file which defines the C API.

random tracks are playing. After that determination, it sets the
player's transition behavior (crossfade, fade, etc) appropriately.
The transition behavior for the album/random/default cases can be

top of Transitions.pm. There is also a user configurable section
for excluding specific genres from being processed for album/random
detection. In these cases, the 'default' transition preference will
be used.

XAnalyser is a program to analyse a stereo audio signal. It has two displays:
Frequency Spectrum
Using Fast Fourier Transform, the time domain of the signal is transformed into
the frequency domain, i.e. the amplitude (in logarithmic scale) of the
audio signal is plotted versus the frequency. Either the sum of the
left and right channel of the audio signal can be shown or both
channels simultaneously.
XY Scope
Roughly speaking, the audio signal of left channel deflects a point
horizontally and the right channel vertically (just as the beam of a CRT
would do). Thus, an audio signal only present on the left channel produces
a horizontal line, whereas an audio signal only present on the right channel
produces a vertical line. A mono signal produces a 45 degree line.
A stereo signal creates a wilde pattern (if the phase is correct,
predominately in the same direction as a mono signal) or may even fill
the entire scope.

otherwise bad. But it works for me.
