| ac3dec | 1.0.2 | GPL | A free AC-3 stream decoder | This software is completely useless to 99.99 percent of users out there. It is mostly of use to those interested in audio coding research and evaluating codecs. It could theoretically be used as a portion of a DVD playback system for unix systems. |
| ac3jack | 0.1.2 | GPL | Jack audio to ac3 surround converter | ac3jack is a tool for creating an AC-3 (Dolby Digital) multichannel stream from its JACK input ports. Using this tool, an AC-3 stream (up to 5.1 channels) is created in real time and either written to a file or streamed to standard output. When streamed to stdout and piped through the ALSA tool ac3dec -C, the AC-3 stream can be passed out the SPDIF port on your audio interface for connection to a multichannel surround receiver. In this way, you can achieve full 5.1 surround mixing and monitoring of your JACK applications with a single digital cable, and no need for hardware supporting discrete outputs and inputs. AC-3 is a compressed audio stream, so quality will suffer somewhat, but it is the price you pay for easy surround sound. After all, if it is good enough for DVD and film soundtracks, it must be OK. |

| gnometab | 0.7.4 | GPL | Gnometab aims to be a WYSIWIG guitar tablature editor. | Gnometab aims to be a WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get) tablature editor. Gnometab's features include copying and pasting of tablature passages, a chord library (which the user must fill with chords), professional-looking rhythm notation (not perfect yet), the ability to create a variety of tablature symbols specific to the guitar -- bends, slurs (hammer-ons, pull-offs, etc.), etc. And, of course, clean-looking printed output, given any postscript-compatible printer. Gnometab does not attempt to be "smart", i.e., it does not know how many beats are in a measure, nor does it know an E chord from an Am chord. Instead, the emphasis has been on the appearance of the output. |
| gnuitar | 0.3.1 | GPL | Real-time guitar effects | This is a program for real-time sound effect processing. Probably could be used not only for guitar. It has GTK interface and uses OSS sound driver. Includes effects: o wah-wah o sustain o two flavours of distortion o reverberator, echo, delay o tremolo o vibrato o chorus/flanger o phasor o noise gate |
| gnusound | 0.6.2 | GPL | A Gnu sound editor | A gnu sound editor |
| gphone | 0.5.2 | GPL | Gphone is an internet telephone | Gphone is an internet telephone. As the name implies, it aims to be fully gnome-groovy, but that hasn't quite happened yet. Gphone is definitely a work in progress and you probably shouldn't bet your business on it. Don't be too hard on the program, though -- although the user interface is mighty rough, gphone does actually work pretty well. I've only tested the program over ethernet, but the data rate should be low enough to work over a reasonable modem connection. The protocol is nominally RTP/RTCP, and gphone complies well enough with the standard to be able to talk to speakfreely. I've only tested the UNIX version of speakfreely, but as long as you tell sfmike to use RTP and GSM compression, it seems to work fine. Maybe someday I'll add in support for other codecs; encryption is a little less likely because I'd just as soon not open that legal can of worms. One easy way to get some security would be to modify my program rtptunnel to tunnel the RTP protocol through a SSL socket instead of a straight TCP socket. |
| gqmpeg | 0.20.0 | GPL | Frontend to mpg123. | GQmpeg is a frontend to mpg123. It includes playlist support and all the usual playing features. Random, repeat, etc. And supports custom skins (looks) Uilitizes the GTK library. Requires mpg123 v 0.59q |
| gramofile | 1.6 | GPL | Transfer sound from gramophone records to CD | GramoFile enables you to record audio from (for example) gramophone records, process the signal and listen to the results. Because sound files in .WAV-format are used, it is possible to exchange the files with many other programs. Cdrecord(1) can burn CD-Recordables of these, so you can make CDs with the music of your favorite records. The user interface of GramoFile has a windows-like look-and-feel, making it fairly easy to use. One of the most important parts of GramoFile is the ability to process digital audio signals. Through the application of several filters it is possible to accomplish a significant reduction of disturbances like ticks and scratches. These filters have been programmed in such a fashion that they can be applied in any order (and multiple times) in a single run, thus avoiding the use of temporary files. It is possible to adjust the properties of each filter independently, so in every situation an optimal result can be achieved. Another interesting feature is the track splitting. Just make one .wav file of an entire side of an record and GramoFile will detect where the individual tracks are located. This happens fully automatically, without need to set any options. More experienced users may fine-tune the algorithm, or change the detected track starts and ends, but generally that will not be necessary. Track-times are saved in an editable (plaintext) .tracks file, that will be used during the signal processing to produce one processed .wav file for each individual track. To record and play .wav files, modified versions of brec(1) and bplay(1) by David Monro are included. These programs provide buffered recording and playback, so all will go well even on a highly loaded system. Both programs have been modified to support the standard GramoFile user interface. Brec also got a `graphical' peak level meter, and bplay a running time display. |

| libsamplerate-progs | 0.0.15 | GPL | Audio Sample Rate Converter | Secret Rabbit Code (aka libsamplerate) is a Sample Rate Converter for audio. One example of where such a thing would be useful is converting audio from the CD sample rate of 44.1kHz to the 48kHz sample rate used by DAT players. SRC is capable of arbitrary and time varying conversions ; from downsampling by a factor of 12 to upsampling by the same factor. Arbitrary in this case means that the ratio of input and output sample rates can be an irrational number. The conversion ratio can also vary with time for speeding up and slowing down effects. SRC provides a small set of converters to allow quality to be traded off against computation cost. The current best converter provides a signal-to-noise ratio of 97dB with -3dB passband extending from DC to 96% of the theoretical best bandwidth for a given pair of input and output sample rates. This package contains a command line utility based on libsamplerate. |

| synaesthesia | 2.2 | GPL | This program visualizes audio input. | This is a program for representing sounds visually. It goes beyond the usual oscilliscope style program by combining an FFT and stereo positioning information to give a two dimensional display. |
| terminatorX | 3.81 | GPL | Realtime Audio Synthesizer | TerminatorX is a realtime audio synthesizer that allows you to "scratch" on digitally sampled audio data (*.wav, *.au, *.mp3, etc.) the way hiphop-DJs scratch on vinyl records. It features multiple turntables, realtime effects (built-in as well as LADSPA plugin effects), a sequencer, and an easy-to-use GTK+ GUI. |
| timemachine | 0.2.1 | GPL | Records audio up to ten seconds ago | I used to always keep a minidisc recorder in my studio running in a mode where when you pressed record it wrote the last 10 seconds of audio to the disk and then caught up to realtime and kept recroding. The recorder died and haven't been able to replace it, so this is a simple jack app to do the same job. It has the advantage that it never clips and can be wired to any part of the jack graph. The idea is that I doodle away with whatever is kicking around in my studio and when I heard an interesting noise, I'd press record and capture it, without having to try and recreate it. :) I've been using it to record occasional bursts of interesting noise from jack apps feeding back into each other. It seems to be stable for me, but there could be threading issues and race condidtions if run without SCHED_FIFO (ie. without jackd -R). |
| TiMidity++ | 2.12.0 | GPL | MIDI to WAVE converter and player | TiMidity is a MIDI to WAVE converter and player that uses Gravis Ultrasound(tm) or SoundFont(tm) patch files to generate digital audio data from general MIDI files.

| tse3 | 0.2.7 | GPL | Trax Sequencer Engine | TSE3 is a powerful open source sequencer engine written in C++. It is a 'sequencer engine' because it provides the actual driving force elements of a sequencer but provides no form of fancy interface. Sequencer applications or multimedia presentation packages will incorporate the TSE3 libraries to provide a user with MIDI sequencing facilities. |
| tsid | 0.8 | GPL | TSID: Time SID Manager. | TSID is a library for collecting your time spent listening statistic about HVSC sids from a sid player, and some programs for extracting and elaborating these information.

| volume.app | 1.1 | GPL | Simple volume control for AfterStep / BlackBox / WindowMaker | Volume.app is intended to be an extremely simple, efficient, and attractive interface to a system's sound mixer. It differs from most other dockapp mixer programs in that it does not require minute control of the mouse to perform simple volume adjustments. It also lacks the ability to monitor or control more than one mixer source at a time. |
| vorbisgain | 0.34 | GPL | Adds tags to Ogg Vorbis files to adjust the volume | VorbisGain is a utility that uses a psychoacoustic method to correct the volume of an Ogg Vorbis file to a predefined standardized loudness. It is meant as a replacement for the normalization that is commonly used before encoding. Although normalization will ensure that each song has the same peak volume, this unfortunately does not say anything about the apparent loudness of the music, with the end result being that many normalized files still don't sound equally loud. VorbisGain uses psychoacoustics to address this deficiency. Moreover, unlike normalization, it's a lossless procedure which works by adding tags to the file. Additionally, it will add hints that can be used to prevent clipping on playback. It is based upon the ReplayGain technology. The end result is that the file ends up with superior playback quality compared to a non-VorbisGain'ed file. It needs player support to work. Non-supporting players will play back the files without problems, but you'll miss out on the benefits. Nowadays most good players such as ogg123 and mplayer are already compatible. xmms will support this feature from release 1.2.8. |
| vorbis-tools | 1.0.1 | GPL | Several Ogg Vorbis Tools | This package contains oggenc (and encoder) and ogg123 (a playback tool) Find some free Ogg Vorbis music here: http://www.vorbis.com/music.html |
| vsound | 0.5 | GPL | Virtual loopback cable for audio | VSound is sort of like a 'virtual audio loopback cable'.

| xmmsao | 0.6 | GPL | libao output plugin for xmms | xmmsao is (at this point) an xmms output plugin that uses the ao audio output library. The great benefit of this is that, whether your sound system is OSS, ALSA, ESD, or aRts, the sound will work. You can (pressing stop in-between) switch among those, and the plugin will adapt. It is ideal for users who switch regularly between desktop environments or for admins who are tired of fielding "why doesn't xmms-esd work in KDE?" questions. xmmsao should support most effect plugins. As this plugin outputs to a generic library, an output plugin which operates closer to the actual output system may be preferable in some cases. |
| xmms-arts | 0.7.1 | GPL | KDE aRtsd output plugin for XMMS. | xmms - aRts is an output plugin to allow XMMS playback through the KDE2 soundserver, aRts. |
| xmms-cdcover | 0.2 | GPL | Visualization plugin for xmms that displays a CD cover if available | CDCover is a plugin for xmms, which displays a graphic dependent on the currently played song.

| xmms-cueinfo | 0.2.0 | GPL | Plugin for XMMS that adds support for reading cue files | xmms-cueinfo is a plugin for XMMS that adds support for reading cue files. Cue files describe what tracks a single audio file contains, including performer and title information. This makes it possible to rip a full CD into a single audio file. (The reason people do this is because of the audible gaps that occur when the software switches between two files. However, these gaps are generally shorter in unix-based operating systems than in Windows due to the simpler file I/O subsystem. There are also no-gap plugins for many players now, so there aren't really any good reasons for ripping CDs like this nowadays.) xmms-cueinfo also makes it easy to seek to each track mentioned in the cue file. |

This plugin was written in response to demand from the users of Acme, GNOME2's multimedia key manager. While Acme manages the association of appropriate keyboard scancodes with the media-control scancodes, it does not know how to individually control the various media players. Instead, it arranges the mapping and expects those media players to listen for the XF86Audio keysyms. I produced a patch against XMMS to do just that, but I'm also providing this plugin to do the same job, since it's easier for end users than patching the XMMS sources (indeed, this plugin's source is nearly identical to the patch). |
