Qsampler

Qsampler free sampler by rncbc

Qsampler is a free sampler plugin for Alsa developed by rncbc. Compatible OS(s): Linux.

Qsampler is a LinuxSampler GUI front-end application written in C++ around the Qt framework using Qt Designer. At the moment it just wraps as a client reference interface for the LinuxSampler Control Protocol (LSCP).

LinuxSampler is a work in progress. The goal is to produce a free, open source pure software audio sampler with professional grade features, comparable to both hardware and commercial Windows/Mac software samplers.

The initial platform will be Linux because it is one of the most promising open source multimedia operating systems. Thanks to various kernel patches and the Jack Audio Connection Kit, Linux is currently able to deliver rock solid sub-5 millisecond MIDI-to-Audio response.

QRange

QRange free eq by lkjb

QRange is a free equalizer VST, VST3, Audio Unit plugin developed by lkjb. Compatible OS(s): Windows 64b, macOS.

lkjb QRange is a IIR linear phase EQ with the following features:

  • 12 bands (sortable by frequency).
  • Each band can be used as peak, shelf and cut filter.
  • Cut filters are available with 12, 24 and 48 dB/oct steepness.
  • Stereo/Left/Right/Mid/Side routing per band.
  • Global gain for loudness adjustments.
  • Resizable user interface.
  • Gain Match (new in version 1.0.1).

  • Latency-free minimal phase mode (new in version 1.1.0).

The analyser can be set to analyse pre-EQ and post-EQ signal applying the same routings that are available per band. It is possible to adjust the analyser minimum/maximum magnitude by dragging the scale on the right (visible only if the analyser is active).

A menu which is available via the gearwheel provides:

  • Adjusting Analyser Range.
  • Adjusting frequency display magnitude.
  • Adjusting the plugin latency.
  • Setting a default EQ state and/or user interface size for new instances.

QRange uses IPlug-Youlean as plugin framework. From JUCE juce_core and juce_audio_basics modules are used.

Changelog:

  • 1.1.3:

    • Added option to draw the EQ curve a bit thicker.

    • Added option for band color hints to assign bands more easily to handles.

  • 1.1.2:

    • fixed vst3 crashing Cubase 10 when changing latency setting.

    • hopefully fixed tail playing when turning plugin off and on again in Logic.

  • 1.1.1:

    • once again fixed default settings not working properly (latency & filter type was not saved).

    • added option to run analyser only while user interface is showing.

  • 1.1.0:

    • fixed default settings not working correctly in case of overwriting old defaults.

    • fixed latency setting not being loaded with projects.

    • added added non Linear Phase but latency free mode.

  • 1.0.3:

    • fixed crash in Ableton Live when changing latency.

    • fixed QRange AU not validating (silent update without new version for macOS; reinstall plugin if this is encountered).

  • 1.0.2:

    • show whether gain match is possible.

    • change Q-factor in frequency view by ctrl-dragging the handle.

    • added presets.

  • 1.0.1:
    • user interface updat: filled analyser curve.
    • user interface udate: band color according to routing.
    • user interface update: rearranged buttons & different button style.
    • added gain match.
    • added band solo (right click on band number or via band handle context menu).
  • 1.0.0: First release.

QjackCtl

QjackCtl free host by rncbc

QjackCtl is a free host application for Alsa, developed by rncbc. Compatible OS(s): Linux.

QjackCtl is a simple Qt application to control the JACK sound server (https://jackaudio.org), for the Linux Audio infrastructure.

Written in C++ around the Qt framework for X11, most exclusively using Qt Designer.

Provides a simple GUI dialog for setting several JACK server parameters, which are properly saved between sessions, and a way control of the status of the audio server. With time, this primordial interface has become richer by including a enhanced patch-bay and connection control features.

QB3

QB3 free eq by de la Mancha

QB3 is a free equalizer VST plugin developed by de la Mancha. Compatible OS(s): Windows.

QB3 is a vintage-style, 3-band EQ plug-in, with its own unique colouring and a few tricks up its sleeve. For each band you can adjust the centre frequency and gain. For the low and high shelving bands you can adjust the steepness of the slope, whilst for the mid peaking band you can adjust the bandwidth. This allows a range of sounds from steep, sharp cuts to smooth and gentle boosts.

But the “Queen Bee” is not a super clean and transparent plug-in. QB-3 features a pleasing combination of harmonics, saturation and low level noise to bring a subtle mojo to your sound. You also have the option to switch on a 40Hz cut to boost your low frequency headroom and a limiter to curb any peaks.

Features:

  • Vintage-style, 3-band EQ.
  • Subtle colouring from a home-made blend of harmonics, saturation and low level noise.
  • Full Stereo processing.
  • Centre frequency adjustable for each band.
  • Gain adjusts positively and negatively for each band.
  • Low and High bands have adjustable slope, including negative ‘resonant’ like curve.
  • Mid band has adjustable bandwidth for narrow to wide curves.
  • Master gain control.
  • Optional 40Hz cut for low frequency optimisation.
  • Optional limiting on final output.
  • Non-linear knobs for precise control at small values, with double-click reset to default value.
  • 33 Presets covering many different configurations.
