Jackbeat is a Linux-based audio sequencer designed for musicians and sound artists. This software allows users to create and edit music tracks with precision and ease.
One of the best parts of using midikb is its virtually unlimited number of tracks and beats, which allows you to create exceptional audio tracks without limitations. Despite its impressive features, the app remains easy to use and yet powerful. You can easily apply LADSPA effect plugins on a per-track basis by just integrating it into jack-rack. Additionally, using jackeq, the app lets you perform mastering, making it a reliable all-in-one tool.
To simplify file sharing, midikb loads, and saves .jab files, Jackbeat's file format, which is based on XML and packed with tar. Furthermore, the unique masking feature of the app is worth noting. It allows users to insert silence into a given track accurately, making it a versatile tool that you can use in various projects.
To use midikb, it is recommended that you have certain requirements. These include the JACK, the Jack Audio Connection Kit, which must be a running server, as well as the API header files. You also need to have GTK+-2.0 (gtk.org), libsndfile (www.mega-nerd.com/libsndfile), libxml2, and libsamplerate installed.
Moreover, midikb's developers are continually improving the app, and this release is no exception. In this release, new features include the addition and clarification of error messages and close and quit menu entries. Additionally, the app can now resolve the issue of JACK client name conflict when launching several Jackbeats. These improvements make the app more user-friendly and reduce the chances of encountering bugs while using it.
