X-ISM
can interpret inter-sample peaks, allowing engineers to
make informed judgments about the resultant sound
quality of the mix.
There is currently
a trend in the in the audio industry known
euphemistically as 'The loudness war' in which the
engineering process is driven to produce a product which
is as loud as is technically possible within the
constraints of the medium. Debate rages as to whether
this produces problems that degrade and distort the
audio. One reason for this distortion is often blamed on
the presence of 'inter-sample peaks', where signals that
are usually missed by the Fs sampling of DAW meters, may
actually exceed 0dBfs in reconstruction from digital to
analogue domain in some Digital to Analogue Converters (DACs).
X-ISM uses
significant processing to provide a combination of
up-sampling and filtering that mimics the operation of
an oversampling DAC’s reconstruction process. The result
is a meter that shows inter-sample errors and provides a
useful tool that most DAW metering misses.
GOM Player is a free multimedia player with
popular video and audio codecs built-in. GOM Player supports file
formats such as AVI, DAT, MPEG, DivX, XviD, WMV, ASF and more. Users
don't have to install codecs separately. GOM Player is capable of
playing incomplete or damaged AVI files by skipping the damaged frames.
It can also play locked or partially downloaded files. Its other
features include drag-and-drop support, HTTP streaming, editable skins,
subtitling, overlay mixer, key remapping, enhanced filter rendering,
real-time index rebuilding for AVI files and unicode support among
others.
Mediaplayer - qualitative and
pure playing multimedia of
files, including mp3; good
facilitys, the small size and
minimal use of system resources.
crystal-clear sound, technology of
reproduction essentially differs from Winamp and WMP;
· Sensitive equalizer;
· A maximum of functionality from a minimum of
resources;
· The minimal consumption of system resources;
· Multilingual support;
· Support of set of formats of audio
· Adjustment of global and local hot keys (patterns from
WinAmp and WMP);
· Flexible options of the program and various covers
will allow you to make A.I.M.P. completely individual;
· Support of plug-ins with which help it is possible to
expand opportunities of the program;
· The audioconverter codes music from the most different
formats in wma, mp3, wav, ogg;audioGrab
allows to overtake AudioCD in Mp3, OGG, WAV or WM;
· The sound recording will allow you to write down a
sound from any audio of the device in system;
· The built - in editor of tags, support WMA, MP3, OGG;
· An opportunity of record AudioCD, MP3-disks and disks

Scale &
Chord Generator displays the notes of a selected chord or scale on a
musical staff, piano keyboard, guitar fretboard or bass fretboard. In
addition, it will display the name of a chord or scale that can be
played in accompaniment with the original selection.
Currently, I only have a package for Win32. If someone would like to
assist in developing an RPM, Debian or MacOSX package, please go to the
project page to contact me. The application makes use of wxPython,
PythonCard, SQLite and APSW. Familiarity with these modules would
probably be helpful in designing packages for other platforms.
