Hi LibraZiK-ies.
My memories of Foreign Language 4 "birds" are making me think that with spring upon us, they are wondering what's new on the LibraZiK-4 side since the last blog post about it in January 2023. If they had done what you did and followed the project's Mastodon account, they would already know! But since they have a lot of excuses like "gnagnagna, I was migrating to the other side of the planet... or "cuicuicui, hibernation didn't leave me much time so I made them a summary of the actions of these last four months (software updates, new software, bug fixes, documentation writing, etc...). So here it is below and even humans can read it!
Musics made with LibraZiK::
As usual, some songs made under LibraZiK so that you can read this blog post
