i was just reading through lau seeing if anyone got the bristol synth
running and i saw your post frank. If you do any more remixes like that,
i think its only fair that you post some oggs. ;) 
I always meant to do some joke remixes of christmas carols. I think your
heavily vibrato'd hammond could be pretty good for this. You'd need a
heavy beat on it too though.

Note that Jan specifically said "latest CVS", not latest tarball
release.
The most recent tarball release, 0.9rc6, is known to be broken for
the ice1712... at least, envy24control is all fubar.
Sorry if I caused any confusion - in an earlier message I said to
get "latest" alsa for the ice1712, but I wasn't specific enough.

Sorry to hear it.

When I said to download from CVS I meant all of the ALSA packages.  If
you do that the clock is fixed.

Reply-To: linux-audio-user@music.columbia.edu
Hello to all,
I´m searching for some kind of a HALion replacement on Linux. Just a
simple engine that responses to MIDI Note on/off and Main Volume per
channel, and that can be triggered using some sequencer (as MUSE or
Rosegarden).
Any hint would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
     Florian Berger, Leipzig, Germany

  The two main choices that I'm aware of are:
  
  	* iiwusynth (http://www.hanappe.org/iiwusynth.html)
  a soundfont-enabled sampler that is already included in MusE (click on
  config-->Soft Synhtesizer, add an istance; click on Config-->Midi
  ports, select the iiwu port and then click on "GUI": this brings up a
  window in which you can choose a soundfont)
  	
	* timidity (http://www.onicos.com/staff/iz/timidity/), 
  that can be started in ALSA server mode (of course you must have ALSA
  drivers, not OSS) like this: `timidity -iA -B2,8`.
  You can load soundfonts by specifying them in the timidity.cfg
  file (on my system is /usr/share/timidity/timidity.cfg) simply adding
  the line 
   soundfont /path/to_my/soundfont.sf2
  and comment out anything else.
  
  You can find a huge amount of soundfonts on www.hammersound.net or you
  can create your own with swami (http://swami.sourceforge.net/)

Absolutely.
That would be much appreciated.
