+ |
+ -> (pure) GPL |
+
+
+ |
+ jlscpA java LinuxSampler control protocol API.
+ |

+ |
+ -> (pure) GPL |
+
+
+ |
+ liblscpLinuxSampler Control Protocol (LSCP) wrapper C library.

Dependencies
+
The following figure illustrates the compile
+time / linker dependencies.
+
+
gigedit
+ |
+ (mandatory)
+ |
+ V
+ QSampler ~~~(optional)~~~> libgig JSampler
+ | A |
+ | | |
+ (mandatory) (mandatory) (mandatory)
+ | | |
+ V | V
+ liblscp LinuxSampler jlscp
+
+
Or again in words: you have to compile and
+install libgig before being able to compile and use LinuxSampler. You
+don't need libgig for compiling and using QSampler, but it's definitely
+recommended. You cannot compile nor use QSampler without liblscp
+though. As QSampler is communicating with LinuxSampler via TCP, there
+is no linker dependency between them, but of course you still need to
+have LinuxSampler installed to be able to use QSampler (either locally
+or on any other computer in your network). JSampler is also communicating
+with LinuxSampler via TCP, so there is no linker dependency between them
+either. JSampler requires jlscp though. You have to compile and install
+libgig before being able to compile and use gigedit.
+
+
Binary Packages
+
+ We currently provide pre-compiled binaries for the following operating systems:
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+  Debian "Jessie"
+
+ |
+ Individual Debian (.deb) binary package for each software component, compiled for Intel 64 bit / AMD 64 bit (Debian 8 stable, a.k.a "Jessie"). |
+
+
+
+
+  Ubuntu "Hardy Heron"
+
+ |
+ Individual Ubuntu (.deb) binary package for each software component, compiled for i486, Ubuntu 8.04 LTS, a.k.a "Hardy Heron". (Note: Out-dated. You should better compile .deb packages by yourself by using latest SVN version for now). |
+
+
+
+
+  Gentoo
+
+ |
+ Bleeding edge Gentoo ebuild for each software component, which can be used to conveniently emerge the latest versions directly from CVS (Note: Out-dated, we moved from CVS to SVN a while ago. Ebuild files need to be updated.). |
+
+
+
+
+  Suse
+
+ |
+ Individual RPM package for each software component for openSUSE 13.2, compiled for i586 and x86_64. |
+
+
+
+
+  Windows
+
+ |
+ Self-extracting all-in-one installer of all software components for Windows. It includes native 64 bit and native 32 bit binaries, standalone and VST plugin versions of the sampler. The windows binaries are snapshots which are automatically built on our server from the latest Subversion (development) version of the sampler. We recommend you to always download the latest snapshot. |
+
+
+
+
+  Mac
+
+ |
+ All-in-one Diskimage of the current official releases of the software components for Mac OS X. This is a universal binary, natively supporting Intel 64 bit, Intel 32 bit and PPC. It includes standalone and Audio Unit (AU) plugin versions of the sampler. It also includes the instrument editor "gigedit" and the graphical sampler frontends "QSampler" and "Fantasia". The OS X binaries are snapshots which are automatically built on our server from the latest Subversion (development) version of the sampler. We recommend you to always download the latest snapshot. |
+
+
+
+
+ Additionally there are the following platform independent Java executable
+ packages (note: you need to have the
+ Java Runtime
+ Environment 6 installed to be able to execute these software
+ packages on your computer):
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+  Fantasia-0.9.jar
+
+ |
+
+
+ JSampler "Fantasia", a frontend to LinuxSampler,
+ modern skin-based distribution of JSampler (note: "Fantasia" is
+ already included with the Windows installer) |
+
+
+ |
+
+ JS_Classic-0.8a-cvs4.jar
+
+ |
+ JSampler "Classic", a frontend to LinuxSampler, classic distribution of JSampler |
+
+
+
+
+
+

Subversion
+
This project's Subversion repository can be checked
+out through anonymous Subversion with the following instruction set.
+There are currently seven subprojects in the LinuxSampler project, pick
+the line of the respective subproject you want to checkout from below:
+
+
svn co https://svn.linuxsampler.org/svn/libgig/trunk libgig
+svn co https://svn.linuxsampler.org/svn/liblscp/trunk liblscp
+svn co https://svn.linuxsampler.org/svn/linuxsampler/trunk linuxsampler
+svn co https://svn.linuxsampler.org/svn/qsampler/trunk qsampler
+svn co https://svn.linuxsampler.org/svn/jlscp/trunk jlscp
+svn co https://svn.linuxsampler.org/svn/jsampler/trunk jsampler
+svn co https://svn.linuxsampler.org/svn/gigedit/trunk gigedit
+
+
You don't need to checkout the sources again
+ later on, just for keeping track to the latest development
+ version. For updating to the latest Subversion version you can
+ simply run the following command at any time from the checked
+ out source directory:
+
+
svn update
+
+
You can
+ also browse
+ the Subversion repository.
+
Bootsplash theme
