Qsampler is a LinuxSampler GUI front-end application written in C++ around |
5 |
capela |
77 |
the Qt3 toolkit using Qt Designer. At the moment it just wraps as a client |
6 |
|
|
reference interface for the LinuxSampler Control Protocol (LSCP). |
7 |
|
|
|

|
|
LinuxSampler is a work in progress. The goal is to produce a free, open source |
9 |
|
|
pure software audio sampler with professional grade features, comparable to |
10 |
|
|
both hardware and commercial Windows/Mac software samplers. |
11 |
|
|
|
12 |
|
|
The initial platform will be Linux because it is one of the most promising |
13 |
|
|
open source multimedia operating systems. Thanks to various kernel patches |
14 |
|
|
and the Jack Audio Connection Kit, Linux is currently able to deliver rock |
15 |
|
|
solid sub-5 millisecond MIDI-to-Audio response. |

Installation |
24 |
|
|
------------ |
25 |
|
|
|
26 |
|
|
The installation procedure follows the standard for source distributions. |
27 |
|
|
Unpack the tarball and in the extracted source directory: |
28 |
|
|
|
29 |
|
|
./configure [--prefix=/usr/local] |
30 |
|
|
make |
31 |
|
|
|
32 |
|
|
and optionally as root: |
33 |
|
|
|
34 |
|
|
make install |
35 |
|
|
|
36 |
|
|
This procedure will end installing the following couple of files: |
37 |
|
|
|
38 |
|
|
${prefix}/bin/qsampler |
39 |
capela |
1258 |
${prefix}/share/pixmaps/qsampler.png |
40 |
|
|
${prefix}/share/applications/qsampler.desktop |
41 |
capela |
77 |
|
42 |
|
|
Just launch ${prefix}/bin/qsampler and you're off (hopefully). |
43 |
|
|
|
44 |
|
|
Note that the default installation path ${prefix} is /usr/local. |
45 |
|

|

If you're checking out from CVS, you'll have to prepare the configure |
47 |
|
|
script just before you proceed with the above instructions: |
48 |
capela |
77 |
|
49 |
capela |
1258 |
make -f Makefile.cvs |
50 |
|
|
|

Configuration |
53 |
|
|
------------- |
54 |
|
|
|
55 |
capela |
491 |
Qsampler holds its settings and configuration state per user, in a file |
56 |
capela |
77 |
located as $HOME/.qt/qsamplerrc. Normally, there's no need to edit this file, |
57 |
|
|
as it is recreated and rewritten everytime qsampler is run. |
