<h2>The Project</h2> |

The LinuxSampler project was founded with the |
175 |
schoenebeck |
1770 |
goal to produce a free, streaming capable open source pure |
176 |
|
|
software audio sampler with professional grade features, |
177 |
|
|
comparable to both hardware and commercial Windows/Mac software |
178 |
|
|
samplers and to introduce new features not yet available by any |
179 |
|
|
other sampler in the world. |

<h2>The Engine</h2> |
183 |
|
|
<p class="default"> |
184 |
|
|
<u><b>LinuxSampler</b></u> was designed very modular, especially |
185 |
|
|
(and in contrast to other samplers) it was decoupled from any user |
186 |
|
|
interface. LinuxSampler itself usually runs as own process in the |
187 |
|
|
background of the computer and usually does not show up anything on |
188 |
|
|
the screen, or at most it can be launched to show status |
189 |
|
|
informations and debug messages in a console window:<br> |

That means LinuxSampler itself is the "engine" of the sampler, it |
196 |
|
|
is the software component which performs all the heavy and time |
197 |
|
|
critical computational tasks of handling MIDI events, calculating |
198 |
|
|
the audio data and sending the final audio data to your sound |
199 |
|
|
card(s). We call LinuxSampler the <i>sampler backend</i>. |
200 |
|
|
</p> |
201 |
|
|
|
202 |
|
|
<h2>The Face(s)</h2> |
203 |
|
|
<p class="default"> |
204 |
|
|
Obviously you need some way to control the sampler. That's where a |
205 |
|
|
2nd application comes into game, which we call a |
206 |
|
|
<i>sampler frontend</i> application. A frontend is (usually) a |
207 |
|
|
graphical application, visible on the screen, providing the user |
208 |
|
|
a set of e.g. menus, buttons, sliders, dials, etc. to allow the |
209 |
|
|
user to control the sampler in a convenient way. It merely sends |
210 |
|
|
the user requests to the sampler engine (LinuxSampler) and in turn |
211 |
|
|
shows the engine's status informations on the screen. A frontend |
212 |
|
|
does not perform any signal processing tasks, so you can see it as |
213 |
|
|
a "face" of the sampler.<br> |
214 |

For luxury we already provide you two different frontends / "faces" |
216 |
|
|
for LinuxSampler: |

<u><b>QSampler</b></u> is a light-weight frontend written in |
221 |
|
|
C++, using straightforward native graphical controls of the |
222 |
|
|
underlying operating system. That way the appearance of |
223 |
|
|
QSampler on the screen is very fast and it only consumes very |
224 |
|
|
little resources. Due to its utilization of the operating |
225 |
|
|
system's common GUI controls, it looks slightly different on |
226 |
|
|
every operating system (also dependent of the user's selected |
227 |
|
|
theme on his OS):<br> |

Note however, QSampler does not fully support all features of |
237 |
|
|
the sampler engine (LinuxSampler) yet. Most notably the |
238 |
|
|
engine's instruments database feature is not yet covered by |
239 |
|
|
QSampler. But if you don't need that particular feature, |
240 |
|
|
you're certainly fine with QSampler as well.<br> |

<u><b>JSampler</b></u> is a full-fledged frontend for |
246 |
|
|
LinuxSampler, written in Java and currently comes in two |
247 |
|
|
flavors: <b>JSampler "Classic"</b> offers straightforward GUI |
248 |
|
|
controls whereas <b>JSampler "Fantasia"</b> provides a modern |
249 |
|
|
skin based user interface:<br> |

|
<a href="screenshots/fantasia.png"><img src="screenshots/fantasia-preview.png"></a> |
252 |
|
|
<br> |
253 |
|
|
JSampler supports all features currently available in the |
254 |
schoenebeck |
1624 |
sampler engine (LinuxSampler). Also note that even though |
255 |
|
|
JSampler is written in Java and slightly more hungry |
256 |
|
|
regarding resources (compared to QSampler), this usually |
257 |
|
|
does not have any impact on the audio rendering performance |
258 |
|
|
of the sampler, since the engine runs completely independently |
259 |
|
|
and with much higher CPU priority than the frontend(s).<br> |

It's completely up to you which frontend to use. You could even use |
264 |
|
|
both parallel at the same time for the same sampler engine |
265 |
schoenebeck |
1624 |
instance, really! ;-) You're concerned that your sampler frontend |
266 |
|
|
might waste precious resources of your computer? No problem, just |
267 |
|
|
setup the sampler session for your needs and then quit the |
268 |
|
|
frontend application. The sampler engine doesn't care! It continues |
269 |
|
|
to do its job. You need to change something? Start the frontend |
270 |
|
|
again (or another frontend) and you see what you expect to see: the |
271 |
|
|
current setup and state of the running sampler engine. |

<h2>The Format</h2> |
275 |
|
|
<p class="default"> |
276 |
|
|
It is planned to support all common sampler formats in |
277 |
|
|
LinuxSampler, but at the moment we chose to concentrate on the |
278 |
|
|
Gigasampler format, because when we started this project, the |
279 |
|
|
Gigasampler format was (in our opinion) the most popular |
280 |
|
|
and "best" sampler format in regards of quality and power, |
281 |
|
|
especially for the synthesis of natural instruments like pianos, |
282 |
|
|
brass and bowed instruments. But we already made good advance in |
283 |
|
|
implementing this format, so we are optimistic to start with |
284 |
|
|
adding other formats soon. Beside that we also planned to |
285 |
|
|
design our own, sophisticated sampler format to introduce a more |
286 |
|
|
powerful and more flexible sampler format compared to |
287 |
|
|
any sampler format currently available in the world. Be encouraged |
288 |
|
|
to share your ideas about such a new format with us! |

<h2>The Editor</h2> |
292 |
|
|
<p class="default"> |
293 |
|
|
<u><b>gigedit</b></u> allows you to edit and create instruments |
294 |
|
|
for the Gigasampler format, which can be used with LinuxSampler |
295 |
|
|
as well as with Tascam's Gigastudio. Following our line of |
296 |
|
|
modularity we also made the instrument editors independent |
297 |
|
|
applications. Because let's face it: every sampler format is |
298 |
|
|
different, so in our opinion it is better to honor the specific |
299 |
|
|
features of one format with its own instrument editor application |
300 |
|
|
instead of trying to fiddle everything into one single bloated |
301 |
|
|
application. So gigedit is our first editor, dedicated to the .gig |
302 |
|
|
format:<br> |

305 |
|
|
<br> |
306 |
|
|
You can use gigedit as stand-alone application or in conjunction |
307 |
|
|
with LinuxSampler. For the latter case gigedit installs a plugin |
308 |
|
|
into the sampler engine, so the engine (and with it the frontends) |
309 |
|
|
knows that gigedit actually exists and can handle the .gig format. |
310 |
|
|
So even though we decoupled the sampler's components into |
311 |
schoenebeck |
1624 |
independent applications, they all work seamlessly together. |
312 |
|
|
<a href="http://download.linuxsampler.org/doc/gigedit/quickstart/gigedit_quickstart.html#live_editing"> |
313 |
|
|
Just press the "Edit" button |
314 |
|
|
</a> on a channel strip of a frontend and |
315 |
schoenebeck |
1610 |
gigedit will automatically popup on the screen and you're |
316 |
|
|
immediately ready to edit your selected instrument, making all your |
317 |
|
|
modifications audible in realtime. Even when editing huge |
318 |
|
|
instruments of 1GB or more, tweak the instrument with gigedit and |
319 |
|
|
immediately hear it while playing on the keyboard at the same time. |
320 |
|
|
And the good thing: even with new sampler formats we're going to |
321 |
|
|
add soon (and with it new editors), you don't have to remember |
322 |
|
|
which instrument you loaded uses which format. Simply click on |
323 |
|
|
"Edit" in a frontend and the sampler engine will choose the right |
324 |
|
|
instrument editor application for the respective instrument for |
325 |
|
|
you. |

<h2>The Technical Interface</h2> |
329 |
|
|
<p class="default"> |
330 |
|
|
As the components of the sampler are independent applications, |
331 |
|
|
there must be a way to let the applications communicate with each |
332 |
|
|
other. For this LinuxSampler provides a native C++ |
333 |
|
|
<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Application_programming_interface">API</a> |
334 |
|
|
as well as a network interface using an ASCII based protocol which |
335 |
|
|
we call "<a href="http://www.linuxsampler.org/api/draft-linuxsampler-protocol.html" title="LinuxSampler Control Protocol">LSCP</a>" |
336 |
|
|
for controlling the sampler engine and managing sampler sessions. |
337 |
schoenebeck |
1624 |
Our frontends support that network interface, which also allows to |
338 |
schoenebeck |
1610 |
control the sampler engine with the GUI frontend(s) remotely from |
339 |
|
|
another computer, probably even running a completely different |
340 |
schoenebeck |
1624 |
Operating System. And compared to other remote control solutions, |
341 |
|
|
the frontend won't feel sluggish, as the frontend is running on |
342 |
|
|
your local machine.<br> |
343 |
|
|
<br> |
344 |
|
|
You can also configure your computer to automatically start the |
345 |
|
|
sampler engine and loading your prefered sampler session without |
346 |
|
|
any frontend, simply by using a <i>LSCP session file</i>. How do |
347 |
|
|
you get such a "LSCP session file"? Both frontends write LSCP |
348 |
|
|
session files for you when you request them to save your current |
349 |
|
|
sampler session. And as those LSCP session files are ordinary |
350 |
|
|
human readable text files, you can adjust them with any text |
351 |
|
|
editor if you want. |

<h2>The Compatibility</h2> |
355 |
|
|
<p class="default"> |
356 |
|
|
LinuxSampler is available for the most popular operating |
357 |
|
|
systems and already supports a variety of audio and MIDI driver |
358 |
|
|
systems on each OS. It does not require any special dedicated |
359 |
|
|
device drivers from the sound card manufacturers, so you can |
360 |
|
|
also use it with cheap consumer cards. Due to its clean design |
361 |
|
|
the sampler can be ported to other operating systems and |
362 |
|
|
extended for further driver systems with a minimum of effort. |
363 |
|
|
So we're prepared for the future! |
