I think this is absolutely great, Josh. As a certain future user of your database, thanks for your work! Regards, Miguel ___ fluid-dev mailing list fluid-dev@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/fluid-dev

[fluid-dev] Resonance Instrument Database

2007-04-27 Thread Josh Green
I wanted to announce the initial deployment of a web based instrument database I've been working on. The project was dormant for a couple years, but now its coming back together again and I released the Python source based project as GPL a few days ago (PatchesDB in Swami subversion repository).

Hallo Zachary, The capability is definitely there to do this with FluidSynth as a shared library, but the command line interface lacks a real interface to it. Currently there is raw audio output for rendering to a file, but I believe it still writes the output in real time (actually now that I th

Good suggestions, I generally agree with all of it :) I'm planning on doing a GObject code up, just to see if it makes sense. It may indeed be more complex than need be, but a lot of the work is already done, and it would add things like properties and signals which would make FluidSynth more usa

HI Ken, There are some uses of FluidSynth I'm not familiar with and I would like to know more about these use cases. For me, as a pretty heavy user of fluidsynth (it's my main instrument), the top things I'd request are: Could you describe in a bit more detail how you use FluidSynth? Do you

My understanding is that what you programmed is exactely what Josh was referring to, except that he was speaking about including this inside fluidsynth itself, in C, and making it available as an API. Not very complex indeed, but it is mostly a matter of including it cleaniy inside the exis
