Re: [fluid-dev] OSC support

As a simpler change that might be less controversial, how about just extending the sequencer API to make it easy to do these things without needing to resort to a lower level API? Then as Brett suggested, OSC could be implemented on top through its own library. This would mean, for example, creat

Cool down all. I received quite a lot of updates from your conversation. It makes no sense to get into arguments but I'm curious to see what Peter has to say on the SynOSCopy. On Mon, Jul 9, 2012 at 1:08 PM, Peter Eastman wrote: > I didn't come here to argue. I'm suggesting ways to make FluidSyn

Re: [fluid-dev] OSC support

The FluidSynth SoundFont loader API allows for an application to intercept note on and other events and instantiate the actual synthesis voices. These voices include the sample data and SoundFont centric generator (effect) parameters. This allows for a lot of flexibility in how the note is synthe

You guys are wasting your time. Fluidsynth is a library, load it into Python via ctypes, and roll your own OSC interface on top. (the ctypes wrapper i linked works in Py2, Py3 and PyPy) -brett- On Mon, Jul 9, 2012
