Has anyone here been able to build a recent version of JACK http://jackit.sourceforge.net on suse 8.1? I'm having no luck I always hit errors when the examples dir starts to compile. I was reading the synth article in linux journal and got all excited but so far have had little luck getting any of the mentioned synths to work. (actually Bristol works nicely, and although it had an error compiling, amsynthe looks like it wants to workalso). Tips? recommended synth progs for suse? thanks -- dh Don't shop at GoogleGear.com!

I had the same problems here until I discovered that I needed to install pkgconfig.rpm. Might be necessary to also install fltk-devel.rpm and libsoundfile-devel.rpm. And, yes, fltk.rpm and libsoundfile.rpm, of course.

I developed AlsaModularSynth here at SuSE. The author of the LJ article seems to like it... It has recently been updated and is available from http://alsamodular.sourceforge.net There is an excellent Moog VCF plugin available on this page as well. It's part of the MCP-plugins by Fons Adriaensen. The ams-1.5.9 tarball has several example patches for these plugins (which are easily compiled on SuSE, make sure that the .so files are installed in the correct place under /usr/lib/ladspa). I recommend especially the examples example_chorus.ams example_basic_vcf_reverb_moogfilter_env.ams example_phaser.ams There are also Mailinglists alsamodular-user and alsamodular-devel on the Sourceforge page.

I'll check to see that all the above are installed, I'm sure that I've got the fltk packages fltk, fltk-devel, fltk-doc) (1.1.2-0), pkgconfig, and libsndfile, (but libsndfile-devel was not installed). I installed libsndfile-devel and jack built and installed as hoped. Thanks for the tip. ---------snip---------------

Yes this is one I'm really interested in. Unfortunately when I run make -f make_ams I get the following errors synth.cpp:49: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in.) synth.cpp:70: parse error before `)' token synth.cpp:78: invalid types `int[int]' for array subscript synth.cpp:79: invalid types `int[int]' for array subscript make: *** [synth.o] Error 1 (SuSE 8.1, xfree86 4.2) This was with all the mentioned packages installed (including libsndfile-devel and jack as well as the vkeybd program) Any other Ideas?

Great I'll look into them once I get ams running Thanks for your help Matthias See ya -- dh Don't shop at GoogleGear.com!

Yes. Other missing packages: alsa-devel, probably also fftw and fftw-devel. Have fun ! Matthias -- Dr. Matthias Nagorni SuSE Linux AG Deutschherrnstr. 15-19 D - 90429 Nuernberg

fftw-devel was it! Excellent. BTW when I ran make -f make_ams ams compiled as it should but I did see alot of errors stating something like no newline at end of file. I assume that these meant that there was no newline at the end of each of the header files. This is on a pretty complete (and up to date) SuSE 8.1 The errors didn't affect the ability to build the program, and it seems to work perfectly, just thought I'd mention it. Thanks for all your help, now for the fun! -- dh Don't shop at GoogleGear.com!

These are harmless warnings. I should clean up them however...

You are lucky that you started working with synthesizers under Linux right now, because these days the sound quality has experienced a considerable boost thanks to the MCP-plugins (see alsamodular.sf.net) by Fons Adriaensen. Check out e.g. example_chorus.ams example_basic_vcf_reverb_moogfilter_env.ams example_phaser.ams Have fun !
