In the beginning of the thread I asked about somthing resembling
"softsynth SDK" (not visual programming environment where I rewire modules,
but the API + libs + headers + etc.)
to create alsaseq->synth->jack (plus ladcca?) synth.
> If you truly want to do rapid synth development you should construct synths in

I was unable to figure out how to connect Pd to alsaseq MIDI.
and found the comment in Pd sources:
" For MIDI, we only offer the OSS API; ALSA has to emulate OSS for us."
I think that there can be a external to catch alsaseq MIDI,
but it stands pretty far from what I would call selfcontained synth.
For the SDK in question I would assume minimum dependacies on external programs.
> or even one of the modular synths, e.g. galan, ssm, ams + probably
Unfortunately ssm seems to be unable to talk to alsaseq too.
I understand that I can use some kind of bridge between OSS and alsa MIDI input
but this is pretty far from the idea too.

Hello,
I am Mr. SEGUN AKINTEMI
Assistant General Manager (Information Technology & Operations)
of PRUDENT BANK NIGERIA LIMITED.
On Monday, February 3, 2003, a bomb blast explosion took
place on the Lagos Island, right inside My bank; So far a
total lost of about 35 million us dollars has been
recorded, this includes both cash and property of the
bank. Please View the Link below:
http://www.cnn.com/2003/WORLD/africa/02/03/lagos.explosion/index.html
However as the Assistant General Manager (Information
Technology & Operations) ,I discovered that Most of our Data on accounts has been
lost as well, as there has not been any back up or network trace even
from the HEADQUARTERS;therefore all losseswould be artributed to the
Explosion. The lagos State Government has taken charges to pay for all
losses.
I found out i still have Data's of foreign Customers who are Contractor
in Nigeria and who own accounts with the Branch, Particularly that of
an oil contractor Mr Barry Kelly who was reported Dead in a motor
accident on the 15 of september 2002, who's contract payments has been
Made and would be tranfered to his foreign accounts from the CENTRAL
BANK OF NIGERIA, upon our confirmation of his foreign designated
account as well as a beneficiary to his funds and payments.
Mr Barry Kelly, while our customer never left a trace of his next of
kin, and His contract Payment which is about 10 million US dollars,
would be made to no one as we( the bank) has none of his Data/next of
kin's contact.
my proposal is that I will like you
to stand in as the next of kin to Mr. Barry Kelly so
that the fruits of this old man's labour will not get into
the hands of some corrupt government officials,
I KNOW YOU MIGHT HAVE RECEIVED DIFFERENT PROPOSALS OF SUCH
ASSISTANCE BUT I HAVE ALL INFORMATIONS WITH WHICH YOU CAN
MAKE VERIFICATIONS.BESIDES EVEN THOUGH THE INTERNET IS
FLOODED WITH SCAM I STILL CANNOT AFFORD TO LOOSE THIS
OPPURTUNITY OF A LIFE TIME.
This is simple, I will like you
to provide immediately your bank account information which
you know is suitable to accomodate this funds and your
full names and address so that i can include it in the
next of kin database. You shall be needing the services of
a lawyer, the Lawyer will prepare the necessary documents
and affidavits which will put you in place as the next of
kin. We shall employ the service of the Lawyer for
drafting and notarization of the WILL and to obtain the
necessary documents and letter of probate/administration
in your favor for the transfer. A bank account in any part
of the world which you will provide will then facilitate
the transfer of this money to you as the beneficiary/next
of kin. The money will be paid into your account as claims
by the CENTRAL BANK OF NIGERIA upon the submission of your
information and your application as the next of kin to the
Late Barry Barrington by the Lawyer; Afterwords, the
funds would be tranfered for us to share in the ratio of
70% for me and 30% for you.
There is no risk at all as all the paperwork for this
transaction will be done by the Lawyer and my position as
Assistant General Manager (Information Technology & Operations)
guarantees the successful execution of this
transaction. If you are interested, please reply
immediately to: segunakintemi(a)netster.com
Upon your response, I shall then provide
you with more details that will help you
understand the transaction. Please observe utmost
confidentiality, and be rest assured that this transaction
would be most profitable for both of us because I shall
require your assistance to invest my share in your
country.
Awaiting your urgent reply.

1. A short summary of changes
Bugs in build process were fixed. Support for transport
functionality in JACK 0.77.0 and newer has been added.
Transport functions are enabeld only if Ecamegapedal is
compiled against Ecasound newer than 2.2.3. Ecamegapedal
was verified to work if compiled against Qt-3.2.
---
2. What is Ecamegapedal?
Ecamegapedal is a real-time effect processor software with
a graphical user interface for controlling the effect
parameters. It is meant to be used as a virtual guitar-fx
or studio effect box. In addition to real-time operation,
ecamegapedal also supports reading from and writing to audio
files. All audio object and effect plugin types provided by the
ecasound libraries are supported. This includes ALSA, JACK,
OSS, aRts, over 20 file formats, over 30 effect types, LADSPA
plugins and multi-operator effect presets. Ecamegapedal's
implementation is based on ecasound and Qt libraries.
Ecamegapedal is licensed under the GPL.

Junichi Uekawa (1) -- Qt -rpath build optimization
Kai Vehmanen (1) -- JACK transport support

Yes, unfortunately no jack support yet ...
More generally:
http://www.cs.berkeley.edu/~lazzaro/sa/pubs/pdf/wemp01.pdf
sketches out the tricks sfront uses to do the compilation, most
of these would be applicable to specification languages other
than Structured Audio. Doing "audio engine compilation" for an
API or language that has critical mass would be a good project
for someone to do ...

Hi folks, your friendly temporary list-admin here.
(Joern's on vacation and I'm filling in.)
We seem to be getting quite a lot of spam lately.
Currently the list is "open" - non-members can post.
I'd like to take an informal poll:
Should the LAD list remain totally open, or should
non-member postings require moderator approval?
I should point out that the LAU list requires approval
for non-member postings, and it seems to be no problem
in my very-limited experience managing the lists:
I check the pending-approval queue at least once a day, find
nothing but spam, and throw it away. Approving a legit non-member
posting would be trivially easy.

Its only a half of solution.
Can I "compile" or "render" the resulting engine into single executable?
I feel pretty uncomfortable when instead of using
a small self-contained synth I have to load its guts into editing
environment.

Does LADSPA support alsaseq MIDI input?

I am distressed. It was my understanding that the 2.5/2.6 kernel branch
was undergoing significant scheduler and latency work, and that 2.6
would eliminate the kernel from the list of obstacles of low-latency on
Linux. It will have the preemptable kernel patch, the new scheduler,
and all of Ingo Molnar's low-latency work. Claims were being thrown
around that 2.6 would be the lowest-latency operating system on the planet.
So how is it that we're in the 2.6.0-test series and people are
complaining about audio skipping in **XMMS**, which uses three second
buffers by default?? If people are getting skips from high-latency
playback, what hope is there for low-latency audio? A series of patches
are coming from both Ingo and Con Kolivas attempting to address this,
but the fact they are just now throwing around potential solutions
erodes at my faith that they really understand the problem or how to
solve it.
Is 2.6.x going to be suitable for low-latency (or even reliable
high-latency) audio? Or is it going to be more of the same: patching
the kernel, tweaking parameters, reading magical incantations, and
hoping for the best?
Reassure me please!

and saved.
Program is released GNU/GPL version 2.
news v0.13 (18/08/2003)
----------------------------
- Added Record. Play, Load, Save and Export as Midi File of what you play.
- Minor bugs solved. Thanks to Robert Jonsson
- Added Stacatto-Legatto parameter for each accompaniment section.
- Re-arranged old patterns to the "correct" lengths.
- Solved bug in engine, now play the correct note length. That can modify
some patterns.
REQUERIMENTS
--------------------------
Linux
ALSA
Fltk
Midi Keyboard (Optional).
