Well, I did it, and it turned out to be dead easy-- about 100 lines of C code.
Attached, in case anyone now or in the future has any use for it.

New subject: [ANN] Bristol-0.10.11 available on sourceforge
Hi All,
Bristol version 0.10.11 has been uploaded to sourceforge on the usual URL, it should be
below but you can find it there anyway. It has been several releases since I have sent out
any announcements, so apart from a few more emulations (Realistic MG-1, VOX Continental
MK-II/300 with pedalboard, Hammond B3 with pedalboard) this release also adds another
arpeggiator. Bristol already had one arpeggiating emulation, the Korg Mono/Poly, however
that was bespoke to the single algorithm. Now there is a more general one available on the
Juno emulation that will eventually be put into the pending Jupiter-8 emulation and
perhaps others. This code has been implemented in the engine itself, eventually to be
moved into the midi library: the Mono/Poly had its own version since it was not a
polyphonic arpeggiator, rather just an oscillator arpeggiator - that code has not
changed.
Other candidates for this arpeggiator, once it has been validated, are the Prophet-10 and
OB-Xa emulations. The Jupiter-8 will obviously have it as well (with or without validated
code...).
Feedback as ever appreciated.
Regards,
Nick

the third thing i found is a small feature, starting pro10 emulator, the
balance poti is turned hard-left, so i have sound only in the left
channel. it would be good if per default the balance is centered here.
other ways, nice stuff we got here!!
thanks and cheers,

Hi Dragan,> > hammond is crashing just after the gui appears:
Jack period count mismatch: 512 (bristol -count=1024)>
Hm, I am surprised you get much to work here, you have jack configured to have a 512
period buffer size and bristol is going with 1024. Try "startBristol -b3 -count
512", that should get you much better results. I have discussed how to determine this
correctly from the script, and at the moment I parse ~/.jackdrc, the process table and
finally resort to the jack provided default of 1024. I admit that should not cause seg
fault.
The last proposal I was given to resolve this issue was to start jack from the script and
request the buffer sizes in advance (I need these for some internal initialisation
sequences - long story, the MIDI library must be started before the audio is started since
it is a midi command that starts the emulation. To start MIDI I need to initialise code
sections that use the audio parameters such as sample rate and buffer size, to build the
frequency tables amongst other things). Hence the bristol engine needs to know this
apriori. The option to have a program start the jackd to request its audio parameters,
then have it die, then start it again for bristol from the libraries seems daft - I am
happy to take some of this on advice.

This appears
to be the same issue - at least from the diags.

I
will look at this as it should be centered and it should have been a memory parameter
since different layers may be panned differently.

Nick.
