Hi.
I released ZynAddSubFX 1.4.2 on
http://zynaddsubfx.sourceforge.net
News:
- (small) tutorials
- added full-featured, advanced formantic
filters
- added mixer panel which lets you to see/change
most important part settings, and shows a vu-meters
for each part
- you can choose to process the instrument's kit
items only with one Part effect (eg. you can make a
instrument kit that contains a reverberated piano and
flanged strings)
- enabled to launch more instances in Jack
- when is launched first time, it searches for
default.bnk_zyn file into /usr/share/zynaddsubfx and
/usr/local/share/zynaddsubfx directories (useful for
binary packages for Linux distributions)
- bugfixes
For those that you don't know, ZynAddSubFX is a
poweful software synthsizer for Linux and Windows.
Paul.

Hey Paul,
I'd like to check your softwaresynth but it's hard for me to judge
whether the music I make together with a friend is against God and Jesus
or not, since I never thought about the music I make in such a way (I
just enjoy creating it). Could you please listen to some tracks on our
website www.cyozlab.com to judge and notify me if you (and thus God as
well) would agree to use your software for my music? I would really
appreciate it and I'm looking forward to check out your zynaddsubfx!!!
greetz, jelmer
PS I played drums in a heavy metal band, but our lyrics were mainly
against fascism and racism.

Hopefully your message was tongue-firmly-in cheek, but if not I'll say
this as a reminder:
Paul is of course entitled to his opinions about everything from
Yawveh to the Tooth Fairy, and I'm entitled to mine. Neither have
anything to do with the General Public License covering ZynAddSubFX.
Your rights to use Paul's software are protected by a power higher than
his (or my, or your) opinions/beliefs/speculations about anything.
Just to be perfectly clear... ;-)

Hallo,
Daniel James hat gesagt: // Daniel James wrote:
Actually, I saw that statement on the ZynAddSubFX site
and assumed it
was an extra clause in addition to the GPL. As Paul owns the
copyright (which I assume he does) he's entitled to add any extra
licence restrictions he likes to his own software, as a 'GPL plus'.
No, he cannot write a GPL plus this way. The GPL (2) says:
Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not
covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of
running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the
Program is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on
the Program (independent of having been made by running the
Program). Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.
So the act of using the software isn't an issue covered by the GPL.
That might mean it's not strictly 'software
libre' of course, but Paul
does say 'please' rather than 'you may not use' though.
Yes, that's an important observation. As a lot of (christian)
theologists for hundreds of years and even today have very different
meanings about "what is against god" this statement can never be
considered anything else but an opinion and a wish (or a joke, but
that doesn't belong here).
BTW: I think that demo1.ogg of ZynAdd sounds very New-Age-ish in my
ears. ;)

I can respect the request not "to make music that is again
God and Jesus Christ", I mean, anybody is entitled to his
believe and to spread that believe through his software,
but the generalization "(eg. HeavyMetal, NewAge,..etc..)"
is such a demonstration of ignorance that I will refuse to
use ZynAddSubFX. Generalization is a basic principle of
rascism and fascism.

Hi,
I was on vacation for a few days or I might have jumped in a bit earlier
on this. I will only point out that this exact discussion has come up every
time Paul puts out a new release of his software. I don't know whether the
folks here do not search the archives, or whether they forget this clause
from release to release, as I sometimes do, but this is all covered ground.
My (personal, not legal) reading of this is that it's really up to the
user to decide what he's doing. I (personally, not legally) agree with you
and do not think that when I play new age music, or shred a bit with my
guitar, that I'm making music against God and Jesus Christ. If someone else
does, then they should not use the software, or they could use it and
understand that they may be in violation of Paul's license, thus risking a
suit from Paul.
I (personally, not legally) think Paul has the right to make any
additional restrictions to the use of his software that he sees fit. This is
his software. I support his right to do this, and I'm not even a regular
attendee of any religious institution.
Anyway, asked and answered many times over the last year.
With best reards,
Mark

I had the same dilemna regarding zynaddsubfx. The best thing I think we as
users of the software can do, is to not comment or speculate. If people
argue over the terms of his usage, he may in fact revoke the _privilege_ of
using this great software.
Just leave it as it is and do not question. Just use it.

Oh, and this email was directed to everyone involved in this thread, not just

Hi Paul,
i tried to use zynadd yesterday triggered by muse (started as sequencer

controls worked well and the levelmeter indicated, that zynadd responsed
properly.
BUT: no matter how i treid i did not hear any sound (jacks output was
fully functional - as tested with alsaplayer...).
1.)Can you give a clue how to fix that?
2.)Do you think, that this could be solved with the new version?

ZynAddSubFX does not set up any default route for the output through JACK.
Use jack_connect or similar to connect ZynAddSubFX's output to the soundcard.
