Hi all,
first my apologies for cross-posting (TM) :) . This is a wee small
bugfix release of Simple Sysexxer. It now should build without needing
Qt debug libs installed.
As I didn't get any feedback since the first release (neither success
stories nor complaints), I'd like to encourage anyone to send feedback
or bug reports.
Simple Sysexxer is a tool to exchange sysex data with MIDI devices, e.g.
to do backups of the device's memory contents or to send presets loaded
from the web.
Advantages:
* (Hopefully) easy to use graphical user interface
* True ALSA sequencer support
* Built using Qt, no KDE dependency at all
* Minor changes to the source should make it run on Mac OS X or even
Windows
Disadvantages:
* Requires Qt4 and will *not* build against Qt3
* No JACK MIDI support :)
* No OSS support
* No prebuilt binaries available
Information and source download:

Enjoy,
ce

I would like to try this out, but I'm not going to risk potentially
disrupting a reliable working system to install qt4 for only one app.
If my next major upgrade has qt4 then I'll give it a try.

What distro is so fragile that simply installing one library can break
things?

Qt installs itself nicely alongside other versions of itself. On my
Demudi system I have both Qt3 and Qt4, the only thing I need to remember
when compiling is to set the QTDIR variable to the appropriate version.
It's sometimes necessary to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH if relocation error occur.

"never change a running system" :) .
My Gentoo box properly separates Qt3 and Qt4, but I don't know about
other systems. Anyway, as soon MusE 1.0 will be out, all MusE users
will be urged to install Qt4, hehe :) .

Greetings:
Last night I was playing around with Native Instruments' FM7, running it
under WINE with Robert Reif's ASIO driver. I noticed that it will accept
raw sysex banks, so I decided to build Simple Sysexxer to see if I could
get my custom banks from my TX802. No problem, I transferred the bank
sysex to SS. I then tried to import the bank into FM7. Again, no
problems. How nice, I can now use and edit my old favorite patches in FM7.
Alas, FM7 seems to accept only the data utilized by the original DX7,
i.e. it skips the performance data unique to the DX7II/TX802. Still,
most of my patches were identifiable, and I think I can get almost
identical sounds with a little parameter tweaking.
Christoph, thanks for the useful tool. It built without troubles and
performed as advertised. :)

seems my advertising is buggy then ;-) . Anyway, thanks for testing and
the success story. On which Distro/Qt-Version did you run it?
