[linux-audio-dev] Juno6 GPL sources

[Artemiy Pavlov]

Dear friends,

I have managed to contact the guy (Sebastian Gottschall, 
brainslayer/at/braincontrol/dot/org) who is converting the UltraMaster Juno6 
synth to windows VST format and I got the original sources from them.

According to his saying, the original authors allowed him to publish the 
sources as GPL so there should be no worrying even though each and every file 
in there contains the old restricting license notice.

You will find the sources at my web site:
http://artemio.net/projects/juno6/download/source/juno-1.0.1.tar.bz2

I have made an attempt to build Juno6, but AFAIK it is based on glibc 1.x and 
many C expressions they have are obsolete. But I believe that with some 
little tweaks the code will compile, though I myself won't be able to help.

What I want to ask, is someone interested in resurrecting this nice synthie? 
First step would be to make it compile with the current feature set. Then see 
if it's possible to add ALSA MIDI and audio support, and so on (maybe add 
DSSI too, etc.). I would assist in providing a dedicated web site and hosting 
for it, no probs.

Again, it's a very nice synth with fat and warm sound, I think it really is 
worth the work.


With best wishes,
Artemiy.
