Hi guys, I tried linuxsampler yesterday with the aid of benno, looks great! cpu load was low and it seemed pretty stable. I encountered a few irks that according to benno are known issues, i'll list them just for the record: - clicks when doing note_off - trying the original gigapiano it sounded very strange when playing hard. To me it sounded as if it the samples where played from the wrong key (one octave up), benno told me there where issues with the midimapping which may explain this. - it segfaults when ctrl-c:ing out of the app. - on my system i get mlockall failures all the time, regardless of the size of the gig file and such... how much mem does LS allocate? (I've got 512mb so it should work rather well I think. I can run debug compiled-muse together with jack with no problems, which both do mlockall and occupy lots of memory...) All in all, this looks set to be a real killer app! :) The things I miss are (probably mostly on the todo already) - gui (not strictly necessary) - jack output - soundfont support, for now I'm perfectly happy with gig support, I wonder how hard it would be to add soundfont support though..? - hmmm I think I ran it as an ordinary user (with pretty good results), it occurs to me that SCHED_FIFO should not be available then. LS uses SCHED_FIFO right? Should it complain if it can't set it? (this may be a misconception of mine though) ---- And finally, a wish. I think this mailinglist is too quiet, it's hard to know if there is any activity at all. May I propose that you guys start announcing cvs checkins on this list? Regards, Robert |
