Welcome to Loris.
Loris is an open source C++ class library implementing analysis,
manipulation, and synthesis of digitized sounds using the Reassigned
Bandwidth-Enhanced Additive Sound Model.
For more information about Loris and the Reassigned Bandwidth-Enhanced
Additive Model, contact the developers at loris@cersloundgroup.org, or
visit them at http://www.cerlsoundgroup.org/Loris/.
The primary distribution point for Loris is SourceForge
(http://loris.sourceforge.net) and its mirrors.
Loris is free software. Please see the file COPYING for details.
For documentation, please see the files in the doc subdirectory.
For a list of major changes to Loris, organized by release number,
please see the file NEWS.
Maintainers: for the steps to cut a tagged release, see RELEASING.md.
INSTALLATION:
Loris builds with CMake (3.24 or newer). For detailed configuration and
installation instructions, see the file INSTALL. Briefly:
cmake -S . -B build
cmake --build build
ctest --test-dir build
cmake --install build
In order to compile and link the Loris library and scripting extensions,
you will need a modern, reasonably standard-compliant C++ compiler (and
linker, etc.). To build scripting extensions, such as the Python module,
you will also need SWIG, a tool that connects programs written in C and
C++ with a variety of high-level programming languages, available at
www.swig.org (or via pip: `pip install swig`).
For best performance, you should also install the FFTW Fourier transform
library, available at www.fftw.org. FFTW is covered by its own license
and copyright, and is entirely separate from Loris. FFTW is not required
to build or use Loris.
