Starting linuxsampler, I get this output $ linuxsampler LinuxSampler 1.0.0 Copyright (C) 2003,2004 by Benno Senoner and Christian Schoenebeck Copyright (C) 2005-2009 Christian Schoenebeck Detected features: MMX SSE SSE2 Automatic Stacktrace: Off Creating Sampler...OK Registered sampler engines: 'GIG' Registered MIDI input drivers: ALSA,JACK Registered audio output drivers: ALSA,JACK Loading instrument editor plugins...OK Registered instrument editors: Starting LSCP network server (0.0.0.0:8888)...OK LinuxSampler initialization completed. :-) The important line is Registered sampler engines: 'GIG' which tells me, that sf2 and sfz soundfonts aren't supported. But linuxsampler clearly supports those formats. I tried to build it myself and add this, but I couldn't find out how. Are there special dependencies missing? |

Reason for closing: Upstream
Additional comments about closing: Features only available in development version - will look into packaging that instead.

I'm sorry, just realized, that those formats are only supported in
the development version. Looks like this software is very out of
date :(

Yes, it is. At the time (a long time ago), releases did happen.
The project is not dead and it's the only one of its kind. I'll
see if packaging the development version is feasible at this
point. Have you been using the development version for long?
Actually I've just started to look into it, search for free
soundfonts etc. Right now I'm looking into carla (it's in the
AUR), which supports sfz. I'm not sure where's the exact
difference between those two projects...
