Hi Florian, Here are to answer your questions.
1. The synthesizer is licensed in GPL with Classpath exception. I have also signed the Sun Contributor Agreement. 2. With the GUS patch format support we can use freepats: see: http://freepats.opensrc.org/ But they are probably to large. 3. There is no dll file involved only .class files. And the current .jar file is 170 kb, which can be compressed further by dropping debugging information and using pack200 compression. 4. Yeb it uses javasound default mixer by default. 5. Curently is done by caling the method setMixer(Mixer) in the SoftSynthesizer class. There are problaby many other ways this can be done. regards, Karl Helgason ________________________________________ Frá: Florian Bomers [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 2. október 2007 12:44 Viðtakandi: Karl Helgason Samrit: [email protected] Efni: Re: [Audio-engine-dev] Gervill 0.2 Hi Karl, that sounds fantastic. DLS and SF2 support for Java Sound is great. Some questions: 1) under which license do you intend to make it available for OpenJDK? 2) for Linux and Solaris, do you know a GM compatible soundbank that could be included? 3) how large (in KB) is the engine (.class + .dll/.so)? The smaller the better, because download size of the JRE should be kept to a minimum... 4) Does/Can it use Java Sound output devices? 5) one important feature is to select the sound device used for output, are there any provisions? I'm not sure how that can be solved, but one solution would be to provide one Synthesizer object per audio device. The default Synthesizer would use Java Sound's default audio device, as determined by AudioSystem.getMixer().
