I'm not sure if latest brahms sources compile with KDE CVS. There's a special branch with additional features for brahms (announcement appended). If make fails ask on [EMAIL PROTECTED] for more details. Further at least ~ 10 days ago one need alsa (or hack sources) to compile brahms. --without-alsa did not work but maybe this is fixed already. Achim Subject: aRts branch From: Stefan Westerfeld <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [email protected] Date: Sun, 17 Jun 2001 17:40:49 +0200 Hi! I have created a second branch for new developments in aRts today. It was more or less the only way to deal with the following two conflicting goals: * KDE is in feature-freeze currently * there is a talk held by Jan Wuerthner and me about aRts/Brahms at LinuxTag2001 in a few weeks, and we're currently still working getting some things implemented properly in aRts/Brahms So to fulfill these, for kdemultimedia/arts there is now HEAD: * bugfixes only * will be released with KDE2.2 ARTS_0_7_BRANCH: * will contain new features * will be merged back into HEAD after KDE2.2 If you want to update your CVS copy of aRts to the branch, do: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/src$ cd kdemultimedia/arts [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/src/kdemultimedia/arts$ cvs update -r ARTS_0_7_BRANCH Some goals for the branch/aRts-0.7.x unstable development are: * environments (for sequencer integration: the sequencer creates an environment with some devices, for instance a mixer and synthesizers, that can be saved easily with all settings made there with the song file, and restored later) * software emulation of a multichannel mixer * more work on aRts midi support (synchonization with audio, timing, recording) * harddisc recording * ladspa support * implement all features fully that were present in the last aRts/CORBA (0.3.4.1) release, that is for instance - reading/playing AKAI samples - modifying instrument parameters while playing (instrument GUIs) - recording from soundserver by a small program (old artsrec/artsmon) - schedule cycles of modules properly Here is a screenshot of the mixer code in ARTS_0_7_BRANCH: http://space.twc.de/~stefan/arts-mixer.png Hope that makes everybody happy ;) Cu...
