Hi, it's good to see a new soft synth on the block! PHASEX caught my interest also because it has a lot of features that my own Snarl synth project aims to implement (http://gna.org/projects/snarl).

I'll give it a spin later this evening and maybe comment on the sounds. I'm happy with the collection of patches it ships with, saves me time. :)

I already did a test build (./configure --prefix=/usr --enable-arch=nocona && make && make install) and noticed a few anomalies. First I had to insert '#define PHASEX_DIR "/usr/share/phasex"' in src/phasex.c because of this build error:

Apparently something in ./configure isn't working properly. Also, the program seems to segfault easily when everything isn't in order. This happens when snd-seq-midi isn't loaded:

Unhandled ALSA MIDI error.  Exiting...
Segmentation fault

And this I got when I tried running phasex before I actually had jackd installed:

sh: jackd: command not found
Status = 0x 1
Unable to open JACK client.
Segmentation fault
