[multimedia: sound&audio] Timidity++

Hi, I have prepared timidity package based on latest (2.13.0) version. Package includes instrument's pack and support input keyboard as client (requied sequencer in alsa drivers).
Start alsa-server:

timidity -iA -B2,8 -Os -E b 0

Connect input:

aconnect 64:0 128:0

Disconnect input:

aconnect -d 64:0 128:0

Re: [multimedia: sound&audio] Timidity++

Great job, though http://madchat.org/esprit/musique/eawpats12_full.tar.gz can't be downloaded unless it's linked from their server sad So, you have to get it manually.

Re: [multimedia: sound&audio] Timidity++

what licence is eawpats12_full.tar.gz under?

timidity++ exists in extra ... i would be happy if we could synch this version with the one in the repos - don't you think this would be nice?

Re: [multimedia: sound&audio] Timidity++

I have no idea. I only upgraded to the latest version.
But gentoo has this (license = as-is):
http://gentoo-portage.com/ebuild?e=medi … -r4.ebuild
They also have a second file:
http://gentoo-portage.com/ebuild?e=medi … -r3.ebuild

Looks like it's a kind of freeware or free for non commercial use :-)
The url for eawpatches desn't exist. I could find the latest version (Feb 2004) via wayback machine:
http://web.archive.org/web/200402122347 … efault.htm
There is a copyright information too:
http://web.archive.org/web/200403020652 … mation.htm

Re: [multimedia: sound&audio] Timidity++

lanrat, thank you very much for the infos

for the synching of this version to the one in extra:

i wonder why this version has timidity.cfg under /etc/ and under /usr/share/timidity/

can somebody post (or email me) the filelist of this version of the pkg (i'm too lazy to build it myself right now)

please have a look here:
http://cvs.archlinux.org/cgi-bin/viewcv … cvs-markup

as you can see, the timidity in extra has the config-path in /etc/$pkgname/ what is a good thing and i want to keep it this way

from the copyright info lanrat posted i see that if we remove these non-commercial part, the rest is PD and we can distibute it.

thx in advance for the filelist

Re: [multimedia: sound&audio] Timidity++

I think timidity.cfg is not critical and can be placed in any directory. On the other hand (I didn't review extra package and I don't have access to my arch box right now so I'm not 100% sure) if you change the path for the config file you should modify it in the sources too:
http://www.djcj.org/LAU/guide/TiMidity-howto.html

If you have put the file in a different directory to the default you will need to change this line in ~/timidity/timidity.h then recompile TiMidity.

    /* You could specify a complete path, e.g. "/etc/timidity.cfg", and
      then specify the library directory in the configuration file. */
    #define CONFIG_FILE "/etc/timidity.cfg"
    #ifndef CONFIG_FILE

For example:


    /* You could specify a complete path, e.g. "/etc/timidity.cfg", and
       then specify the library directory in the configuration file. */
    #define CONFIG_FILE "/art/1music/midi/instruments/timidity.cfg"
    #ifndef CONFIG_FILE

If you use the eawpats soundfonts provided with this guide then you will also need to edit timidity.cfg file to point to the correct location.

--with-default-path=/etc/$pkgname/ is doing this already

yes, i know about path to soundfonts - that's why i want someone to give me the filelist of the pkg from this thread, so that i can compare and prevent mistakes in paths (the timidity++ in extra does not provide any soundfonts - and i already got 2 emails about people asking me where to get the soundfonts, so i want to have a "standard" soundfont in timidity in the pkg itself)

Re: [multimedia: sound&audio] Timidity++

Ok. I'm very tired today and I'm not sure what do you want me to do. Are you asking for pacman -Ql timidity++ output?
Let's see...

mkdir -p $startdir/pkg/usr/share/timidity/eawpats 
   cp -rf $startdir/src/eawpats/* $startdir/pkg/usr/share/timidity/eawpats

All soundfont files go to /usr/share/timidity/eawpats. timidity.cfg looks like this:

cat /etc/timidity.cfg 
dir /usr/share/timidity/eawpats/ 
#source default.cfg 
source gravis.cfg 

source gsdrums.cfg 
source gssfx.cfg 
source mt-32.cfg 
source proteus2.cfg 
#source sndfont.cfg 
source sustain.cfg 
#source xgmap2.cfg

And the list of files in the package (sorry for long post...) looks like this:

pacman -Ql timidity++
timidity++ /etc/
timidity++ /etc/timidity.cfg
timidity++ /usr/
timidity++ /usr/bin/
