LS + SFZ engine and audio backend

Post by dakylla » Mon Mar 22, 2010 7:55 pm

hi,

I discovered something just right now.
it has been a longtime since i try to get linuxsampler sfz engine to work (same goes for sf2).
selecting sf{z,2} engine would crash LS just by making the selection,not even trying to load a instrument.
when changing the engine PRIOR to add audio/midi devices everything seems right.
so to sum it up, for LS sfz engine to work for me :
- I have to choose the engine BEFORE adding audio and midi device (for every future channel)
- add my audio and midi devices
- add instruments to the channels

if I ever try to add the audio/midi devices BEFORE selecting the engine : KABOOOM !!
I think I'll make a bug report

for the record :
- LS version latest cvs
- jack version : 1.9.5 "dbusified"
- OS LinuxMint 8

PS : the bug seems to be related to jsampler/fantasia somehow, cause when i export the lscp script and run it by hand (cat sctip.lscp|netcat host port) it seems to work fine

dakylla,
The sfz implementation is fresh out of the oven, and has bits yet to be implemented. I have the same as you, with the addition on the sfz engine in Fantasia crashing if audio is already present.

We'll need to be patient on this one.

:)

Alex.
