fluidlite
A very light software real-time synthesizer
fluidlite
Description
FluidLite is a very light version of FluidSynth designed to be hardware, platform and external dependency independant. It only uses standard C libraries.
It also adds support for SF3 files (SF2 files compressed with ogg vorbis) and an additional setting to remove the constraint of channel 9 (drums): fluid_settings_setstr(settings, synth.drums-channel.active, no); you can still select bank 128 on any channel to use drum kits.
FluidLite keeps very minimal functionnalities (settings and synth), therefore MIDI file reading, realtime MIDI events and audio output must be implemented externally.
Install
Channel stable v1.0.9-3
This app is curated in HaikuPorts. Install it from there, it is already available in HaikuDepot.
pkgman install fluidlite
Careful: the file comes from HaikuPorts' own server, but installing it by hand is not the way in. It is pkgman that resolves the dependencies an .hpkg does not carry with it, and a package installed on its own may simply not run. Use the pkgman command above, unless you know exactly why you want the file.
