OpenMusic 6 on Linux?

anders · November 10, 2013, 10:31pm

@ALL Just want to say thanks for the invaluable bug-reports you provide! Please dont stop sending bug-reports (esp. now theres hope someone actually reads them ). Until the bug with the forumnet web-wiki thing is gone, ill check here as often as i can.

As mentioned, subscribing to the openmusic mailing list at http://repmus.ircam.fr/openmusic/contact seems to be a more robust way for now.

@Anders Sorry, Stupidly I had forgotten to enclose the log file. Here there are all log file I have produced in trying OM in Linux.
The correlate problem was “An error occurred: Failed to load image of type :tiff 0 0 “no pixbufcreated”
Display Log file?…” (see above).

OpenMusic_logs.zip (33.8 KB)

Hi @FDSDB. This could be a typical install-issue, where the image looks for resources (icons here) in the wrong place.

I see all the logs use one build, from 29 Oct 2013 14:21 - could you try downloading a recent build, either installing the latest rpm, or just un-tarring the OM.tar.bz2 and running the image inside? Please let me know what happens.

Cheers, anders

Hello everyone…

The reason you were NOT receiving notifications for replies is because the OPENMUSIC User Group’s DEFAULT Notification is set to “New Topic” (whereas most groups are set to ALL EMAIL). Note that you can change this yourself. But I strongly suggest to Jean to set it by default as “ALL EMAIL” to replicate Mailing-list behavior. Knowing that each user can change this as his/her guise at anytime.

Greetings,

I’ve been testing Anders’ releases of the Linux OM, including a test of the OMChroma library, and I have a few recommendations for Linux users, especially Ubuntu users.

If you’re getting a lot of errors with drag & drop, don’t use it. The keyboard right/left/up/down arrow keys and the Shift-arrow combinations are faster and more precise.
If you’re crashing OM with Canonical’s horrid overlay scrollbar, remove it via Synaptic or whatever method. Remove the widget and the libs, and never again will you have to suffer that annoyance.
If text is truncated or data boxes are cramped, just resize them for better appearance.
If the jackplayer isn’t performing well, check out the OM-SoX library. On my systems the soxplayer performs better than the jackplayer.

re: OMChroma: It is currently designed for Csound5, but Marco Stroppa has indicated that the next release will be corrected for Csound6. I tested a beta version that required the corrections, but they were easy to apply. I’m happy to report that OMChroma works well with OM for Linux.

I’ve been checking out various libraries. What riches ! I’m suffering from overload, but I’ve already focused on a few libs with immediate relevance to my workflow. Many thanks to the developers who have created such tools.

Best,

dp

Hi All,

I don’t know if this can be useful: in loading openmusic, LZ library was not loaded because the software was not able to find the file LZ. I have renamed the file lz.lisp in LZ.lisp, in the folder /usr/share/openmusic/libraries/LZ/sources so now this library seems to be correctly loaded. Probably because in Linux capital letters are different from small letters.

Ciao

Hi

Yes I have already noticed that with some libraries.
The Linux version of OpenMusic is of course case sensitive.

Good remark!

bresson · November 27, 2013, 7:27pm

it is probably possible too set OM Linux to be non-case-sensitive (as in Mac/Windows)
in principle almost all pathname in OM sources are lower case (to avoid this kind of problem) but there are some exceptions here and there

haddad · November 27, 2013, 7:46pm

Hi Jean,
It could be a problem for the Unix pathname, since they are case sensitive.

anders · November 27, 2013, 7:58pm

Wow, i thought apple had gone unix?

The lisp-reader in OM for Linux follows the lisp-convention, ie upcase symbols from the reader internally,

But pathnames are case-sensitive, as is the underlying file-system, which makes sense i guess.

haddad · November 27, 2013, 11:39pm

Yes Anders,
u’re right,… But I beleive it’s not Apple, it’s LispWorks’ version of Mac…
It’s been that way since MCL.
Apple is a Darwinian Unix …

Hi everyone. Built a .deb using alien. To run on an amd64, had to add “amd64” to debian/control. Package then built and installed. It doesn’t run any further than:

Hi All,
In Linux I have some difficulties to play microtones. If I open Tutorial 10, evaluate the part relative to pitch wheel setting, and then listen to the chord-seq (outside or inside it), I have only semitones. Observing the MIDI channels I note that all pitches are on channel 1. If I change channels by hand microtones play. On Osx it is not necessary to change MIDI channels by hand (if I remember correctly). Is it possible to have microtones playing in a good manner without to change MIDI channels assignation pitch for pitch in Linux, too?
I apologize if the topic is not on the right group. Thank in advance for every suggestion.

fdsdb

haddad · December 9, 2013, 12:38pm

Hi fdsdb,

Yes unfortunately it appears it is a bug from om6.7 sources (linux and osx included). So we should have to wait for a patch from repmus. This is due to the change of the midi handeling in om.

fdsdb · January 6, 2014, 4:59pm

Hi,

I have downloaded last version of OpenMusic for linux, but I can not play microtones (OM-tutorials n. 10). With precedent versions the use of micro-play.lisp amd micro-play-2.lisp patches had resolved the problem, but with this version I receive an error and OpenMusic doesn’t run if the patches are inside /usr/share/openmusic/patches folder. The midi channels remains fixed on 1 for all thr notes of last chord-seq of the tutorial. I am playing it after opening the chord-seq.
I hope this remark is of some utility.

Regards

fdsdb

anders · January 7, 2014, 12:02pm

Theres a new build of OM for linux at forge.ircam.fr.

This one supports automatic channel-dispatch for micro-tunings (1/4 & 1/8 tones for now) in the jack midi-player.

To turn the auto-channel-dispatchin on/off, check “Preferences->MIDI->Auto microtune bend”.

You control the resolution by setting a avlue for 'approx either locally in each editor (eg. chord-seq) you want micro-tone playback from, or in the Preferences->Score->Default approx.

I find the editors and setting some times need some toggling on/off to accept changes, or even work at all. This will get stable with some more time and usage. If you observe clear patterns in the behavior, please send reports!

PS. For people who wonder where responses to postings go, they should probably susbscribe to the openmusic mailing-list. Not sure about other devs, but im only dropping by these forum-pages very occassionally (once pr. week?), and find the mailing-list much more efficient to deal with discussions and notices.

Cheers,

-anders
