What is LMMS??
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
LMMS aims to be a free alternative to popular (but commercial and closed-
|
|
source) programs like FruityLoops, Cubase and Logic giving you the ability of
|
|
producing music with your computer by creating/synthesizing sounds, arranging
|
|
samples, using effects, playing live with keyboard and much more...
|
|
|
|
LMMS combines the features of a sequencer-program (pattern-/channel-/
|
|
sample-/song-/effect-management) and those of powerful synthesizers and
|
|
samplers in a modern, user-friendly and easy to use graphical user-interface.
|
|
|
|
LMMS is still in heavy development, so with this version please don't expect a
|
|
complete, ready and bugfree program!!
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Requirements
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
The most important requirement is for sure a fast computer, so don't try to get
|
|
LMMS working on a pentium I with 60 MHz... ;-) Therefore you should have at
|
|
least 500 MHz, but for really enjoying LMMS less than 1 GHz makes no sense...
|
|
|
|
|
|
Required libraries:
|
|
|
|
- multithreaded version of Qt 3.0 (at least 3.2 recommended) or higher with
|
|
devel-files
|
|
|
|
Optional, but strongly recommended:
|
|
- JACK with devel-files
|
|
- libvorbis with devel-files
|
|
- libalsa with devel-files
|
|
- SDL_sound (tested with 0.1.5 & 1.0.1) with devel-files
|
|
- SDL with devel-files
|
|
- libsamplerate with devel-files
|
|
- libsndfile with devel-files
|
|
- WINE + WINE-devel-files
|
|
- stk, libstk + libstk-dev
|
|
- festival-devel-files and default-voice
|
|
|
|
For compiling you should have an up to date GCC with g++.
|
|
|
|
If you have problems with compiling or running LMMS, find any bug or have
|
|
suggestions and so on, please feel free to e-mail me (for mail-address see
|
|
below)!

Building
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
See INSTALL for information on how to build LMMS.
|
|
|
|
Please also take a look at
|
|
|
|
./configure --help
|
|
|
|
There you'll see a lot of options which partly might be interesting for you.
|
|
For example if you want to build LMMS with VST-support, you have to run
|
|
configure with --with-vst switch. Otherwise LMMS support won't be built!

If you are interested in LMMS, it's programming, artwork, testing, writing
|
|
demo-songs, (and improving this f**** README...) or something like that,
|
|
you're welcome to participate on the development of LMMS!

Before coding a new big feature, please ALWAYS post your idea and suggestions
|
|
about your feature and about the intended implementation to the
|
|
LMMS-devel-mailinglist (lmms-devel@lists.sourceforge.net) and wait for replies!
|
|
Maybe there're different ideas, improvements, hints or maybe your feature is
|
|
not welcome/needed at the moment.
