Karen ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Sun, 4 Nov 2018 22:53:21 +0000 From: Will Godfrey To: linux-audio-user@lists.linuxaudio.org Subject: [LAU] Yoshimi Command Line Interface Our formal command line access is now almost complete. There are just a few remaining areas to be improved. The latest push has seen all the synth engine controls completed. We're not *quite* ready for a release, but would very much like people to try things out. We are actively looking for problems and inconsistencies between the CLI and GUI. Bank and root management have some naming and adjustment controls missing, and the effects parameters are not done - the effects themselves are, and so are effect presets. These were done quite a long time ago, and are being reviewed. The final missing piece in the jigsaw is copy/paste. This is an interesting one. I've a feeling that once the basic structure is organised, it will just slot into place like MIDI-learn, and reading limits/defaults did. There is likely to be some shuffling to get the most user-friendly command and parameter names. There is a huge amount of name duplication. Although this is convenient for developers and for the GUI, it makes it harder for CLI users to follow. We've already changed some of these to synonyms - and indeed also made some of the GUI names more relevant - but based on user feedback they may change again. There is now an extremely comprehensive and context sensitive help system in place. Typing '?' will give you the command information relative to your current context, but you can get any other context usually with just the first two or three letters, so while in the Part context '? sub' will show all the SubSynth commands, and '? li' will show all the dynamic settings that can be listed - such as what instruments are in the current bank. As usual the source code for the current 'master' is available from either: https://sourceforge.net/projects/yoshimi Or: https://github.com/Yoshimi/yoshimi -- Will J Godfrey http://www.musically.me.uk Say you have a poem and I have a tune. Exchange them and we can both have a poem, a tune, and a song. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@lists.linuxaudio.org https://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
