Seq24 - Real time MIDI sequencer
SYNOPSIS
seq24 [OPTIONS] [FILENAME]
DESCRIPTION
Seq24 is a real-time midi sequencer. It was created to provide a very simple interface for editing and playing midi 'loops'.
OPTIONS
Seq24 accepts the following options:
--help Display a list of all commandline options
--version
Display the program version
--file <filename>
Load MIDI file on startup
--manual_alsa_ports
Seq24 won't attach alsa ports
--showmidi
Dumps incoming midi to screen
--priority
Runs higher priority with FIFO scheduler
--pass_sysex
Passes any incoming sysex messages to all outputs
--ignore <number>
Ignore ALSA device <number>
--show_keys
Prints pressed key value
--interaction_method <number>
Select mouse interaction method (0 = seq24) (default) (1 = fruity loops method)
--jack_transport
seq24 will sync to JACK transport
--jack_master
seq24 will try to be JACK master
--jack_master_cond
JACK master will fail if there is already a master
--jack_start_mode <x>
When seq24 is synced to JACK, the following play modes are available: (0 = live mode) (1 = song mode) (default)
--stats Print statistics on commandline while running
--jack_session_uuid <uuid>
Set uuid for jack session

jack-dssi-host - a simple JACK host for DSSI plugins
SYNOPSIS
jack-dssi-host [-v] [-a] [-n] [-p <projdir>] [-c <cname>] [-<i>] <libname>[:<label>] [...]
DESCRIPTION
jack-dssi-host is a simple DSSI host that listens for MIDI events on an ALSA sequencer port, delivers them to DSSI synth plugins, and out-
puts the resulting audio via JACK.
jack-dssi-host can host up to 16 instances of DSSI synth plugins, each of which is sequentially assigned a MIDI channel from 1 to 16.
Plugin outputs (if `-a' is not specified) are connected sequentially to the available JACK physical output ports, wrapping back to the
first JACK port whenever the available ports are exhausted. Plugin user interfaces (UIs) are started for each instance (if '-n' is not
specified.) jack-dssi-host will exit when the last plugin UI has exited.
As a special case, if jack-dssi-host is started with a name other than `jack-dssi-host', and if that name (plus an `.so' suffix) can be
found in the DSSI_PATH search path (see ENVIRONMENT below) as a valid plugin shared library, and if no further command line arguments are
given, then the first plugin in that library will be loaded automatically. This provides a convenient way to run a plugin by simply sym-
linking the plugin's basename to jack-dssi-host.
OPTIONS -v Verbose mode.
-a Disable automatic connection of outputs to JACK physical outputs.
-n Disable automatic starting of plugin user interfaces (UIs).
-p <projdir>
The project directory to pass to both plugin and UI.
-c <cname>
The client name to use for ALSA and JACK.
-<i> Number of instances of the following plugin to run (max 16 total, default 1).
<libname>
Name of the DSSI plugin shared library (.so) to load. This may be an absolute path to the library file, or just the filename itself,
in which case the DSSI search path is searched (see ENVIRONMENT below).
<label>
the label of the plugin to load from the library. If this is omitted, the first plugin in the library is used.
[...] Optionally more instance counts, plugins and labels.
EXAMPLE
jack-dssi-host -2 lib1.so -1 lib2.so:fuzzy
Runs two instances of the first plugin found in lib1.so, assigned to MIDI channels 1 and 2 and connected to the first available JACK out-
puts, and one instance of the "fuzzy" plugin in lib2.so on MIDI channel 3 and connected to the next available JACK output.
ENVIRONMENT
jack-dssi-host will search for plugin shared libraries in the directories specified by the environment variable DSSI_PATH, which is a
colon-separated list of directories. If DSSI_PATH is not set, a default search path of /usr/lib/dssi, /usr/local/lib/dssi, and (assuming
the environment variable HOME is set,) $HOME/.dssi is used.
