LMMS

LMMS is a free cross-platform software which allows you to produce music with your computer. This covers creating melodies and beats, synthesizing and mixing sounds and arranging samples. You can have fun with your MIDI keyboard and much more – all in a user-friendly and modern interface. Furthermore LMMS comes with many ready-to-use instrument and effect plugins, presets and samples.

I've got to say the 1.x.x LMMS series is a vast improvement over the old 0.x.x series, at least in the looks department. The opening splash is certainly more professional than the old one.



vs.



The old one reminds me of that slightly terrifying chihuahua splash screen we used to have here on the earlier Puppy versions. Read this thread for reference (Sadly no reference pic, but I'm sure you can google it. It was pretty memorable. *shudder.)

Back to LMMS.

Where possible I used the dependencies found in the Carolina repository and if not, the same version

Dependencies included in SFS
libsamplerate-0.1.8
fftw-3.3.2
fluidsynth-1.1.6
json-c-0.11
pulseaudio-5.0
jack-audio-connection-kit-0.124.1 (recompiled with firewire driver)
fltk-1.3.2-i486

Does not come with Wine! It was compiled with 1.5.28 but it should be fine with different versions. I use it with 1.4.0 for example. You need Wine for VST support.

Compiled with:

Hahaha! I'd say the chihuahua looks pretty terrified too looking at that pic again.

I feel like I've also seen this fellow stretched out of proportion across a screen, but I can't remember which puplet it was.

Hi.

That's pretty cool.

Downloaded the SFS and loaded into L.A.S.S.I.E. 003 (Precise 5.7.1 based), loaded the LP2_QT-4.8.2.sfs and installed fluid-soundfont-gm_3.1-5_all.deb for a quick test.

First time ever using LMMS.

Looks pretty cool and professional, seems to work fine.

So, what is Carolina based on?

Will Software compiled for Carolina run and work generally in Precise Puppies?

Need to check out the FFADO from Carolina, since I'm using a Phonic Helix 24 MKII Board, which is listed as 'working'.

Thanks for compiling this one.

Carolina is based off Saluki which is a "woof-build based on Racy 5.2 with Xfce". I'm also using the 3.15 kernel but that doesn't seem to affect unless dealing with kernel modules, and LMMS, FFADO, etc. aren't affected.

I don't know if Carolina software will work for Precise, I thought they used different glibcs, but it worked for you so that's great.

Just a question out of curiosity, what's LP2_QT-4.8.2?

[RSH]

[battleshooter]

Whoa, fancy... no pupsave huh?

I do something like that for all my game saves, like .zsnes so I suppose it's not that out there... but for all your applications, interesting...

But why did you need QT at all? It's not a dependency for LMMS?

Somebody, please compile a 2015 version of lmms in sfs.

LMMS is not a jukebox, is it ?

It's smaller than the old version... but compiled with the same dependencies hmm... I did notice the main binary itself was smaller than previous versions. Let me know if anything is missing or doesn't work as expected.

In addition to this, the developers have changed LMMS to not run under root unless the argument --allowroot is passed through. I've added that to the start up menu and created a wrapper script call "startlmms" if needed. But if you run the binary direct, don't forget to pass it as
