## Building
|
|
|
|
[](https://travis-ci.com/sfztools/sfizz)
|
|
|
|
Sfizz depends on the `sndfile` library.
|
|
The Jack client that you will probably build depends on the `jack` library.
|
|
To build `sfizz` you need to install both as shared libraries on the system.
|
|
In Debian-based distributions, this translates into
|
|
```sh
|
|
sudo apt install libjack-jackd2-dev libsndfile1-dev
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The process is as follows:
|
|
1. Clone the repository with all the submodules
|
|
2. Create a build directory for CMake and `cd` into it
|
|
3. Prep the Makefiles with the `SFIZZ_CLIENTS` option
|
|
4. Build
|
|
5. Enjoy :)
|
|
|
|
In the shell world, this means
|
|
```sh
|
|
git clone --recursive https://github.com/sfztools/sfizz.git
|
|
cd sfizz
|
|
mkdir build && cd build
|
|
cmake -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -D SFIZZ_CLIENTS=ON ..
|
|
make
|
|
```
|
|
You can then find the Jack client in `clients/sfizz_jack`.
|
|
Just specify an `.sfz` file as a parameter and you are good to go.
|
|
The client will forcefully connect to the system output, and open an event input in Jack for you to connect a midi capable software or hardware (e.g. `jack-keyboard`).
|
|
If no Jack server is already started it will start one with basic options.
|
|
|
|
### Possible pitfalls and alternatives
|
|
|
|
If you already cloned the repository without the `--recursive` option, update the submodules manually with
|
|
```sh
|
|
git submodule update --init --recursive
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You can build with `clang`, although in that case the CMakeFile defaults to using `libc++` instead of `libstdc++`.
