MeV - Synthing its Way Into HaikuPosted on 2007-Nov-10 at 10:03 - Post CommentBuzzer Al Elias of Great Britain has posted a success story to the Haiku user's group that is certainly encouraging. Quoting..."I had MeV up and running in Haiku today. Considering this midi sequencer has languished on sourceforge untouched for over 5 years, I have to say: :a) What a potentially fantastic piece of software this is and b) I was absolutely GOBSMACKED! that MeV fired-up on Haiku without too many issues. "This leads me to state the obvious really. What a waste! "Would anyone be willing to help me resurrect this project? I'm not a coder but have had a fair amount of experience with the interface kit. Fact is, the MeV interface is really quite advanced/mature so my (limited) skill would be of little use here. "I would be prepared to help steer any future development/progress on MeV, write documention and other such stuff if we could garner any devs to help bring the project from 'also ran' status to 'showcase' midi sequencer for Haiku (I helped Alpha test MeV back in 2001 for Christoper Lenz and the MeV team)." So this skillfully written synth program has indeed been successfully tested under Haiku; yet another testimony to the growingly stable, useful nature of this exciting new platform, and an early testament to its usefulness as an audio platform. Here's hoping there are those in the lebuzz reading audience who might be interested in contributing coding to the project. If so, in order to avoid publishing your e-mail address, you can use the Contact form at http://www.tunetrackersystems.com/contact.html and provide me your e-mail address, and I'll put you in touch with Al. |
