Sorcer - OpenAV Productions
===========================

Official page: http://openavproductions.com/sorcer

This is the repository of a wavetable synthesizer called Sorcer.

Install
-------
Use CMake to compile and install Sorcer:
```
mkdir build
cd build

# here we set the pkg-config path to the repo, to pick up `ntk-static`.
# Statically linking NTK makes it simpler to distribute Fabla.
PKG_CONFIG_PATH=../ cmake ..

make
make install

# Verify that the plugin is identified by lv2 tooling
lv2ls | grep Sorcer
```

Note that Sorcer depends on Boost "circular_buffer.hpp", which is not usually
pre-installed on desktop systems. You can install it using your package manager, for example on Ubuntu:
```
sudo apt-get install libboost-dev
```

If an error saying "package NTK not found" occurs, it means the development
files for NTK are not present. The following will download the source for
NTK and install it:
```
git clone https://github.com/linuxaudio/ntk
cd ntk
./waf configure --prefix=/usr
./waf
./waf install
```

Running
-------
After the INSTALL step Ardour3, QTractor, and any other LV2 host should
automatically find Sorcer, and add it to the list of loadable plugins.

If you have the JALV LV2 host installed, the "run.sh" script can be used to
launch Sorcer as a standalone JACK client.

$  ./run.sh

Presets
-------
Presets are included in this repo, and when installed normally they are copied to the
system wide installation directory: `/usr/lib/lv2/`. Each host can save presets in difference directories, so user-saved presets are likely in a different location.

Bug Reports
-----------
Please use the issue tracker on github to report bugs:
https://github.com/harryhaaren/openAV-Sorcer/issues/new

Details
-------
I've removed the dependency on FAUST to install: the generated CPP file is
included in the repo now. To tweak the FAUST code, just edit faust/main.dsp.

Use FAUST with the following command to generate the next .cpp file:
```
faust main.dsp > main.cpp
```

See the `CMakeLists.txt` file in the top directory for instructions on how to
re-compile with the modified FAUST code.

If you have a particular question, email me!
