I just discovered this new Buzz Clone, called ALDRIN, a wonderfull modular tracker : you can plug machines and effects together, including LADSPA plugins , then create some patterns, and finally create a song. You can also use sound samples to play with. A rpm exists on fedora repository.
For information , please find my installation to compile aldrin on a Fedora 10 system. Otherwhise , please use instructions here : http://code.google.com/p/aldrin-sequencer/
1) install dependencies
sudo yum install mercurial scons libsndfile libsndfile-devel flac flac-devel qjackctl \
jack-audio-connection-kit-devel wxPython-devel wxPython python-ctypes libsamplerate-devel gcc-c++ dssi-devel.i386
2) install armstrong (previously called libzzub
hg clone http://bitbucket.org/paniq/armstrong
cd armstrong
scons debug=False configure
scons debug=False
sudo scons debug=False install
cd src/pyzzub
python setup.py build
sudo python setup.py install
note that I had to create /etc/ld.so.conf.d/aldrin.conf , with the following line :
/usr/local/lib/
if you have an error saying
"ImportError: No module named aldrin.main", then you can add the following in ~/.bashrc :
export PYTHONPATH="/usr/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages/"
3) install Aldrin
hg clone http://bitbucket.org/paniq/aldrin/
cd aldrin
sudo scons PREFIX=/usr/local
sudo scons debug=False install
4) launch it and play ;)
