I mean, those by "Vasiliy Basic". Some of them, like #50 sound quite similar to the examples at https://bristol.sourceforge.net/mini.html, but others, like many of "Drums", give nothing more than just a click instead, nothing like the example. I use debian-packaged version 0.60.11-3.1 with jack and it bugs me that it can be something wrong with my setup. On the other hand, those presets are quite old and maybe something has changed in the engine making them sounding different? Can anyone enlighten...

I decided to start fresh by re-installing Rasberry Pi Os and qjackctl and bristol and tada, its working now with Scarlett 2i2 USB audio interface. Not sure what was wrong before.

I installed Bristol on a Raspberry Pi 4B and installed qjackctl. I can start Bristol without any issues (for instance startBristol -mini -midi alsa). I can also start qjackctl & and connect a midi input to Bristol, and Bristol's outputs to system->playback_1 and system->playback_2 using theqjackctl Graph GUI. I am using the headphone jack on the RPi 4B. Once I make these connections, I can hear a little bit of audio when I play notes on the Bristol gui or with the midi controller. But, the audio...

Hi, Bristol is magnificent! I am able to connect Bristol audio using QjackCtrl. I cannot connect my iRig Keys. The Bristol MIDI input in the QjackCtrl graph is red and doesn't allow connection. What am i doing wrong? Thanks, J. Wells

Howdy, I'm trying to install Bristol on Fedora 32 and I'm getting some compile issues. Even though I have the alsa-lib-devel package installed, I'm getting this error: audioEngineJack.c:42:10: fatal error: alsa/iatomic.h: No such file or directory 42 | #include <alsa iatomic.h=""></alsa> It seems that the iatomic.h file has been removed in recent versions of alsa. See for example here: https://github.com/RTcmix/RTcmix/issues/22 Is there an easy fix for this? Thanks, Oliver

Hi Sorry for late reply. Switched from RPI to Laptop running Ubuntu with success. Installed Bristol but still not sound Next ran startBristol -audio alsa -mini and heard sound from laptop speakers. Next to work out how to get sound from external miniminx speakers. Installed qjackctl but would not run. After some research found I first need to kill pulseaudio to run qjackctl. Connected Bristol to system in qjackctl selected minimix in setup and at last sound from external speakers. Next challenge...

Are you trying to use ALSA directly? In any case, do you have a USB audio adapter? I ask because the last time I tried to run a synth on a Pi3B+, the builtin audio device was just about useless.
-
HI dbtx Thank you for your reply. I did try installing Bristol using apt-get and it did install and run (used startBristol -mini if I remember correctly). It ran but no sound. Tried a few thing I found on the net to rectify the fault. Can't remember exactly what I did but without success. I plan to install a fresh copy of RPIs OS and try again. Do you know if there is a guide to connect the audio and midi? Will post how things go. Thanks again

Hello, the Pi family's CPUs don't have SSE instructions, so that build of GCC naturally doesn't even have the options to indicate they should be used. You can try to remove those hardcoded optimization flags from bristol/Makefile.{in,am} possibly enabling auto-detection of the current CPU with -march=native. Here's a patch that does that, and I hope that GCC already complained about all the things it didn't like. Those flags also appear in libbristol/Makefile.{in,am} but the lines appear to be commented...

I have an external USB JBL Audio Interface (IEC 958) that is the default output device. VLC, Audacity, Audacious all use the external device. When I startBristol, it shows that it is using Plug PCM: Hardware PCM card 0 'HDA Intel PCH' device 0 subdevice 0, which if I am not mistaken, is the built in audio, which I do not use or connect speakers to. How can I direct Bristol to use the JBL External Audio device?

I'd like to use "Bristol" with a DAW, not necessarily with a keyboard. But DAW comply with GM/GS standard and support 128 banks 128 patches per bank (0-based). Bristol uses somtimes linear 0 - 999 store-places (see DX7) linear without a bank. How can I reach patches/places higher than 127? e.g. by a ProgramChange? Regulary I use the MusE Sequenzer.

Hi Alexandre It looks like your are missing the ALSA and Jack audio drivers. Did you install bristol from source, compiling it? Normally you would install from apt-get, that would be compiled with these drivers and you should get better results. If not then you need to install things like jackd-lib-dev and asound2-dev, then ./configure and 'make install. Regards, nick. "at the end of the day its nil nil at half time???.

Hi dear community and Nick Copeland. I bought the Bristol mini "moog" app for android a few days ago and it is great. The last days i tried to use it with my Akai mpk mini usb midi keyboard. other music apps works great with that keyboard. But not with the best app i think: your mini synth! Now i play with the thought to buy all the other 10 nick copeland apps because i think they are amazing. before that i need a profile which work with the synthesizers and the usb midi keyboard on Android. i tried...

Hi, I am trying to use bristol 0.60.10 on an ibook ppc g3 clamshell running Debian 7 wheezy. startBristol -alsa successfully opens playback on the built-in soundcard; then it tries to open capture on it, but the card is playback only and bristol fails. Am I missing something ? I don't think I need capture, just playback.

I realised I needed to send it on a different cc channel 0, my mistake. Continuous controllers 13-31 are generic.

Hi Nick, Thanks for all of your hard work! I'm mapping pots to midi with python, and then midi learning them inside Bristol, This works fine, but I can only write to Midi channel0, it ignores packets from all other channels, is there any way Bristol/Brighton can read input from multiple midi channels? Cheers Gary
