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.

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!
