I did get sources for Juno-1.0.1, back in February of last year (2002/02/10, to be exact!), and I even had it mostly working with OSS (had to patch the code to bypass the HPF, and I couldn't use any MIDI, but other than that it was basically working). I had a few brief communications with one of the authors and intended to continue getting that package to work, but I unfortunately got side-tracked with other things. I haven't tried it at all since switching to an ALSA based system (and my music workstation is currently busy with a Knoppix demo, or I'd try it right now), but I do intend to get it compiled again, and this time I might even be able to use a MIDI controller! :-) In the meantime, interested readers might want to check out Bristol, (http://www.slabexchange.org/index.cgi?DOWNLOAD), mentioned in Dave Phillips' "Softsynth Roundup" article (Thanks for that article, by the way!). It has a Juno mode which seems to work quite well, at least as far as I can tell. That package's primary benefit is that is has numerous modes of operation (Juno, MiniMoog, Exporer, Prophet-5, Prophet-10, B3, DX7, Vox Continental, and Rhodes; am I missing any?) The drawback is that it's binary-only, but otherwise apparently free to use. -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Sylvain Robitaille syl@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Major in Electroacoustic Studies Concordia University Faculty of Fine Arts / Music Department Montreal, Quebec, Canada ----------------------------------------------------------------------
