> HOW TO USE THE PLUGIN
> ---------------------
>
> To use the plugin, you need the following:
>
> * A program (host) that loads LV2 plugins.
>
> * A MIDI controller.
>
> * An audio output device. :-)
>
> The following LV2 hosts are known to work with this plugin:
>
> Ingen http://drobilla.net/blog/software/ingen/
> ardour3 (alpha) http://ardour.org/
> lv2_jack_host http://drobilla.net/software/slv2/
> zynjacku http://home.gna.org/zynjacku/
>
> If you don't have a hardware MIDI controller, I suggest using
> jack-keyboard (http://jack-keyboard.sourceforge.net/).
>
> The first time you run the sampler, it will create a file
> ~/.composite/data/presets/default.xml, which will set up presets on
> Bank 0 for the two default drum kits (GMkit and TR808EmulationKit).
> Sending MIDI PC 0 and PC 1 will switch between the two kits. See
> composite_sampler(1) for more information on setting up presets.
>
> ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
> ---------------
>
> With this release, I would especially like to thank:
>
> Alessio Treglia - For dutifully reporting bugs, submitting
> patches, and *patiently* waiting for me to review them.
>
> Paul Davis - For working with me on the crashes that were
> discovered on ardour3 alpha.

> Peace,
> Gabriel M. Beddingfield
Hey Gabriel, congratulations for your release. I'll try it soon-ish.
I'm just writing because on thing hit my eye:
~/.composite/data/presets/default.xml
It would probably be nicer if it went into
$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/.composite/data/presets/default.xml
XDG_CONFIG_HOME is pretty generally accepted as the location for user
specific config files these days. As usual I can't find the spec
though...
Regards,
Philipp
