Hi,

It might be an good idea to make MIDNAM files from the Sonatina SFZ
library. MIDNAM instrument files can be used in Ardour 3.
I found the scripts of the Openoctave team, but I've no knowledge about
orchestras, the amount of violins needed etc.

Here are the scripts:

https://github.com/johnsen/lscp2midnam

I know more or less how they work

\r

First attempt. The path in the lscp file need to be adjust to your local
settings.

https://github.com/johnsen/Sonatina-symphonic-orchestra-MIDNAM.git

See the README

What is a good way to do for the path, e.g. to make it usable for
'everybody'? Assume they place the sonatina folder in ~/ ?

So /home/derick/linuxaudio/linuxaudiodata/sonatina/Sonatina/...

becomes

~/sonatina/Sonatina/...

Or is there is smarter 'linux-way'?

\r
The oomidi team is using

MAP MIDI_INSTRUMENT NON_MODAL 0 0 0 SFZ
'@@OOM_SOUNDS@@/sonatina/Sonatina\x20Symphonic\x20Orchestra/Strings\x20-\x201st\x20Violins\x20Sustain.sfz'


@@OOM_SOUNDS@@ links to /usr/share/sounds or ~/.sounds somehow. Both
places are not ideal imho.

Suggestions?

Btw here are some templates of the oomidi team for LinuxSampler
https://github.com/johnsen/Sonatina-symphonic-orchestra-MIDNAM/tree/master/Oomidi_templates


@Paul I think this sonatina.midnam file is ready to be added to the midnam files in Ardour 3. All though it might be good if people test it.
https://github.com/johnsen/Sonatina-symphonic-orchestra-MIDNAM/blob/master/sonatina.midnam

Afaik, what needs to be edited is the lscp file. It should work now, but users might want to have 4 different channels for the 1st-violin instead of one, to match 4 1st-violin players in an orchestra etc. I think it's up to the community to make this template better.
See also the README
https://github.com/johnsen/Sonatina-symphonic-orchestra-MIDNAM/blob/master/README.md

People who want to use the midnam file for sonatina likely also needs the lscp file for LinuxSampler. It's up to the Ardour devs how they want to serve the Ardour users here.

At the end it might be nice to have an Ardour-sonatina-orchestral-template with busses for convolution reverb etc. At this point I've no interest to do that work. The files in the git repo serve as example and sharing of knowledge.


Regards,
