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.

I realized that such a full orchestra setup could be made automatically using the createDAW script.
https://github.com/johnsen/lscp2midnam/blob/master/createDAWStudio.sh
https://github.com/johnsen/lscp2midnam/blob/master/README_scripts

I've added an example for the violas

https://github.com/johnsen/Sonatina-symphonic-orchestra-MIDNAM/blob/master/README.md

All should be there to make your own desired orchestral lscp file. If you make a full orchestral template, it would be nice if you could share it. If you've questions about how this works, don't hesitate (after you did some reading and experimenting yourself first...) to contact me. I don't guarantee that I'll be subscribed to this list, so include my personal email address too.
