Just install QSampler and it should install LinuxSampler as a dependency.

I install most stuff via command line because I'm too lazy to click a mouse button.

Better install linuxsampler-lv2 and qsampler

Code: Select all

sudo apt install linuxsampler-lv2 qsampler


Also check how to use linuxsampler in Ardour (works the same with other daws btw) . Not the most intuitive but it works great anyway.

Speaking of command line, I have guake installed, a drop down terminal. Press F12 and a terminal drops from the top of the screen. Very handy.

Oh Forgot. :!:
When on Linux Mint ; Mint handles dependencies a bit different so you'll probably need gigedit too.

This may be a slightly better way than trying to get it from Ubuntu / Debian upstream.

Even better would be to compile it yourself. :mrgreen:
