[ANN] Drumlabooh 6: Quick Kits and Net Installer

Post by peter.semiletov »

Hello!
Drumlabooh 6.0.0 is out - https://github.com/psemiletov/drumlaboo ... /tag/6.0.0

Please try console program drumlabooh-net-install (https://github.com/psemiletov/drumlaboo ... et-install) to install already compiled binaries (with github actions) and drumkits. drumlabooh-net-install is a Go program (the source is here: https://github.com/psemiletov/drumlabooh-net-install). I need feedback about drumlabooh-net-install and binaries, how they are compatible with different distros.

On Arch, as usual, you can also "yay -S drumlabooh" to build from the source.

So, Just after a previous "big update" here is another one. Ready-to-use drumkits are good thing, but what about all that thouthands sample packs, commercial and free? We need a way to load and play any samples, not just from the drumkits!
Thus, Drumlabooh 6 introduces the conception of Quick Kits (see the "Quick Custom Kits" section of the Manual). Using buttons "+" and "-" near the cell/slot name, you can add any external samples to the sample slots, remove samples from the slots, and save it as the Quick Kit with some name.
Other news and fixes for this release - GUI at the multi-channel mode has been fixed; many few and boring fixes. Windows build rolled back to compile with JUCE 7, to make it compatible with Windows 7.
The Manual at the homesite (https://psemiletov.github.io/drumlabooh/) is rewritten a lot.

HI, to be honest, I think that Go it's an unfortunate choice. I dont' think it is installed by default on many distros.
Anyway, keep it up !

It is the static build, you don't need to install Go :) Just run the installer.

Some more words about why I used Go for Net Installer. Go compiler produces statically linked binary by default, and has all functions that the installer need - net and unzip stuff. So Drumlabooh Net Installer is the static binary that can be run at (I suppose) any modern distro. It downloads binaries of LV2/VST3i of Drumlabooh (made at Github's actiions), and drumkits, unzips them and install at proper local directories at $HOME. It is much faster then to build Drumlabooh from the source.
