Trumpet Instrument for SpectMorph

Requirements: you need at least SpectMorph-0.4.0 to follow these instructions.

This is an example instrument for SpectMorph, to allow you to build your own instruments. The samples used to build this are located in samples/trumpet. To build the trumpet instrument from these samples, run

sminstbuilder trumpet

You are responsible for copying the smset file from the instruments/ directory to your

~/.spectmorph/instruments/standard

directory. In this case it is pointless because you already have a trumpet.smset file, but if you build your own instrument, you need to copy it. You also need to add new instruments to

~/.spectmorph/instruments/standard/index.smindex

before you can use them in the SpectMorph UI.

Adding new Instruments:

Each instrument should have its own directory. So to add a new instrument, called plong, you can do something like

mkdir plong
cp trumpet/config plong
...edit plong/config...
sminstbuilder plong

Even after you have created a .smset file, it is recommended to keep your configuration and samples, since newer versions of SpectMorph will probably have a backward incompatible smset files, and you need to rerun sminstbuilder to create a new .smset file.
