After nearly two years without updates, I just committed code at
synthclone.googlecode.com (now using GIT) that will eventually be
morphed into the next version of `synthclone`. The application has
been rewritten and redesigned to accommodate a more dynamic workflow.
Some of the new features include:
- A plugin API for developers to extend the functionality of
`synthclone`. The plugin API allows developers to do just about
everything that the actual application can do.
- A table interface, allowing for editing of parameters (channel,
note, velocity, aftertouch, controls). You now control what MIDI data
`synthclone` sends to retrieve samples.
- Session loading/saving (including JACK session support in the JACK plugin).
- Dynamic sampling/playback of samples.
- Multiple patch (target) creation.
There are still a couple of things currently missing from `synthclone`
that were available in the old version:
- SFZ patch support. I'm preparing to write the plugin for SFZ
support after I finish this message.
- Raw patch support. I'll write a plugin to handle raw targets at some point.
I've attached a screenshot of the new `synthclone` to this message.
I need feedback and help stamping out bugs. If any of you are feeling
brave and want to help, then you can checkout the latest version of
`synthclone` using git:
git clone https://code.google.com/p/synthclone/
Follow the installation instructions in the INSTALL file to build and
install `synthclone`, and report any issues, feature requests,
enhancements (especially in regards to usability and user interface
design), etc. using the issue tracker at:

Thanks in advance,
