Right,, the current GUI was never meant to be included in the release but it ended up being too handy to be excluded. This issue is intended to document its shortcomings and plan a proper front-end.

Known issues:

  • the state of the GUI does not reflect the actual state of the synth-engine. It's a one way communication. In particular loading MIDI-programs from the GUI will not update the state that the program sets.
  • the --advanced-mode which allows to send raw MIDI-CC is undocumented and not really usable - a short-term solution to send MIDI-CCs will come in handy
  • the MIDI-programs are hardcoded and do not reflect any programs loaded with setBfree -p option.

Whishlist:

  • the new GUI should be able to run standalone and as well be usable in the synth-Plugins (LV2, VSTi,..)
  • the standalone version should have the look&feel of a B3 and include the piano-manual
  • the plugin version should probably be limited to drawbars and switches (no piano)

version 0.7.2 features all planned items and more -- except it is LV2 plugin only.

This fixes an issue on some systems where the DSP can emit more
messages than the UI can consume in a given time.

Also modern forge.h (1.16.0) does not correctly protect against overflow.
