fluid~ - GPL'd soundfont external for Pd and Max/MSP
by Frank Barknecht 04 Apr '03

04 Apr '03

Hallo, I'm pleased to announce the first test version of a cross platform external called "fluid~" that provides soundfont synthesis using the advanced fluidsynth library. This is a source-code only release for most systems except Pd on Linux, because I only have access to a Linux system with developer tools, no Mac, no Windows. _ ___ whassit?__ fluid~ is an external build around the free fluidsynth soundfont synthesizer available on www.fluidsynth.org Soundfonts collect digitally sampled instruments. fluid~ converts Pd or (x)Max to a fullblown orchestra with just a single external. To build binaries of fluid, the cross platform external wrapper flext is needed as well. flext is freely (GPL) available at http://www.parasitaere-kapazitaeten.net/Pd/ext or in the pure-data.cvs Currently fluid~ is in an early test stage, but in its prior incarnation under the name "iiwu~" it has proven to be stable for several months. As I only have and use Pd on Linux, I'd be really thankful, if some smart Max-developer would give me a hand (a big hand, actually) in providing (x)Max versions of fluid~, and the same goes for a Windows version of fluid~ for Pd. _ ___getting it __ Source and the Pd binary are available either from this URL: http://footils.org/pkg/fluid-0.1.tgz or without the Pd/Linux-binary in source only form at the Pure Data cvs on Sourceforge: http://pure-data.sourceforge.net Instructions for checking out the source are available on this site, as well. In short checking out fluid goes like this: $ cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.pure-data.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/pure-data login [no password] $ cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.pure-data.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/pure-data co externals/footils/fluid _ __the thankyous __ Credits, thanks and props go out to Peter Hanappe, the primary author of fluid, and to Larry Troxler, author of the older iiwu~ external, on which much of this is based, and of course to the "flext-ernal master" Thomas Grill. ciao -- Frank Barknecht _ ______footils.org__

GET BACK TO ME
by TIMOTHY MALINGA 01 Apr '03

01 Apr '03

0031619774489 AMSTERDAM, THE NETHERLANDS. CONFIDENTIAL BUSINESS PROPOSAL. You may be surprised to receive this letter from me since you do not know me personally. I am Timothy Malinga, the first son of Tawanda Malinga,the most popular black farmer in Zimbabwe who was murdered in the land dispute in my country. I got your contact through network online hence decided to write you. Before the death of my father, he had taken me to Johannesburg to deposit the sum of US8.6 million (Eight million, Six Hundred thousand United States dollars), in one of the private security company, as he foresaw the looming danger in Zimbabwe this money was deposited in a box as gem stones to avoid much demurrage from security company. This amount was meant for the purchase of new machines and chemicals for the Farms and establishment of new farms in Swaziland. This land problem came when Zimbabwean President Mr. Robert Mugabe introduced a new Land Act Reform wholly affecting the rich white farmers and some few black farmers, and this resulted to the killing and mob action by Zimbabwean war veterans and some lunatics in the society. In fact a lot of people were killed because of this Land reform Act for which my father was one of the victims. It is against this background that, I and my family fled Zimbabwe for fear of our lives and are currently staying in the Netherlands where we are seeking political asylum and moreso have decided to transfer my fathers money to a more reliable foreign account. since the law of Netherlands prohibits a refugee (asylum seeker) to open any bank account or to be involved in any financial transaction throughout the territorial zone of Netherlands, As the eldest son of my father, I am saddled with the responsibility of seeking a genuine foreign account where this money could be transferred without the knowledge of my government who are bent on taking everything we have got. The South African government seems to be playing along with them. I am faced with the dilemma of moving this amount of money out of South Africa for fear of going through the same experience in future, both countries have similar political history. As a businessman,I am seeking for a partner who I have to entrust my future and that of my family in his hands, I must let you know that this transaction is risk free. If you accept to assist me and my family, all I want you to do for me, is to make an arrangements with the security company to clear the consignment(funds) from their afiliate office here in the Netherlands as i have already given directives for the consignment to be brought to the Netherlands from South Africa.But before then all modalities will have to be put in place like change of ownership to the consignment and more importantly this money I intend to use for investmentment. I have two options for you. Firstly you can choose to have certain percentage of the money for nominating your account for this transaction. Or you can go into partnership with me for the proper profitable investment of the money in your country. Whichever the option you want, feel free to notify me. I have also mapped out 5% of this money for all kinds of expenses incurred in the process of this transaction. If you do not prefer a partnership I am willing to give you 15% of the money while the remaining 85% will be for my investment in your country. Contact me with the above telephone number or my E-mail address while I implore you to maintain the absolute secrecy required in this transaction. Thanks, GOD BLESS YOU Yours Faithfully, Timothy Malinga.
