Chris@0 39 There is a need for an API that supports hosted MIDI soft synths
Chris@0 40 with GUIs in Linux audio applications. In time the GMPI initiative
Chris@0 41 should comprehensively address this need, but the requirement for
Chris@0 42 Linux applications to be able to support simple hosted synths is
Chris@0 43 here now, and GMPI is not. This proposal (the "DSSI Soft Synth
Chris@0 44 Interface" or DSSI, pronounced "dizzy") aims to provide a simple
Chris@0 45 solution in a way that we hope will prove complete and compelling
Chris@0 46 enough to support now, yet not so compelling as to supplant GMPI or
Chris@0 47 any other comprehensive future proposal.
Chris@0 48
Chris@0 49 For simplicity and familiarity, this API is based as far as
Chris@0 50 possible on existing work -- the LADSPA plugin API for control
Chris@0 51 values and audio processing, and the ALSA sequencer event types for
Chris@0 52 MIDI event communication. The GUI part of the proposal is quite
Chris@0 53 new, but may also be applicable retroactively to LADSPA plugins
Chris@0 54 that do not otherwise support this synth interface.

Chris@0 196 * some aspect of the synth's configuration that is to be changed,
Chris@0 197 * and the value argument specifies a new value for it. A plugin
Chris@0 198 * that does not require this facility at all may set this member
Chris@0 199 * to NULL.
Chris@0 200 *
Chris@0 201 * This call is intended to set some session-scoped aspect of a
Chris@0 202 * plugin's behaviour, for example to tell the plugin to load
Chris@0 203 * sample data from a particular file. The plugin should act
Chris@0 204 * immediately on the request. The call should return NULL on
Chris@0 205 * success, or an error string that may be shown to the user. The
Chris@0 206 * host will free the returned value after use if it is non-NULL.
Chris@0 207 *
Chris@0 208 * Calls to configure() are not automated as timed events.
Chris@0 209 * Instead, a host should remember the last value associated with
Chris@0 210 * each key passed to configure() during a given session for a
Chris@0 211 * given plugin instance, and should call configure() with the
Chris@0 212 * correct value for each key the next time it instantiates the
Chris@0 213 * "same" plugin instance, for example on reloading a project in
Chris@0 214 * which the plugin was used before. Plugins should note that a
Chris@0 215 * host may typically instantiate a plugin multiple times with the
Chris@0 216 * same configuration values, and should share data between
Chris@0 217 * instances where practical.

Chris@0 222 * Reserved and special key prefixes
Chris@0 223 * ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Chris@0 224 * The DSSI: prefix
Chris@0 225 * ----------------
Chris@0 226 * Configure keys starting with DSSI: are reserved for particular
Chris@0 227 * purposes documented in the DSSI specification. At the moment,
Chris@0 228 * there is one such key: DSSI:PROJECT_DIRECTORY. A host may call
Chris@0 229 * configure() passing this key and a directory path value. This
Chris@0 230 * indicates to the plugin and its UI that a directory at that
Chris@0 231 * path exists and may be used for project-local data. Plugins
Chris@0 232 * may wish to use the project directory as a fallback location
Chris@0 233 * when looking for other file data, or as a base for relative
Chris@0 234 * paths in other configuration values.
Chris@0 235 *
Chris@0 236 * The GLOBAL: prefix
Chris@0 237 * ------------------
Chris@0 238 * Configure keys starting with GLOBAL: may be used by the plugin
Chris@0 239 * and its UI for any purpose, but are treated specially by the
Chris@0 240 * host. When one of these keys is used in a configure OSC call
Chris@0 241 * from the plugin UI, the host makes the corresponding configure
Chris@0 242 * call (preserving the GLOBAL: prefix) not only to the target
Chris@0 243 * plugin but also to all other plugins in the same instance
Chris@0 244 * group, as well as their UIs. Note that if any instance
Chris@0 245 * returns non-NULL from configure to indicate error, the host
Chris@0 246 * may stop there (and the set of plugins on which configure has
Chris@0 247 * been called will thus depend on the host implementation).

Chris@0 370 *
Chris@0 371 * 1. A host must never send events of type SND_SEQ_EVENT_NOTE.
Chris@0 372 * Notes should always be sent as separate SND_SEQ_EVENT_NOTE_ON
Chris@0 373 * and NOTE_OFF events. A plugin should discard any one-point
Chris@0 374 * NOTE events it sees.
Chris@0 375 *
Chris@0 376 * 2. A host must not attempt to switch notes off by sending
Chris@0 377 * zero-velocity NOTE_ON events. It should always send true
Chris@0 378 * NOTE_OFFs. It is the host's responsibility to remap events in
Chris@0 379 * cases where an external MIDI source has sent it zero-velocity
Chris@0 380 * NOTE_ONs.
Chris@0 381 *
Chris@0 382 * Bank and Program Events
Chris@0 383 * ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Chris@0 384 * Hosts must map MIDI Bank Select MSB and LSB (0 and 32)
Chris@0 385 * controllers and MIDI Program Change events onto the banks and
