Is Ingen dead?
Is Ingen dead? It looks interesting for building modular synths, but there is hardly any information about it on the internet and I cannot find how to install it on my Linux Mint computer.

Re: Is Ingen dead?
Ingen is in the KXStudio repositories.
Follow the instructions here to add the repositories to your Linux Mint:
https://kx.studio/Repositories
Then search for Ingen using Synaptic (or apt).

Re: Is Ingen dead?
Its homepage is: zhttp://drobilla.net/software/ingen (won't work if you're behind a VPN). They still appear to actively develop it if I look at its git. I can install Ingen in my old Linux Mint LTS Rebecca 17 via the KXStudio repository. Nood need to compile from source.
Seems to be a great peice of software to create your own synth via a gaphical object oriented application. Thanks for the tip, I think I'll try a tutorial to build a simple synth. Might be an alternative for Pure Data.

I bet that link with protocol zhttp won't work for most of the people anyway. At least my firefor does not know such protocol.Linuxmusician01 wrote:Its homepage is: zhttp://drobilla.net/software/ingen (won't work if you're behind a VPN).

Re: Is Ingen dead?
I'm still interested in Ingen as it looks like a Linux alternative to SynthEdit or FlowStone. I found some info and files on GitHub. However following the instructions in the INSTALL-file I immediately ran into an error:
(I can't find Ingen in the KXStudio repositories.)
Code: Select all
/usr/bin/env: ‘python’: No such file or directory

You might want to look into bespokesynth, it's quite similar and actively developed. Alternatively, bitwig offers an environment like ingen.
