The Laptop Accordion Code

WTF

It's a laptop. Or an accordion. You decide. And for a decidedly academic take on things, check out our paper in NIME. If you just want to play the accordion, click the releases tab at the top of the page and download the correct release for your platform. If you want to try the nightmare that is compiling the accordion, read on.

Compilation

1. Download OpenFrameworks 0.9.0 for your platform.
2. Create a new project using the project generator.
3. Copy the appropriate directory in this repo on top of the project.
4. In the XCode or VS 2015 project, add all files in the src folder.
5. See below for instructions on how to compile and link FluidSynth.

FluidSynth Windows

On Windows, simply copy the FluidSynth directory to be a sibling directory of your OpenFrameworks installation. In Visual Studio 2015, add all files in the include subdirectory to your project (or add that as a compiler search path), then add the lib directory to the linker search path. Add libfluidsynth.lib to the list of linkages. Hit build. If and when you get linker errors on your first build, copy the DLL in lib to your application bin directory.

FluidSynth OSX

On OSX, copy the FluidSynth directory to be a sibling directory of your OpenFrameworks installation. In XCode, add all files in the include subdirectory to your project. Now install Homebrew and do brew install fluidsynth before continuing. With FluidSynth installed, just add the file lib/libfluidsynth.1.dylib to your project.
