pianobooster cannot be opened because of a problem #290

If I build the app and dmg from the source code it will open. However it doesn't play any sound even when the SoundFont is loaded.

Sorry I need to update the web site for the macos . Please see this thread on the user forum. http://piano-booster.2625608.n2.nabble.com/Running-PianoBooster-on-MacOs-Catalina-10-15-5-td7572892.html with the links to the other macos builds. Please also follow these instructions https://www.pianobooster.org/faq.html#somethings-wrong-i-have-tried-uninstalling-and-reinstalling and it should default to the correct audio driver for MacOS I would thought you would want Core Audio for the mac not Pulse Audio. Please report back if changing that setting fixes the issue. |

The app in PianoBooster-macos-10.15-1.0.0.dmg opens, but still no sound. Pulse audio is the only option in the FluidSynth screen. Tried deleting ~/.config/PianoBooster/Piano Booster.ini but no changes. Also, the commands for fluidsynth don't work on Mac |

Ok great you have just found a bug. Since you have a mac have built it on the mac could you please put a pull request for the fix after you have tested it works. Thanks. Please try these tests that I have just run on my mac: type
do hear any sound? Then type then try do you get this message:
The try (you guest it):
do you hear any sound? If you do please change this line PianoBooster/src/GuiMidiSetupDialog.cpp Line 86 in f57ccb3 |
|
|
Still, no sound when I make the changes to PianoBooster/src/GuiMidiSetupDialog.cpp
This is from Ableton if it helps:

Ok it looks like you have hit a fluidsynth problem and it is not a PianoBooster problem. I have done a bit of googling and this thread has exactly the same problem as you https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/fluid-dev/2021-02/msg00003.html. The original poster has exactly the same problem as you: Googling for It looks like this might be a problem with fluidsynth using a deprecated MacOS API. You have three options:
Option 3 might not be as hard as you think. First you have to find an audio sample code that works for you and then compare the calls used with the fluidsynth method. If you post your progress on the fluidsynth mailing list I am sure others will help you. Even though this is not a PianoBooster problem I will leave this issue open as it might help others. |

Ha i have just see this spatialaudio/python-sounddevice#299 (comment) |
|
It didn't work for me... |
|
Maybe this helps but not sure how to incorporate it into the build Add an entry into the Info.plist: AudioComponents (Array) |
|
this works on the cli: but doesn't on the app:
|
|
You can alway start fluidsynth on the command line (without a midi file) and then fluidsynth should then appear as midi device in PB. Also please start PB app from the command line and post the logs |
|
this works:
Not sure how to start PB from the command line |
|
For the terminal window type: press enter and then post output from the terminal window. |
|
Here it gooes: |
|
Thanks ... But I need it when PB is not working and the internal fluidsynth is selected with the portaudio output selected. Also try a make clean (probably this won't make any difference) |
|
This is what I get: fluidsynth: error: Error setting the audio callback. Status=-66748 I get the same message for both portaudio and coreaudio
|
|
It would help if we actual set the audio driver in fluidsynth we are still using the default coreaudio audio output. please change the flowing line: PianoBooster/src/MidiDeviceFluidSynth.cpp Line 91 in f57ccb3 to this: |
|
Same message for both coreaudio and portaudio after a clean and make...
|
|
Just to eliminate this 100% you did also make that change above to Line 91 . |
|
yes... the code is changed like in the pic above. Cleaned and compiled again. Same errors. |

Hi Louis ;-) Any chance to get Pianobooster to run on Mojave ? pianobooster cannot be opened because of a problem. |
|
@topazUK I have just finally got around to updating the website with both builds for macOS. Please test both macOS builds on the download page of the pianobooster website and let me know if any of those work for you. |
|
I've just downloaded the latest .dmg from the website at https://www.pianobooster.org/download.html. It installs ok, but only pulseaudio is avaiable.
|
I can't open the latest version after copying the file from the PianoBooster-macOS-1.0.0.dmg into the applications folder.
