News

2008-02-15 We're happy to announce that the first freely available sample library is now available on our downloads server. Thanks to Mats Helgesson for giving us the permission to share his "Maestro Concert Grand v2" piano library with you. You find the download link along with the library's license informations and a demo track for prelistening on our instruments site.
2008-02-07 Added Debian Howto to the documentation site, describing how to cook Debian packages, optimized for your specific machine. Get the maximum out of your box! (The "Benchmark" chapter might be interesting for users of other systems as well)
2008-01-23 Due to popular demand we finally launched a forum for this project. The place to be and share questions, stories and the latest gossip is bb.linuxsampler.org
