SO-KL5 v.1.2 by 50m30n3 2009-1011

SO-KL5 is a string based "piano" synthezizer. The strings are modeled using the Karplus-Strong String simulation method.

To run the synth you need Jack and ALSA. You can set a different midi channel by starting the program using the channel number as argument. The default channel is zero.

All synthesis parameters can be edited using MIDI CC messages.

Parameter list: CC#1 - Sustain CC#7 - Volume CC#64 - Sustain CC#71 - Filter Resonance CC#73 - Attack CC#74 - Filter Cutoff

Sustain can be controlled by CC#1 (Mod Wheel) and CC#64 (Sustain) to make control easier for people without a sustain pedal.

To compile the code you need the ALSA and Jack developement files.
