3 years ago 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.

3 years ago 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
> fluidsynth -g 1.0 -a alsa -o midi.alsa_seq.id=fs2 ~/DAW/_setup/soundfonts/FluidR3_GM.sf2

>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
fluidsynth <your-path>/FluidR3_GM.sf2 <your-path>05-ScarboroughFair.mid
do hear any sound? Then type settings i get:
> settings
audio.coreaudio.device default
audio.driver coreaudio
...then try
fluidsynth-a pulseaudio <your-path>/FluidR3_GM.sf2 <your-path>05-ScarboroughFair.mid
do you get this message:
fluidsynth: error: Couldn't find the requested audio driver pulseaudio. Valid drivers are: coreaudio, file.
The try (you guest it):
fluidsynth-a coreaudio <your-path>/FluidR3_GM.sf2 <your-path>05-ScarboroughFair.mid
do you hear any sound? If you do please change this line https://github.com/pianobooster/PianoBooster/blob/f57ccb310ae31d48d58db3e3cfbc81b4ba31aad1/src/GuiMidiSetupDialog.cpp#L86 to "coreaudio". I can easily make that change if prefer not put in a pull request but please let me know the results. thanks for reporting this.

3 years ago 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:
fluidsynth: error: Error setting the audio callback. Status=-66748Googling for macos error "-66748" brings up some interesting results. One of which I have posted here:
https://github.com/PortAudio/portaudio/issues/218
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.

Also please start PB app from the command line and post the logs

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)
