Im looking for the fluid~ external, cant find it anywhere. Fluidsynth mention that its included with their package but I'm buggered if I can find it.

If you download/install (at least as of 2018/03/24) a version of PD-L2Ork it shows up in the /usr/lib/pd-l2ork/extra directory.

From my initial testing, it appears to be vanilla-ready, so can be copied into ~/pd-externals and used from there (or where ever you want to point pd to it).

Ciao.

@svanya For Purr Data I ported it from C++ to C.

The original fluid~ used Flext and I encountered some problems when trying to ship Flext with Purr Data.

Hi, I'm on Windows, using PD vanilla or Purr Data or PD l2ork. I just want to use a soundfont in some way. Can someone explain to me how to make the fluid~ object available please? I tried typing [fluid~] in Purr Data, which according to svanya's comment should be available. But I don't know how to make it recognised. Any help appreciated

@Faranta ..I don't use Purr Data but it seems like it should work... perhaps [fluid~/fluid~]?

Thank you, yes, I got it to work eventually. The keyboard widget wasn't working, but fluid~ worked correctly when I sent it messages manually.
