jOrgan Pup 2011.6
jOrgan Pup 2011.6 is a Puppy Linux 5.2.5 based Live CD distribution that comes with jOrgan and various instruments pre-installed. Please see the list below for further details on which instruments are included in this release. The Live CD can be booted straight from your CD or DVD drive, and all the instruments can be configured and played directly from the CD - allowing you to test the performance of your computer without having to mess with the current operating system. You can then create a Save file that will contain all your local configurations (which means that you just boot from the CD to play again), or install the CD to a USB memory stick or to a Harddrive.
There are two software reverberation systems configured in this release of jOrgan Pup - Fluidsynth Reverb, and Convolution Reverb. All of the BCA argonon's have been configured with no fluidsynth reverb settings. This is so that you can experience the argonons with the more realistic convolution reverb engine. Please see the Working with Convolution Reverb topic before you load and play any of these dispositions. Many of the other dispositions have new settings that allow you to adjust the fluidsynth reverb configuration to better suit your taste and audio environment.
