options:

-s DIRECTORY, --save DIRECTORY: Use this directory to save. Will be created or loaded from if already present. Deactivates Agordejo/NewSession-Manager support.

USAGE

Tembro (which is Esperanto for musical "Timbre") is a virtual software instrument based on samples. All instruments are permanently built-in, there is no option to load your own files. New instruments are only added with new releases, old ones are never removed.

That makes Tembro reliable, predictable, portable and compatible. All projects and all users have the same "instrument" with the same instrument sounds, numbering system, midi controls??? ; a solid basis for communication and collaboration.

EXAMPLES

Start tembro through NSM, e.g. through Agordejo. This will take care of all settings and save directories.

Other modes of operations, mostly for testing, are:

Run without session management and save in /tmp.
tembro --save /tmp

Run without audio and midi. Skips all JACK checks. Used to just look at the GUI, e.g. to make screenshots
tembro --mute
