gigedit is an instrument editor allowing to modify existing Gigasampler files, as well as creating new ones from scratch. The GUI is based on the GTK+ (gtkmm) toolkit. Even though it is created as a subproject of the LinuxSampler project, it is currently a completely independent stand-alone editor.

samplv1 is an old-school all-digital polyphonic sampler synthesizer with stereo effects.

Although other samplers like specimen provide more features, one could find samplv1 much easier and accessible. Plus, it is provided in both forms of a JACK stand-alone client and a LV2 plugin.

This package provides the standalone app.
