Download page on Sourceforge.net with all previous versions. GNU also mirror stable and unstable and unstable releases.

Some of you will eventually have some problems. Possible ressources: Installing Solfege, Sound setup, Mailing Lists and Solfege on Win 32 (if you for some reason want to try to build the windows installer yourself. Hint: you don't.)

Stable release: Solfege 3.14.11

This is the recommended release for end users.

• Windows installer. Sourcecode of the precompiled programs included in the binary are available here.
• Autopackage package This is a linux binary installer that will work on most i386 linux distributions. It is compiled for Python 2.4, but it will work for most people running Python 2.5 if you just ignore a few warnings.
• Mandriva 2008.1: RPM packages for Mandriva i586. Instructions to configure the repository.
• Solfege on MacOSX
• Source tarball
• winPenPack package for USB stick: This package is created by the winPenPack people, so please report packaging related bugs to them.

Development release: Solfege 3.15.8

• Source tarball
• Autopackage package
• MS Windows installer
• Bzr repository.

Nightly builds

A buildbot creates a source tarball of the latest code from the bzr repository. We hope to add autopackage and MS Windows binary builds. Download nightly builds here.

Extra programs

GNU Solfege can make use of some external programs for special features. These programs are not required for most of the exercises, but some people will probably want to install them.

These programs are usually included on your linux distribution. On debian or Ubuntu, just to apt-get install timidity mma csound lilypond to install all these programs.

Installing timidity on MS Windows

Download http://www.aboutmidi.com/midisoftware/timidity.exe and run the installer.

As "Midi file player" on the preferences window you should enter c:\timidity\timidity.exe or c:\timidity\MidiPlay.bat. Adjust the path if you install timidity elsewhere. The .bat file will set some options setting reverb etc, and will give a little different sound.

Installing MMA on MS Windows

Download the MMA tar package from http://www.mellowood.ca/mma/downloads.html and unpack it somewhere. Then in the GNU Solfege preferences window, you give the path to the mma.py script, for example C:\mma-bin-1.5\mma.py.

If this sounds too difficult, you can download a mma installer from http://winmma.sourceforge.net/. It probably will install in C:\MMA, and you should the set C:\MMA\mma.py in the GNU Solfege preferences window.

Installing CSound on MS Windows

Download CSound from sourceforge.net. Most versjons should work. I have tested 5.09 and 5.10.

GNU Lilypond

Download 2.10 from http://lilypond.org/web/install/
