Basically just good old 0.58.1 plus Paul's Unison and Reverb updates, plus

Compiles fine for me under lucid x64 w/ jack1 svn but when I run it I just
get:

Flushing log:
ConfigFile not found: /home/iatn/.config/yoshimi/yoshimi.config
Config file /home/iatn/.config/yoshimi/yoshimi.config not available
Yoshimi stages a strategic retreat :-(

There's no yoshimi.config to be found in this or the previous release-
maybe I can get this from the repo?

Hmmm ... I covered it in the 0.060-pre0.notes file, but probably should have
mentioned it in the mail - in line with the debian people's request to comply
with desktop.org standards, the config file has to be moved to $HOME/.config/.
There's code in there that's supposed to create directory
$HOME/.config/yoshimi/
if necessary, and copy the old $HOME/.yoshimiXML.cfg across to
$HOME/.config/yoshimi/yoshimi.config.

Clearly that logic is flawed (although I swear I did test it!). You should be
able to get around that by manually copying
$HOME/.yoshimiXML.cfg -> $HOME/.config/yoshimi/yoshimi.config

And I'll see if I can figure out why.

cheers.

I have an older version of jack so had to use Jeremy's patch, after
that everything seemed fine, compiling on both my 32 bit machine and
the 64 bit one. Had a good run through the patches, and had a bit of a
play with 'unison' - interesting effect that.

One slight oddity. after about an hour's messing about the MIDI
connection broke (ALSA), in qjackctl it showed as still being there but
it weren't doin' nuttin'. Breaking it and re-connecting it cured the
problem and so far it hasn't recurred.
