how to install on ubuntu 16.04 this program?
i built this program but i can't running this.

Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/andrei/.local/bin/outsider", line 9, in <module> load_entry_point('outsider==0.0.2', 'gui_scripts', 'outsider')() File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 542, in load_entry_point return get_distribution(dist).load_entry_point(group, name) File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 2569, in load_entry_point return ep.load() File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 2229, in load return self.resolve() File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 2235, in resolve module = __import__(self.module_name, fromlist=['__name__'], level=0) File "/home/andrei/.local/lib/python3.5/site-packages/outsider-0.0.2-py3.5.egg/outsider/__main__.py", line 22, in <module> import blackstarid File "/home/andrei/.local/lib/python3.5/site-packages/outsider-0.0.2-py3.5.egg/blackstarid/__init__.py", line 18, in <module> from blackstarid import BlackstarIDAmp, NoDataAvailable, NotConnectedError ImportError: cannot import name 'BlackstarIDAmp'

I have the right packet installed (python3-pyqt5 python3-usb python3-setuptools)

No local packages or working download links found for PyQt5
error: Could not find suitable distribution for Requirement.parse('PyQt5')

Here are instructions to install in Debian 9:

sudo apt-get install git python3-pyqt5 python3-usb python3-setuptools
git clone https://github.com/jonathanunderwood/outsider.git
sudo python3 setup.py install
sudo cp -a blackstar-id.rules /etc/udev/rules.d/69-blackstar-id.rules
sudo udevadm control --reload-rules

And it's fine. Thank you for this great work !

At present we grab all interfaces at startup, including the various audio in and out interfaces. This is unecessary for simply controlling the amp, and prevents other apps from using those audio interfaces. Instead we should probe for the interrupt interface, and then claim only that.

I'm using an ID Core Stereo 40 amp and Mint 18 Cinnamon.
In Insider Windows version, I could load custom presets by saving to a specific folder.

In Outsider the 6 default patches works as they should, but there are some more showing in the list with unreadable gibberish. They do not load in the software and the renaming is not working, as it seems to change the number in the list, but the text does not change to the new name.

At present no GUI element is present for tuner mode selection/detection and tuner data handling.

For the flanger effect, there is an invisible control for manual. This is control 0x14 (between mod_segval and mod_level). Range is the standard 0-127. To my ear sounds like it does what you'd expect - control the offset of the delay.

Does not appear to have an effect on the other modulation types.

There should be a corresponding entry in the presets for this, but don't know which slot.

Hi,

I just tested with a blackstar ID beam, when I try to connect I get:

Is it compatible?

Currently we use the fusion template by default (shipped with Qt), but ideally we'd use a custom template to improve the appearance. Qdarkstyle looks like a possible candidate, but it's fairly heavyweight.

At present we don't have any GUI elements for:

1. Preset selection
2. Preset renaming
3. Preset saving

I had to install (Ubuntu 14.04)

python3-pyqt5
pyqt5-dev

rather than

python-qt5

Not sure if this is just my machine or a general change to the naming, not particularly familiar with Python

Thanks for the awesome work. I've taken your work here and put together an Android app version. It is incomplete, for sure, but as maybe 80% functionality so far: https://github.com/thompsch/blackstar_droid.
