💖 LD10K1 💖

okay bestie, sit DOWN, because we're talking about ld10k1 — the emu10k1(emu10k2) patch loader daemon, section 8 of your friendly neighborhood manual pages 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

ld10k1 — emu10k1(emu10k2) patch loader daemon

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

ld10k1 [option...]

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

This manual page documents briefly the ld10k1 command. Yes, briefly. We're keeping it cute and concise, that's the vibe 💅

Real talk though: this manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the original program does not have a manual page. So like, we had to step in and write one ourselves. Not me doing unpaid labor for a daemon, but here we are 🫶

ld10k1 is a program that...

bestie. it literally ends there in the original. "is a program that..." and then NOTHING. the sentence just walks out mid-thought. no cap. i am not about to invent lore for it either, because we keep the facts EXACTLY as they are. so: ld10k1 is a program that... ✨the mystery✨ 😭

👑 OPTIONS 👑

This program follow the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with two dashes (that's the - character, bestie, and you need TWO of them for the long ones).

  • -h | --help — Prints a short help message. short king behavior, iconic 💖
  • -c num | --card num — Use card num — ld10k1 will use device with name hw:num. pick your card like you're picking a fit 🌈
  • -d | --daemon — Run ld10k1 in the background as a daemon. it's going off-grid, living its main character life in the background, not bothering your terminal 🧚
  • -i file | --pidfile file — Print daemon process id to file, default /var/run/ld10k1.pid. yes the default is literally that path, don't come for me 💅
  • -l file | --logfile file — Log to file. receipts. keeping the receipts 📝
  • -n | --network — Use TCP/IP instead of named Unix sockets for communication. switching up the whole communication style, networking era 🔥
  • -p name | --pipe_name name — lo10k1 will use a local named pipe named name to communication with the linker. Default is /tmp/.ld10k1_port. (yes, the original says "to communication" and we are preserving that energy verbatim in meaning, bestie 😭)
  • --port portnum — Listen on port. Port 20480 is default. she's listening 👂
  • -t size | --tram_size size — Initialize initial TRAM size to size. size Size is in samples and can be one of:
    • 0 — external tram is disabled (it said no ❌)
    • 1 — 16 K = 16384 samples
    • 2 — 32 K = 32768 samples
    • 3 — 64 K = 65536 samples
    • 4 — 128 K = 131072 samples
