pythonaudiofluidsynth

pyFluidsynth 'module' object has no attribute 'Synth'

I have both fluidsynth

sudo apt-get install fluidsynth

and pyfluidsynth

sudo pip install pyfluidsynth

installed.

However, when I run the standard import commands, I get the following error:

>>> import fluidsynth
>>> fs = fluidsynth.Synth()
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'Synth'
Solution

  • For whatever reason, it appears as if following your installation directions made you download fluidsynth version 0.2, instead of version 1.2.4, which is the most recent one.

    To install the correct package, uninstall fluidsynth and manually install the correct package (the tar.gz file from the pypi page for fluidsynth):

    pip uninstall pyfluidsynth
pip install -Iv https://pypi.python.org/packages/source/p/pyFluidSynth/pyFluidSynth-1.2.4.tar.gz#md5=60079310701d0b9298b65a8b6728ffcc
