Hello,

there's a new package in Debian Testing and it took us some time making
it build for big-endian hardware.

Now that buildd doesn't complain, I'd love to hear from actual users of
big-endian hardware if the binaries work for you.

It's called "Sonic Pi"

https://packages.debian.org/stretch/sonic-pi

...and it's a music synthesizer controlled by code. The software needs a
graphical desktop, but it should work on lower-end hardware (its main
platform is the Raspberry Pi, but that one is little-endian).

There's a built-in tutorial in it, but you can also have a look at this

https://gist.github.com/hzulla/cf9165ba15342e5df9b3

for a quick start. Also, there's quite a lot of stuff on Youtube about it.

Would love to hear from you. Does it work? Does a more complicated music
code (like "Tilburg 2" in the examples section) work with it?

Thanks for testing,

Hanno
