maybe this project can be more compatible 😄

Thanks for filing this issue - unfortunately I haven't been working with this code for a while, so there'll be a few things that don't work, in particular on non-linux platforms.

Out of interest, do you have either the portmidi or jack headers installed? As the dependencies are on the C/C++ libraries providing these files,, so I'm not sure if there's a good way to pull those in with go's dependency management?

If it helps, neither of those sections (midi / jack output) are required for the rest of the code to work, so it's possible to use, just not with 'go get' automatically. I don't know a good way to have optional compilation with the go builder though.

@padster No, I don't have jack installed.
Maybe you can start up a new project to make this fit for jack . and the jack project have dependency of go-sound. you just do the basic things at go-sound

To install required libs on macOS:

brew install jack pulseaudio portmidi

Builds should work fine after this.
