DX7-Supercollider – S2 / Bookworm Fix

Revision 1.1 / V6

Fixed an exit bug specific to the Organelle S2 / Bookworm port.

Previously, after leaving the DX7-Supercollider patch, SuperCollider could remain running in the background and keep control of the audio system. The next patch would load correctly but produce no sound until the Organelle was rebooted.

This revision fixes the process cleanup so the patch now exits properly and other patches can be loaded immediately with working audio.

To leave the DX7-Supercollider patch:
Press and hold the SELECTOR encoder until the patch menu appears, then select another patch.

DX7-Supercollider – Organelle S2 / Bookworm Compatibility Fix

This compatibility port makes the original DX7-Supercollider patch work on the Critter & Guitari Organelle S2 running OS 4.4 / Raspbian Bookworm, where the original release does not run correctly.

The original patch was designed for an older Organelle software environment. This version preserves the original DX7 synthesizer, presets and interface while updating the system integration for the S2.

Main fixes:

* Updated Organelle S2 system paths
* Bookworm-compatible JACK 1.9.21 installation
* SuperCollider 3.13 compatibility
* Fix for the Organelle read-only filesystem
* Correct loading of the FM7 and Fverb2 extensions
* SuperCollider startup and environment fixes

Tested successfully on:
Critter & Guitari Organelle S2
Organelle OS 4.4
Raspbian GNU/Linux 12 (Bookworm), armhf
JACK 1.9.21
SuperCollider 3.13

Important: An Internet connection is required during the first installation. After installation, reboot the Organelle once before launching the patch.
