My french is not that great anymore but
it looks like turning off the "-Werror" option in the
makefile might get you further.

I answer to my own question.
You can audio output to an smp file and then convert into the audio format you want.
It's really the drum app I was looking for.

I've just downloaded Trommler 3.4 and tried it.
I like it, it's easy to use and well designed.
Is there any way to output sound to a file instead of /dev/dsp ?
Sorry to ask this here but I haven't found a FAQ.
The README file says it's possible but I can't find out howto.
Excellent - just what I was looking for.
I needed an easy to use, simple programmable drum machine - mainly for use when practicing guitar and bass. Trommler gives me everything I need at this stage to build song patterns - Its a damn sight more reliable than the drummer in the band I used to play in!
