caodepalhaHi everyone. I've just downloaded the calf plugin pack. can anyone please help me installing it?15:58
holsteincaodepalha: did you apt-get them?16:18
holsteincaodepalha: sudo apt-get install calf-plugins16:18
holstein!info calf-plugins16:18
ubottucalf-plugins (source: calf): pack of audio plugins - effects and instruments. In component universe, is extra. Version 0.0.19-1ubuntu1 (raring), package size 15589 kB, installed size 27350 kB16:18
caodepalhai got them from sourceforge16:19
holsteincaodepalha: then, sourceforge or the content creator will tell you how to install them16:19
holsteincaodepalha: otherwise, use the package in the repos.. sudo apt-get install calf-plugins16:19
holsteincaodepalha: if you find you need a different/newer version, we can talk about what that might look like..16:19
caodepalhaI still didn't figure out how to install tar.gz archives16:19
holsteincaodepalha: install them from the repos.. *not* from the tar.gz16:20
holsteincaodepalha: open a terminal.. type... "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install calf-plugins"16:20
holsteincaodepalha: or, use the package manager of your choice to search for and install calf-plugins16:21
caodepalhai got this:16:22
caodepalha     This APT has Super Cow Powers.16:22
caodepalhaE: Could not open lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (13: Permission denied)16:22
caodepalhaE: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), are you root?16:22
caodepalhacaodepalha@caodepalha:~/Desktop/calf-0.0.19$16:22
holsteincaodepalha: close *everything*16:32
holsteincaodepalha: open *just* a terminal and run..16:32
holsteinsudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install calf-plugins16:33
caodepalhait say calf-plugins is already the newest version16:35
caodepalhasays*16:35
holsteincaodepalha: then, they are installed16:39
holsteincaodepalha: you open something that supports the plugins, and they will be there16:39
holsteincaodepalha: they dont do much on their own..16:39
caodepalhaI know. the thing is i see the plugins working on ardour and i've been through ardour and cant find them anywhere.  sorry i said the name wrong. its the calf studio gear16:41
holsteincaodepalha: then, the are insatlled, and working.. if you see them in ardour16:41
holsteincaodepalha: if you are using something else, then maybe that something else doesnt support the plugins16:42
holsteincaodepalha: you have them installed. the question to ask is "how do i make the unmentioned application support the installed calf plugins"16:42
caodepalhaI meant I cant16:42
holsteinone answer for us is always, assuming jack support, you route thorugh jack16:43
holsteincaodepalha: if you cant, you cant16:43
holsteincaodepalha: then, theres nothing to talk about16:43
holsteincaodepalha: if both things support JACK, which we know we can find a host for the plugins in jack, then you can use JACK16:43
caodepalhaok. but i guess they are not in the system. the pack doesnt come by default with ubuntu. dont i need to install it or compile?16:44
caodepalhai managed to do it with bristol. i just cant with calf studio gear somehow16:45
holsteincaodepalha: if you see them in ardour, the *are* in the system16:46
holsteincaodepalha: if the "system" says to you "they are already installed", then they are already installed16:46
holsteincaodepalha: do you see them in ardour?16:46
caodepalhain ardour i dont see a calf plugin pack. instead i have alot of calf plugins but they layout is nothing like the layout of the calf studio gear plugins16:50
holsteincaodepalha: those *are* the plugins16:50
caodepalhatheir layout*16:50
caodepalhathey look nothing like the plugins..16:51
holsteincaodepalha: they may not be the plugins you are trying to use16:51
caodepalhaok let me check16:51
caodepalhaok16:53
caodepalhai feel a "bit" dumb now16:53
holsteincaodepalha: http://sourceforge.net/projects/calf/files/ is likely what you are talking about16:53
