| OvenWerks | re: backporting to 14.04... I can't think of anything I would do that with (jackd maybe). I would rather take the line: finish things started with 14.04 with 14.04 as is, but start new projects with 16.06 please. | 15:38 |
|---|---|---|
| OvenWerks | The list of known things not right in 14.04 (off the top of my head): | 15:38 |
| OvenWerks | Calf plugins (there is at least one bug that can destroy speakers) | 15:39 |
| OvenWerks | EQ10Q plugins, the GUI was broken | 15:40 |
| OvenWerks | jackd2 | 15:41 |
| OvenWerks | Ardour has 1000s of bug fixes since then | 15:41 |
| OvenWerks | qjackctl has a new gui that is much more newby friendly as it hides parameters that can get new people in trouble (system not working) | 15:43 |
| OvenWerks | zynaddsubfx should be added to 16.10 for sure, even in it's present state, it is a better plugin than yoshimi as it is properly set up to have more than one instance running at a time. | 15:46 |
| OvenWerks | By 16.10 the new version might be out too. | 15:46 |
| OvenWerks | Most of the things for 14.04 if we were going to do backports... should have been done a year ago. If 14.04 has gotten along with out them so far, no need to start now. I would suggest put that energy into 16.04. The testing will be easier with people here (hopfully) running 16.04 day by day. Testing 14.04 backports will not get done well, just a quick opens,runs does not show any breakage deeper in. | 15:51 |
| zequence | OvenWerks: Our users are not used to backports, since they aren't getting any | 16:36 |
| zequence | but, it is actually something you can choose | 16:36 |
| zequence | It would be good for us to educate our users about that | 16:36 |
| zequence | So, that they don't update to backports by mistake, if they were not willing to do that | 16:36 |
| trebmuh | OvenWerks, reading at one of your email on a US ML, you might be able to +1 this : https://github.com/calf-studio-gear/calf/issues/22 | 19:49 |
