KrillBatHi01:32
KrillBatI'm using bitwig and am trying to access all of the plugins that come with ubuntu studio01:32
KrillBatBut I cannot figure out which folder I'm supposed to tell bitwig to look in for them01:33
KrillBatAny suggestions?01:33
OvenWerksKrillBat: What kind of plugins are they?02:20
OvenWerksKrillBat: I found /usr/lib/lv2/ , /usr/lib/ladspa/ , /usr/local/lib/vst02:24
OvenWerksKrillBat: I would guess that the lxvst are in /usr/local/lib/ because I build them rather than installing a package.02:25
OvenWerksKrillBat: LV2s are the best plugins to use if the host supports them.02:25
OvenWerksI do not know what bitwig supports.02:26
OvenWerksI tried it when I had Studio 14.04, but I have not tried it since I installed 16.04 so I don't have it to try.02:27
KrillBatHey OvenWerks02:27
* OvenWerks helps develop Ardour so he is somewhat biased :)02:28
OvenWerkshello.02:28
KrillBatAh I see lol02:28
KrillBatWhen I had 14.04 it actually happened automatically02:28
KrillBatI opened bitwig after I installed it and they were just there02:28
KrillBatBut this time that wasn't the case02:28
KrillBatI guess it should be VST02:29
OvenWerksThe settings/preferences should tell you where they are looking02:29
KrillBator lxvst02:29
OvenWerksvst are the worst because there is no standard place to put them.02:29
OvenWerksI thought they used some lapspa as well.02:30
OvenWerks*ladspa02:32
KrillBatIt says 'indexing /usr/lib/02:35
KrillBatThat seems promising02:35
KrillBatoh nvm02:36
OvenWerksKrillBat: do you know the name of any of the plugins? you might try using catfish to search on that name from the /usr folder02:42
OvenWerksThat was how I found the vst folder...02:43

stochastixIm installing ubuntustudio right now to help guide a friend who is new to Linux, but I was wondering, what is the most current version of Blender that I can instal, even if i have to enable another repo?15:54
sakrecoerstochastix: you don't need to add a repo, but you could of course... i personaly use the one dsitributed on http://blender.org15:57
sakrecoerchose the 32 or 64 bit accroding to the machine, un pack the folder in your home, and then double click the "blender" executable in there15:58
sakrecoerif you are installing 16.04, i believe the version bundled is 2.76b15:59
sakrecoerthe current version is 2.77a if i'm not mistaken15:59
sakrecoer2.77a runs fine on 16.0415:59
sakrecoerif you want to set 2.77a as default when opening a file from the filemanager, right click on a -blend file, and chose "Open with another application"16:01
stochastixhmm, Ill have to call him up, he said something like version 2.6 something, maybe he meant 2.7.616:01
sakrecoerthe unflod "Use a custom command" brose to the blender exectuable and select it, then check the box "Use as default for this kindof file"16:02
sakrecoerwell.. if he is using 14.04 it might be 2.6 something...16:02
stochastixHe didnt like the idea of it just being in a download folder, and wanted it to be "installed" sort of :)16:02
sakrecoerthen it will require a ppa...16:02
sakrecoeri don't know which one to recomend...16:02
sakrecoerhowever, you don't need to run it from your download folder..16:03
sakrecoeri run it from my ~/16:03
stochastixI know, he could put it anywhere.16:03
sakrecoeryes :)16:03
stochastixI noticed blender comes with the libraries it needs in the tar file16:03
sakrecoerexactly16:04
stochastixdoes the binary need to stay in the directory above the libraries?16:04
sakrecoerthe only con i have noticed of using the blender.org bundle, is that you have to manualy tell your system to open -blend file with it...16:04
sakrecoeryou don't want to touch what is inside the bledner folder... the blender folder can be anywhere...16:05
stochastixsakrecoer: you probably could change the settings for filetypes and point it to your binary right?16:05
sakrecoerstochastix: although, i'm not sure i understand your question16:05
sakrecoerexactly16:05
stochastixsakrecoer: Im just saying, you want to leave the blender binary in the folder with the rest of the stuff.16:05
stochastixYou wouldnt want to just throw it in /usr/bin :)16:05
sakrecoeryes, other wise it breaks16:05
stochastixright16:06
sakrecoerno..16:06
sakrecoeranother con would be that... to redner something in background with cli, you need to invoke blender from its folder.16:06
sakrecoerunless you do some changes, that i don't know how to do lol16:07
sakrecoer(i'm sure there is an easy way)16:07
sakrecoerbut if you are never render from the terminal, its not a problem (minor problem if you do render from terminal anyway)16:08
sakrecoerstochastix: i have to run... best of luck! :) come back anytime if you need more help, or stick arround maybe someone else with better skills will reach out :)16:08
sakrecoero/16:08
sakrecoer(better skill than me that is)16:09
stochastixsakrecoer: Thanks, appreciate it. I have it installed now so ill poke around at it.16:14
sirriffsalotzequence, z, what's up!18:07
zequencesirriffsalot: Hi. So, you are in Sweden? Where? I live in Gothenburg.18:33
sirriffsalotzequence, Awesome :) Not too far away, in a place called Biskops Arnö, do you know it?18:34
zequencesirriffsalot: Yes, I know it. I know someone who studied there. What is it that you are studying there?18:37
sirriffsalotzequence, songwriting-course kinda. It's a year-long folkehøgskole, I'm guessing you know what that is in swedish :P18:38
zequenceIf you ever come by Gothenburg, let me know.18:38
sirriffsalotzequence, hell yeah I will! Also if you're ever near uppsala or stockholm, swing by here and visit :D This place is pretty neat18:38
zequenceI don't know the education itself, but it seemed like a nice place to focus on something for a year.18:39
sirriffsalotWell, we'll see how they "teach the unteachable", the best a teacher can do in my mind is to reinforce certain fall-back techniques and ideas, but more importantly instill wonder and enthusiasm for whatever they're teaching18:40
ThinkpadurGöteborg?18:40
Thinkpadurcome on.18:40
sirriffsalotWhat I'm really hoping to get out of this place is some good overall wholesome songwriting skill (as I have none), and perhaps some real good bandmembers18:41
sirriffsalotWorking with swedes is so much fun..  love the language.. and they love norwegian for some odd reason18:41
Thinkpadurbut Norwegians are in love only with the Muslims.18:42
Thinkpadurcoz those are the only ones they accept open minded. :)18:42
sirriffsalotThinkpadur, way to slip into the convo by potentially trodding on a lot of toes, haha18:43
Thinkpadursirriffsalot: some time ago in the Danish universities (and not only) they were est. Hate-Norway-clubs ... for a reason.18:45
sirriffsalotzequence, anyway, this place is rad. Do come by if you're passing through18:52
sirriffsalotTheir studio isn't that impressive though, but it's a start..18:52
zequencesirriffsalot: I'm sure it will be good for you. You have good drive, and that is the most important thing.19:19

sirriffsalotOnly got a bike as transportation so far :P20:14
sakrecoersirriffsalot: tell me something in sweden that isn't far away? :D Probably Malmö is the onl place close to everything :D20:15
sirriffsalotsakrecoer, hehe, I suppose20:16
sirriffsalotI might try biking all the way to Uppsala one day if the weather is nice20:16
sakrecoersirriffsalot: good idea!20:17
