sakrecoer[b]thanka @freenode_OvenWerks:matrix.org ! i think i tried all options in there. nifty feature, but it didn't solve my issue.08:28
sakrecoer[b]thanks*08:28
sakrecoer[b]on a fresh mind looking back there's one thing i did NOT try: reboot haha08:29
sakrecoer[b]fingers crossed my computer is in a better place today08:29
sakrecoer[b]at this point i'm pretty sure LSP is the problem09:50
sakrecoer[b]would be nice if someone else could try reproduce it on 20.10 fresh install...09:51
sakrecoer[b]works fine with anything else. But as soon as multisampler is in the mix, the midi tracks won't play midi consistently09:53
rghOh. Does the problem happen in another daw/host09:53
rghTry carla09:53
sakrecoer[b]good call! i'll see what happens in qtractor09:53
rghIt has a nifty simple midi step sequencer plugin built in09:54
sakrecoer[b]oh.. really?09:54
rghI think so.09:54
sakrecoer[b]where?09:54
rghMaybe install X42 plugins?09:55
rghI'm talking about carla, not qtractor ofc09:56
sakrecoer[b]yes... carla...09:57
sakrecoer[b]but... i can't find any midi step squencer in there09:57
sakrecoer[b]installing x42 sounds like an option, but it's not really a solution here. I want to use it in ardour. And the more i install things, the harder it will be to locate the error...09:58
sakrecoer[b]i'm thinking about updateing lsp instead.. but not sure how to proceeed.09:59
sakrecoer[b]it seems have a lot of locations with aliases pointing here and there...09:59
sakrecoer[b](as it is installed now)10:00
rghWow10:01
rghJust use your package manager10:01
sakrecoer[b]my package manager doesn't seems to be 3 versions behind upstream10:01
sakrecoer[b]i mean..10:02
sakrecoer[b]it seems to be 3 version behind10:02
sakrecoer[b]doens't seem to be up to date10:02
rghIf you install plugins manually (no deb) install everything in ~/.lv210:03
rghDon't many copy anything to your system directories10:03
sakrecoer[b]i should probably remove the debian packages first, right?10:04
rghWhen upgrading just overwrite existing files (in that home dir)10:04
rghyup10:04
rghAlthough kx has just updated lsp and you can grab the plugin from their website10:05
rghDid you test in qtractor already?10:05
rghBefore randomly upgrading stuff?10:05
sakrecoer[b]no, i'll do that first10:05
rghOkidoki10:05
sakrecoer[b]uff... haha! right... qtractor... How does this beast's midi work again?10:06
rghIt's not that different from ardour10:06
rghJust create a midi track, and right click on things10:07
sakrecoer[b]oh... well, that was a quick crash10:08
sakrecoer[b]seems multisampler simply crashes tractor10:09
rghOh joy10:11
rghhttps://x42-plugins.com/x42/x42-stepseq-8x810:13
rghI though this plugin came with carla.10:13
rghX42 is rgareus, which is the dev of ardour. I think you are pretty safe installing these excellent plugins.10:14
sakrecoer[b]i have a couple of x42 thingies, but they are all audio plugins not midi10:14
sakrecoer[b]at least, availble in carla10:14
sakrecoer[b]an autotune \o/ i can be pop star, once i figure out how to make a frigging drum pattern10:15
sakrecoer[b]i really don't want to have 23 different apps to start for this lol10:15
sakrecoer[b]but eventually i might just surrender to that reality10:16
rghOh!10:17
rghNo wait. That's doesn't work because I have a newer version of ardour10:18
rghI was gonna ask you for a project file10:18
sakrecoer[b]what doesn't work?10:22
sakrecoer[b]ah...10:22
sakrecoer[b]right...10:22
sakrecoer[b]how do i make qtractor play=10:22
sakrecoer[b]?10:23
sakrecoer[b]lol10:23
sakrecoer[b]oh boy...10:27
sakrecoer[b]my head is about implode10:27
sakrecoer[b]ah, it was set to slave lol!10:29
sakrecoer[b] ye ok. lsp makes qtractor crash...10:30
sakrecoer[b]other synths are fine though10:30
rghMmmm now it sounds suspiciously like an lsp error10:31
rghUninstall with package manager10:32
rghGet new plugins from lsp-plug.in10:32
sakrecoer[b]well... the plot thickens...10:33
rghNote, you can't download a single plugin, it's a bundle with all plugins10:33
sakrecoer[b]i somehow managed to have qtractor runing with multisampler.10:33
sakrecoer[b]and i can play several notes at the same time without problem10:33
rghNaaannnniiiii?10:33
sakrecoer[b]well.. there it died again lol10:34
rghOk. Try demo ardour10:34
rghYou can safely install and remove it from your system besides your package managers ardour10:35
rghThe demo installs in /opt10:35
sakrecoer[b]thanks! i will!10:36
sakrecoer[b]But now i have to try get some work done :'(10:36
sakrecoer[b]or rather some other work done10:36
* rgh uploaded an image: UotUE_bsZvey6bCct6EH8J--nvY.gif (158KiB) < https://matrix.org/_matrix/media/r0/download/matrix.org/ByuvKuuuZoMfGOVjuphSPCQb/UotUE_bsZvey6bCct6EH8J--nvY.gif >10:36
rghThe emperor wants it10:36
sakrecoer[b]you the best rgh thank you so much for lending me your eyes10:37
rghYw10:38
sakrecoer[b]ok i lied (don't tell my boss) and 20 minutes later i have a decent kit of lofi hiphop drums in geonkick. I think i'm gonna just stick with this for a while :D10:58
sakrecoer[b]wait? the projects made with ardour availble in ubuntu studio 20.04 are not compatible with the version in 20.10?11:15
sakrecoer[b]nah...11:29
sakrecoer[b]it's just one project that's gone berzek, but probably i did something weird...11:29
sakrecoer[b]oh... history is saved \o/11:32
sakrecoer[b]i was about to die a little bit inside. I've got a record deal for this thing :')11:33
rghOvenWerks: gonna reinstall. this install was first a lubuntu, then added xubuntu , removed lubuntu stuff12:13
rgh10/10 I borked something12:13
rghI kinda forgot how I did this, until I plugged in the usb stick and it said "Lubuntu 20.10" lol12:13
rghOvenWerks: everything works now14:23
sakrecoer[b]just saw this in the ardour logs: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/kMjrX5DdV9/14:53
sakrecoer[b]it seems to be blacklisting a few lsp things14:53
sakrecoer[b]it's listing a few paths that i have explicitly removed...14:55
sakrecoer[b]and why is it blacklisting dexed :'(14:55
sakrecoer[b]oh... a blacklist clear button!14:55
sakrecoer[b]ardour added them back after a scan...14:56
sakrecoer[b]ook... hehe vst3 support is from 6.5 got it :D15:23
sakrecoer[b]i guess i am going to try my luck with backports15:30
sakrecoer[b]HOLY CANELONI!!!! :tada:15:39
sakrecoer[b]even dat darn multisample iz happy robot now :')15:40
sakrecoer[b]this is great! everything just funkzioniert!!! ๐Ÿ‘จโ€๐ŸŽค๐Ÿคน๐Ÿค–๐Ÿ’ƒ18:33

KrausHow would one load a Carla profile upon login? Alternatively, how can I default Carla to load with a .carxp? In Session and Startup, carla %u works to load the program, but how to get the .carxp file to load, would I have to add an option in the command?20:11
KrausNevermind! Duh! $ carla ~/carla-profile_01.carxp20:14
* Kraus 's mind expands.20:14
KrausDamn. "Failed to load project. Engine is not initialized."20:22
OvenWerksKraus: whatever script you are using to launch at session start, add a sleep 15 or so. maybe start with sleep 30 and go down till it works. Have to make sure jack is set to start on session start of course20:42
OvenWerksnext version of studio-controls can run a post start script which would be better.20:43
* OvenWerks thinks he might move the script run till after all the bridges are set up on second thought20:44
KrausOvenWerks: That would be nifty! Of course, that means it would be part of 20.10 yeah?20:47
KrausOvenWerks: Are you sure it's called sleep? All the websearch results for sleep are talking about sleep commands to make the whole computer sleep.20:48
KrausOh! `sleep NUMBER[SUFFIX]`20:49
KrausLet's try sleep 520:50
wonkoOvenWerks: That sounds lovely. I Even with a session manager I still have a pile of work to do to get a running system after logging in.21:24
KrausI figured it out btw!21:36
Kraus#!/bin/sh21:36
Krausjack_wait -w && sleep 2 && carla -n ~/carla-profile_01.carxp; bash21:36
KrausVoila!21:36
