=== guiverc is now known as guiverc2 [08:28] thanka @freenode_OvenWerks:matrix.org ! i think i tried all options in there. nifty feature, but it didn't solve my issue. [08:28] thanks* [08:29] on a fresh mind looking back there's one thing i did NOT try: reboot haha [08:29] fingers crossed my computer is in a better place today [09:50] at this point i'm pretty sure LSP is the problem [09:51] would be nice if someone else could try reproduce it on 20.10 fresh install... [09:53] works fine with anything else. But as soon as multisampler is in the mix, the midi tracks won't play midi consistently [09:53] Oh. Does the problem happen in another daw/host [09:53] Try carla [09:53] good call! i'll see what happens in qtractor [09:54] It has a nifty simple midi step sequencer plugin built in [09:54] oh.. really? [09:54] I think so. [09:54] where? [09:55] Maybe install X42 plugins? [09:56] I'm talking about carla, not qtractor ofc [09:57] yes... carla... [09:57] but... i can't find any midi step squencer in there [09:58] 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... [09:59] i'm thinking about updateing lsp instead.. but not sure how to proceeed. [09:59] it seems have a lot of locations with aliases pointing here and there... [10:00] (as it is installed now) [10:01] Wow [10:01] Just use your package manager [10:01] my package manager doesn't seems to be 3 versions behind upstream [10:02] i mean.. [10:02] it seems to be 3 version behind [10:02] doens't seem to be up to date [10:03] If you install plugins manually (no deb) install everything in ~/.lv2 [10:03] Don't many copy anything to your system directories [10:04] i should probably remove the debian packages first, right? [10:04] When upgrading just overwrite existing files (in that home dir) [10:04] yup [10:05] Although kx has just updated lsp and you can grab the plugin from their website [10:05] Did you test in qtractor already? [10:05] Before randomly upgrading stuff? [10:05] no, i'll do that first [10:05] Okidoki [10:06] uff... haha! right... qtractor... How does this beast's midi work again? [10:06] It's not that different from ardour [10:07] Just create a midi track, and right click on things [10:08] oh... well, that was a quick crash [10:09] seems multisampler simply crashes tractor [10:11] Oh joy [10:13] https://x42-plugins.com/x42/x42-stepseq-8x8 [10:13] I though this plugin came with carla. [10:14] X42 is rgareus, which is the dev of ardour. I think you are pretty safe installing these excellent plugins. [10:14] i have a couple of x42 thingies, but they are all audio plugins not midi [10:14] at least, availble in carla [10:15] an autotune \o/ i can be pop star, once i figure out how to make a frigging drum pattern [10:15] i really don't want to have 23 different apps to start for this lol [10:16] but eventually i might just surrender to that reality [10:17] Oh! [10:18] No wait. That's doesn't work because I have a newer version of ardour [10:18] I was gonna ask you for a project file [10:22] what doesn't work? [10:22] ah... [10:22] right... [10:22] how do i make qtractor play= [10:23] ? [10:23] lol [10:27] oh boy... [10:27] my head is about implode [10:29] ah, it was set to slave lol! [10:30] ye ok. lsp makes qtractor crash... [10:30] other synths are fine though [10:31] Mmmm now it sounds suspiciously like an lsp error [10:32] Uninstall with package manager [10:32] Get new plugins from lsp-plug.in [10:33] well... the plot thickens... [10:33] Note, you can't download a single plugin, it's a bundle with all plugins [10:33] i somehow managed to have qtractor runing with multisampler. [10:33] and i can play several notes at the same time without problem [10:33] Naaannnniiiii? [10:34] well.. there it died again lol [10:34] Ok. Try demo ardour [10:35] You can safely install and remove it from your system besides your package managers ardour [10:35] The demo installs in /opt [10:36] thanks! i will! [10:36] But now i have to try get some work done :'( [10:36] or rather some other work done [10:36] * 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] The emperor wants it [10:37] you the best rgh thank you so much for lending me your eyes [10:38] Yw [10:58] 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 :D [11:15] wait? the projects made with ardour availble in ubuntu studio 20.04 are not compatible with the version in 20.10? [11:29] nah... [11:29] it's just one project that's gone berzek, but probably i did something weird... [11:32] oh... history is saved \o/ [11:33] i was about to die a little bit inside. I've got a record deal for this thing :') [12:13] OvenWerks: gonna reinstall. this install was first a lubuntu, then added xubuntu , removed lubuntu stuff [12:13] 10/10 I borked something [12:13] I kinda forgot how I did this, until I plugged in the usb stick and it said "Lubuntu 20.10" lol [14:23] OvenWerks: everything works now [14:53] just saw this in the ardour logs: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/kMjrX5DdV9/ [14:53] it seems to be blacklisting a few lsp things [14:55] it's listing a few paths that i have explicitly removed... [14:55] and why is it blacklisting dexed :'( [14:55] oh... a blacklist clear button! [14:56] ardour added them back after a scan... [15:23] ook... hehe vst3 support is from 6.5 got it :D [15:30] i guess i am going to try my luck with backports [15:39] HOLY CANELONI!!!! :tada: [15:40] even dat darn multisample iz happy robot now :') [18:33] this is great! everything just funkzioniert!!! 👨‍🎤🤹🤖💃 [18:35] new geonkick even previews sample in its browser and haz sexy UI besserung [18:41] * sakrecoer[b] uploaded a video: 4_5818844090875251680.mp4 (1090KiB) < https://matrix.org/_matrix/media/r0/download/basspistol.org/pKYrABeONdDOmnpBBNlUIovA/4_5818844090875251680.mp4 > [20:11] How 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? [20:14] Nevermind! Duh! $ carla ~/carla-profile_01.carxp [20:14] * Kraus 's mind expands. [20:22] Damn. "Failed to load project. Engine is not initialized." [20:42] Kraus: 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 course [20:43] next version of studio-controls can run a post start script which would be better. [20:44] * OvenWerks thinks he might move the script run till after all the bridges are set up on second thought [20:47] OvenWerks: That would be nifty! Of course, that means it would be part of 20.10 yeah? [20:48] OvenWerks: Are you sure it's called sleep? All the websearch results for sleep are talking about sleep commands to make the whole computer sleep. [20:49] Oh! `sleep NUMBER[SUFFIX]` [20:50] Let's try sleep 5 [21:24] OvenWerks: 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. [21:36] I figured it out btw! [21:36] #!/bin/sh [21:36] jack_wait -w && sleep 2 && carla -n ~/carla-profile_01.carxp; bash [21:36] Voila!
