Hi everyone<br>
<br>
I'd really like to be able to finally use the new and shiny
ZynAddSubFX in Qtractor (latest from source).<br>
<br>
I tried the "zynaddsubfx_dssi" but even ghostess could not start it:<br>
<br>
⚡ ghostess
/usr/lib/dssi/libzynaddsubfx_dssi.so
<br>
ghostess: ghostess starting...<br>
ghostess: failed to load plugin library
/usr/lib/dssi/libzynaddsubfx_dssi.so<br>
<br>
Then I build the full monty using <a
href="https://sourceforge.net/projects/zynaddsubfx/files/latest/download?source=files">the
latest source tar.gz on SF</a>, because I could not get <a
href="https://sourceforge.net/p/zynaddsubfx/code/ci/master/tree/">the
git master branch</a> to compile (I'm using Ubuntu 14.04 with
3.13.0-36-generic).<br>
<br>
Now ghostess does load something<br>
<br>
⚡ ghostess ~/src/zynaddsubfx-2.4.4/build/src/libzynaddsubfx_dssi.so<br>
ghostess: ghostess starting...<br>
ghostess: instance 0 on channel 0, plugin 0 is
'libzynaddsubfx_dssi/ZASF/inst00'<br>
ghostess: listening using ALSA MIDI<br>
ghostess ready<br>
<br>
I get a small window with just a "UI" button ; when clicked, it
reveals a window with a "Send test note" that works! :) Just a sine
wave "a" but still.<br>
There are "bank" & "program" menus, but they don't seem to work.<br>
In Qtractor, I get basically the same thing, without the test sound
:/<br>
<br>
It seems to be lacking both UI definitions and instruments.<br>
<br>
<br>
I also tried building Carla and puttin bin/carla.lv2 in my lv2 dir,
carla showed up in qtractor LV2 tab but failed to load with<br>

How can I link all this together? Wow, I'm on it since early this
morning!? Thanks to anyone who's listening.<br>

<br>
PS - I tried the "zynadd" package (can't find the sources/repo) w/o
any luck<br>
PPS - WAIT! I missed the " ZynAddSubFX" entry in the LV2 list! This
is from Carla (I tested it by trying to remove the carla.lv2 dir) ;
It does load (and a song save / qtractor restart yeld no error) only
I can't neither load a new instrument (I cloned <a
href="https://sourceforge.net/p/zynaddsubfx/instruments/ci/master/tree/">the
instrument repo</a> and selected the dir as the default) nor seem
to affect the sine sound playing (I turn the knobs, say ADSR in <b>edit
instrument</b> and nothing changes)) so now I don't have ZASF but
can see it from where I am :) Thank you for your patience.<br>
