there is likely another problem with dssi-vst at the moment. Due to
some low level bug dssi-vst currently does not work under a 64-bit
system.
See the discussion here:

As far as I know this is still the case so I think Carla or Airwave is
your best bet.
Thanks all for the advice.
I'm not running KXStudio -- vanilla Ubuntu here, with some low latency tweaks. My
lecture is on Tuesday -- highly unlikely that I would install a whole new distro and
reconfigure all the software I need at this point. Also, after losing literally 7-8 hours
yesterday to buggy, poorly-featured or un-compilable packages, I'm not exactly eager
to try to build Qtractor or Carla from sources.
Unless somebody can provide "for dummies" instructions with a, say, 90-95%
chance of success. I know that's unrealistic... just saying, yesterday, I went through
three or four cycles of build... build failed... Google... install more packages... build
failed again... Google... repeat... until the Google results turned up nothing useful and
I still didn't have a working build. To protect my own sanity, at this point I would
rather boot into Windows (and that is saying a LOT).
I have a related question, which really belongs in another thread. Shortly.
