[linux-audio-user] [ANN] fst-1.8 (give those vsts a lashing)

[torbenh at gmx.de]

hi all...

this is fst-1.8.
loads vst instruments... and makes them a jack client.


you need to have lash installed to build it.

download is at:

*** IMPORTANT ***

there seems to be a "BUG" in wine, which prevents simultaneous startup
of fst instances. (this happens on lash project restore)

to circumvent this you need to have a persistent wineserver running.
so just start "wineserver -p" before reloading a lash project.

i hope to be able to fine a better workaround soon. So expect this in 
fst-1.8.1 which will also have complete vst state restore.
currently only the parameters are restored. But this is a good start.

please report back on wine version usage...

and yes... many vsts NEED a lashing ;)
