I doubke-checked and it is indeed the right version. I even did an update + dist-upgrade but no carla updates were available.
I tried to refresh the plugin list in carla (who knows ?). Still the same issue.
I tried again to load UI with calf-filterclavier 4 times and here is the terminal output :

Code: Select all

Unknown OSC address: /dssi//usr/lib/dssi/calf.so/filterclavier/sample_rate
QProcess::start: Process is already running
QProcess::start: Process is already running
QProcess::start: Process is already running
Anything else I could try ?

It's just that Simple Sampler. Other things work with GUI when they have them. The button for GUI for the sampler looks clickable, unlike non-GUI stuff. And the GUI is necessary to work it.

It's the same for both. They function within Rosegarden though. I'll try the reinstall.
Thanks

About the weird DSSI GUI regression I'm having, I just tried again with Carla 1:0.5.0~beta1+git20120927-0~precise1, but sadly it still not working.

For example with monosynth :

LV2 - the GUI shows up with no issue

Code: Select all

CALF DEBUG: instance 0xcd4100 data 0x3b3f790
CALF DEBUG: calf 0x7f251bffb8c0 cpi 0x7f251b63b220
Waiting for the GUI to open

Waiting for the GUI to open
hostname 0.0.0.0 port 37649
extgui_extension http://kxstudio.sf.net/ns/lv2ext/programs#UIInterface
DSSI - nothing shows up and it keeps saying the contrary

Code: Select all

Unknown OSC address: /dssi//usr/lib/dssi/calf.so/monosynth/sample_rate
QProcess::start: Process is already running
QProcess::start: Process is already running

No idea what I could try to help you :roll:

no luck on reinstall. You are saying it works on your end? I'm using the KXStudio install… :?

Both simple mono-sampler and monosynth DSSI UI's working here: 1:0.5.0~beta1+git20121003-0~precise2.
But Qtractor UI is not... no message in terminal. :?:

Tada ! :D
I tried again with carla 1:0.5.0~beta1+git20121003-0~precise2, and now I can open every DSSI plugin GUI I have tried. I don't know what you did but you did it well ! 8)
Thanx !

ok, thanks for the confirmation.
but I wonder: does this happen with the stereo-sampler too? (the same plugin has a stereo version)

please run this command and re-try: (perhaps the binary got corrupted somehow?)

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install dssi-example-plugins --reinstall
Hi falktx,
this is just a "me-too" contribution on wolftune's missing-gui issue. I miss Simple Stereo-Sampler's GUI under carla, its parameter view does show up though.
My setup is linux mint 13 maya cinnamon, kxstudio 0.5.0~beta1+git20121004-0~precise1, kernel 3.2.0-23-lowlatency #31-Ubuntu SMP, 64bit, core I7 quad.
Starting carla in a terminal, adding Simple Stereo Sampler plugin and pushing its "show external plugin's GUI" button tells this:

Code: Select all

robert@CENDRINE ~ $ carla
trivial_sampler_qt_gui starting...
Warning: unhandled OSC message in GUI:
arg 0: type 'f': 
(path is </Carla/0/sample_rate>)
Pushing the "show external plugin's GUI" button again results in "QProcess::start: Process is already running", which is right, there really exists a process in background:
/usr/lib/dssi/trivial_sampler/trivial_sampler_qt osc.udp://CENDRINE:19671/Carla/0 /usr/lib/dssi/trivial_sampler.so stereo_sampler Simple Stereo Sampler (GUI)
but this GUI process remains invisible.
As above carla message concerns sample_rate, I reconfigured jack from 48000 to 44100, but without effort.
I then tried following, which led to successfully showing up stereo sampler GUI:

Code: Select all

robert@CENDRINE ~ $ jack-dssi-host trivial_sampler.so

jack-dssi-host: OSC URL is:
osc.udp://CENDRINE:10767/dssi/trivial_sampler/stereo_sampler/chan00

host: Ready
trivial_sampler_qt_gui starting...
Warning: unhandled OSC message in GUI:
arg 0: type 'i': 
arg 1: type 'i': 
(path is </dssi/trivial_sampler/stereo_sampler/chan00/program>)
I then was able to load some wav file with the sampler's GUI, playing the sound via its test button ran OK.

Hope this can help to track the issue. If more info is needed, please drop me a note.
Thanks BTW for this nice work, kxstudio feels quite comfortable with linux mint 13 here, makes quite big appetite on sound experimenting :D
BYE & good night

Maybe a bit OT but I'm looking at a Cadence screenshot and I notice you can configure the clocksource. What does changing the clocksource actually do?

Ok, thanks. I also found this too though: http://lists.linuxaudio.org/pipermail/l ... 69902.html
So I really wonder if it affects anything actually. This is all quite arcane stuff, just like snd-hrtimer. One says it does improve MIDI timing (as in less jitter) and others say its design is flawed causing jitter.

hm? can you be more specific please? what do you mean "midi flow"?
why standalone? standalones are not loadable plugins. :?
I have no idea what ... heh ? :? :?
Sorry for not being accurate. Let's say I load Cadence, then Claudia and I try to play with Yoshimi, or any other soft synth.
When I send a midi note, all synths are responding randomly, sometimes not at all.
It looks like something is slowing or altering the reception of midi by the synths.

But I'll make more test to give you more details. I know you're not a magician, just a wizard... :D
