Maybe there are system lib/app mis-matches, as mint 17 is good, but old.
If you have an external drive for test setups, installing a current release of Mint
could be a more stable use of the Kx repos.
I have a Mint 18 that is very stable, although aging fast

My great-grandparents had a career selling huge blocks of ice lovingly sawed from the winter lakes freeze, stored in barns insulated with sawdust and hay. I heard you didn't want to arm-wrestle with the staff :shock: Welcome to the forum, grab Yoshimi/zynaddsubfx, hydrogen, rakarrack, guitarix, calf...

For a torture test, I opened linux reaper, and chained your linux vsts on an audio track with a UNO synth playing, then opened both standalones routed to the same synth, then started the windows reaper in wine, loaded a plugin synth (Maxsynths Crisalys) and chained both windows version reverbs to th...

edit; checked Emissary working also in Mint 18, same hardware as previous post ---------------------------------------------------- https://www.stltones.com/products/stl-ignite-emissary-plug-in-bundle There is also a new Ignite Amps Emissary bundle, with the new Emissary V2 (a spin-the-wheel for dis...

Emissary is split, having Clean and Lead channels, turn all knobs, and the Channel switch, to the left. Bring the Clean Master knob up to 75% then, in this order, bring up the gain, mids, treble, and bass to 60%, and adjust to taste Now turn all those knobs down, flip the Channel switch to Lead, bri...

aplay -l arecord -l these commands list detected audio input and recording hardware, and the system name(s) will be displayed within brackets, like [M Audio Audiophile 24/96] With your device connected, boot, launch qjackctl, but do not start the engine itself. Click the setup button, click the 'Adv...

Start qjackctl, and the standalone guitarix (not a plugin version) With audio active on your soundcard line-in, or recognized usb input, you want these connections in the qjackctl Audio tab: system on the bottom left connected to gx_head_amp upper right gx_head_amp on the upper left to gx_head_fx on...

Hello, Now I have the situation where I get an xrun exactly every exactly 50 seconds, even with wifi disabled. What could the cause be? Is there a way to diagnose what could be interfering at such regular intervals? could be something poling for a cd/dvd, could be power-management, could be a tempe...

I of course will disagree completely with that, based on experience. Fair enough, and you certainly make it work (very) well. Would you really recommend that to a new Linux user though? I think our community tends to forget how alien this world is to musicians who are not used to it The whole realm...

If you want your hard work, talents, and the benefits of your software
to go largely un-noticed, providing only LV2 plugin versions is the way forward.

This is a MUX modular view screenshot, (posted at kvr) the modular view is optional from the MUX gui. The shots above appear to be shots of Synplant in Bitwig.

I copy and label good .wine folders to a couple different backup drives, as they hold reg info and install choices that take time to replicate. My synaptic is set to store downloaded .deb files in the cache folder, also backed up, so I have older wine-staging versions and apps should they be needed....

I've read lots of good comments about MUX Modular from experienced users, so took part of the holiday to try it out in Mint 18, generic kernel, in the latest wine-staging. And what a great instrument it is. Must be one of the easiest to use and most flexible 'deep' synths around, as others have ment...
