You're welcome!

Greetings,

Built this morning from latest git sources with no troubles, a few tests indicate everything working well, as usual.

Thanks for the excellent update, the Calf plugins are a go-to set when I need effects. Great sound and UIs.

Best regards,

Dave Phillips

Thanks a bunch, Dave! Since we were a bit cocky this time not having pre-releases for testing beforehand it's good to hear that the published version builds and works flawlessly on different systems.

damn it still crashes Ardour on Arch.
Calf use to be my go to also but haven't used for about a year because of the crashes.
I just uninstalled any old version and reinstalled the latest from git and it still crashes as I load a plugin.

EDIT: just tried it in Mixbus 32C and it loads without issue. I'm also using the latest Ardour 5.12.

Thanks a lot for trying it out! As mentioned in the other thread - if you find the time to submit a backtrace from gdb it would be very helpful. Is there any shared object file on your system named calf.so other than the freshly installed one? Asking because this is still a known problem with LMMS installed on the same system. FalkTX fortunately found a workaround for KXStudio but that's Debian package management. Problem is that LMMS installs legacy (LADSPA) versions of Calf which make Ardour crash while adding a Calf plugin.

hmm, LMMS maybe the issue then but I have no calf.so in my ladspa dir. I will try to do a gdb.

EDIT: found the calf.so in lmms dir. removed it and now LMMS still works and Ardour does now also.

Thanx Markus!

*phew* Glad you found it.
