I'd got an error on build. The 0.42 version ran OK here.

Re: Guitarix2 release version 0.42.1
you should configure with
all sources comes pre-build, so there is no need to re-build sources from faust level.
btw. the error seems to be related to rd.maxn(), last releases I use rd-mean(), but that only gives a vague level indicator. rd.maxn() is much better (and I use it before for may years, but, for some faust releases it leads to such a error you report).
Now, with recent faust it works again, so I decide to switch back to use it.
I need to think about to make faust use a non default option.
Code: Select all
--no-faust

Re: Guitarix2 release version 0.42.1
Nice!
Guitarix only gets better and better. Trying it out now. It´s off topic, but just out of curiosity, is it possible to build the JCM 800 tonestack plugin using the DK simulator? Tim Goetze/ David Yeh tonestacks once they are added to the signal chain( after the JCM800pre), they retain a lot of sustain. If you try just the JCM800pre+JCM800PowA it sounds a lot better and sustains longer. That being said, if it´s possible, I would love to try it and see if that makes a difference.
Thanks a lot as always dear Brummer! You and all the guys involved in getting guitarix out to the masses are awesome!

Re: Guitarix2 release version 0.42.1
I think we should review the demo banks/presets as the ones there are not particularly useful to help understanding how to build a rack
There should be a bunch of "dry" presets ranging from clean to high gain but without any of the modulation effects.
* Sparkly funky clean
* Warm jazzy clean
* Clean on the verge of breaking up
* Low gain bluesy
* Mid-gain crunch
* High gain rock
* High gain metal
Modulation effects could be present in the presets but should be disabled.

Re: Guitarix2 release version 0.42.1
Yes it is, but I don't really know why we should do that. The LV2 version of the jcm800pre already contain the tonestack, and the version in guitarix could use the tonestack plugin.
If you like the caps tonestack more, just use that instead.

It would make me glad to implement that, when I receive such a set as a user contribution.

Re: Guitarix2 release version 0.42.1
Hi Brummer,
I have tried both tonestack modules, Guitarix´s and C*´s but unfortunately both have the exact same issue: they retain sustain. I believe if the JCM800´s tonestack is built using the DK ampsim than it´s going to work properly . I could contribute with those presets if you like, but I make use of the JCM800PowA in order to achieve realistic simulations for clean, pushed clean (jazz sounds), crunch and High gain. So I don´t know if that would be a problem, since the JCM800PowA is still an experimental plugin.
Cheers,
Rodney
