Re: Decent Sampler for Linux
Is anyone else in the world distributing samples in that format? Is format documented?

Re: Decent Sampler for Linux
Reminds sfz. Hard to imagine it would have some benefit over sfz?

Re: Decent Sampler for Linux
Code: Select all
./DecentSampler: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libcurl.so.4: version `CURL_OPENSSL_3' not found (required by ./DecentSampler)
The build is for 16.04. As that is EOL soon I think I'll wait and see if they release an update.

The changelog of the most recent version (0.9.5) mentions a libcurl fix. Seems to work fine with my recent Debian testing.bluzee wrote: ↑Mon Mar 22, 2021 7:43 pmI assume that means one might need to down grade to libcurl3?Code: Select all

I've only experimented with this briefly, but it definitely looks promising. Even if it's not a widely supported format, there's enough cool free instruments on pianobook.co.uk to make it worth checking out (tip: filter by exs24 format when browsing Pianobook, those are the instruments that have been mostly ported to DecentSampler format—I imagine they'll eventually add a DecentSampler tag)... Some of the content on Pianobook is also available in sfz, but there appears to be more in exs24.
(Note: the plugin itself is proprietary, afaik, and wants you to make an account on decentsamples.com. Hardly a dealbreaker for me, but something to be aware of.)

Re: Decent Sampler for Linux
A closed source sampler that needs curl doesn't look very inspiring confidence. I can use a web browser to download stuff. Then I know that nothing is uploaded.elcalen wrote: ↑Wed Mar 24, 2021 12:28 pmThe changelog of the most recent version (0.9.5) mentions a libcurl fix.

Re: Decent Sampler for Linux
The libcurl bug has been addressed.
They have it designed so that you can create an account then use the app to browse their sample library and install directly. I didn't do that however I was still able to download and install a sample set and get it to play.
Designed to be a very simple and easy to use item. Pulse and ALSA support only unfortunately. Something to help keep the recent windows migrants happy I suppose.

Re: Decent Sampler for Linux
Heck, I haven't used Windows in like 15+ years and I'm still very happy to see this. A native, easy to use, Kontakt style sampled instrument plugin is something we've definitely been lacking.

Re: Decent Sampler for Linux
Just FYI, a recent update has apparently changed some of the default config locations. After upgrading I had to sign in again and found my library was empty. After digging a bit, I found that some content had previously been installed in ~/.config/Decidedly, now as far as I can tell it's all under ~/.config/DecentSampler.

Re: Decent Sampler for Linux
I would like to use Decent Sampler with Mixbus DAW.
I've test alternately vst & vst3 : in both cases Mixbus32C-7.0.0 crash !
Note that i've test Decent Sampler v1.0.2 Linux (x86_64) also :
(OS : Linux Mint 20.1 (Cinnamon))

Note that i've test Decent Sampler v1.0.2 Linux (x86_64) also :
- vst (.so) with Ardour v5.12 : It works !
- vst3 with REAPER v6.15: It works !
(OS : Linux Mint 20.1 (Cinnamon))

Re: Decent Sampler for Linux
Most likely case is dynamic linking of plugin. You can check it with ldd.Berhu3 wrote: ↑Thu May 06, 2021 9:11 am I would like to use Decent Sampler with Mixbus DAW.

Solution is to use it with carla. Add carla plugin, and in that plugin use sampler plugin.
