Hi,

regarding Scarlett Plugin Suite and Novation Bass Station vsts, I have not been able to install licence files. I run them in Carla, they work fine in demo mode. I've activated the products, I've got .fnlf files for them, but I get "This is not a valid license file" error. I've tried adding a license file in Reaper also, I've changed permissions to executable but it still doesn't work.

How to install those license files? Any help would be deeply appreciated.

All right, thanks for quick reply.

Just a quick note, for people who consider buying vst plugins from Focusrite,
Red 2 Eq and Red 3 Compressor work fine, they are easily activated by pasting a code in a plugin.

Package carla-bridge-wine32 is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source

E: Package 'carla-bridge-wine32' has no installation candidate



What i do wrong? :(

I use Debian testing with kx studio repositories but your command works as it seems, thank you very much.
Synaptic couldnt find that 386package.

Ok Getting closer to a messy work around.

install play on linux.
use it to install wine 1.7.46
created a virtual drive and link it to wine 1.7.46
place carla-bridge-win32.exe and jackbridge-wine.dll in a directory in that drive.
symlink both to usr/lib/carla

32 bit vst work but no gui is avail
i can controll the vst with generic controlls verified with izotope ozone 5 reverb. audio in audio out porcessed....
is there another .exe file hidden somewhere that is used for the gui. if so please let me know. and i will try to symlink it too... This is all just a guess but so far i am making a little progress


dssi-vst-server[1]: created audio thread

Moses' toeses! I didn't realize Carla could run Windows plugins! Not only it does, it runs many plugins that I could not run on Festige. This is just excellent! Thank you! :D

I dont know if the win32vst issue has been solved for anyone else with Faltx patch back in july. Hasnt worked for me. exact same errors. Yes i know i was using dssi i posted the wrong dump. anywho every version of ubuntu and arch even down grading wine to the same 1.7.46 thats in kx or below still gives me the same problems. Faltx. you said you had it patched. was it bridge code related or wine. i have tried fresh installs in vms and 2 different modern pcs with or without proprietary graphics drivers.

I had assumed it was a win issue becuase 32 bit reaper had the same type of behavior

If there is anything i an do to help let me know

If i am the only one having this problem. then i will just give up lol

fair enough.. i had not heard anyone else chime in. Wanting to make sure i didnt miss something. Its really odd airwavevst works but no gui in ardour or carla. reaper 32 bit sends the xrun count sky high and no audio. DSSI-VST in arch works absolutely flawless. for whatever reason the dsp load and cpu load is now drastically lower than carla bridges in ubuntu. Actually it DSSI runs better than it ever did before. May have something to do with wine 1.7.51. So for now that seems to be a valid work around.

Just out of curiousity. What would be involved in one of these brdges to add a translation between jack freewheel and whatever VST calls it to allow Bounce with effects to work in ardour. That would really be great.

Hello!

I'm openSUSE user and want to try to use Win32 VST plugins with Carla.
I've downloaded latest release of Carla and built it from source.
But when I launch it, win32-bridge is not active.
I want to try to build win32-bridge (or wine-bridge?) but don't know where is the source code is located.
Please, could you give link to source repository?
I'll try to build it under openSUSE and will report about results.
