Ardour 2 and 5, with new Calf package
Hi. I run Ubuntu Studio that has pre installed Ardour 2 with Calf plug ins.
Now, I've just installed Ardour 5 that run ok, but only with the old calf plug-ins.
So I compiled and installed the new Calf package (calf-0.0.60.tar.gz). But both Ardour versions (2 and 5) only see the old plug-ins.
How can I make at least Ardour 5 to launch the new Calf package?
Any help?
Thanks!

Maybe you need to remove old ones first?

Re: Ardour 2 and 5, with new Calf package
I can launch and see new plugins from 'Calf Jack Host', so I know they are installed.
And I have the environment set:
LV2_PATH=/usr/local/lib/calf
But neither Ardour 2 or Ardour 5 show the new plug-ins.
Any help?

Re: Ardour 2 and 5, with new Calf package
Are you sure that's the right path? They're normally in an lv2 directory as far as I remember.
Re: Ardour 2 and 5, with new Calf package
ardour just uses the lv2 libraries. You can test it more quickly by using the "lv2ls" command which lists all the plugins the library finds.
try in a terminal
to check.
the files should be in a *.lv2 directory and must have a manifest.ttl file in that directory AND that directory must be in the LV2_PATH
try in a terminal
Code: Select all
lv2ls | grep calf
the files should be in a *.lv2 directory and must have a manifest.ttl file in that directory AND that directory must be in the LV2_PATH

Hm! I had to install lv2ls. And running the command I have:ssj71 wrote:ardour just uses the lv2 libraries. You can test it more quickly by using the "lv2ls" command which lists all the plugins the library finds.

Re: Ardour 2 and 5, with new Calf package
But the installer told me:
Libraries have been installed in:
/usr/local/lib/calf
and
ls /usr/local/lib/calf
calf.a calf.la calf.so

/usr/local/lib/calf
and

calf.a calf.la calf.so
Re: Ardour 2 and 5, with new Calf package
Hold on.
The Calf installer readme says "Calf is installed as calf.so library in your LADSPA directory"
So it's a LADSPA plugin, not an LV2.
Right?

Re: Ardour 2 and 5, with new Calf package
I believe that package containing ladspa has been the cause of a lot of problems lately. Did you download the Debian source? I'm curious about how you have ardour 2, that's really old.
I would suggest getting rid of that package you installed and then adding the kxstudio repo, install calf from there.

sysrquer: I downloaded from http://calf-studio-gear.org/files/ I've been using Ardour because it came with Ubuntu studio. I admit that i should upgrade a couple of years ago.sysrqer wrote:I believe that package containing ladspa has been the cause of a lot of problems lately. Did you download the Debian source?

I remember reading somewhere that kxstudio repo has a unstable version of calf plugins, is that right?
Thanks!
