How to load presets in OBXD
I've installed obxd.lv2 via the kxstudio repositiories but can't figure out how to load presets. I've put the presets I downloaded from linuxsynths.com in the .lv2 folder in my home folder, but when I run obxd in Carla and right click on the GUI the skins/bank menus are greyed out. Any help would be appreciated.

Re: How to load presets in OBXD
OK, forgive me if I'm being a bit dense. I can't see any 'load preset' option in Carla for either obxd-lv2 or obxd-vst. This is what I see. When I open obxd in Ardour all the presets are the same i.e. 'default'. Am I putting my presets in the wrong location?falkTX wrote:on the 1st page click the load presets button.

Re: How to load presets in OBXD
This reminds me of an issue I've wanted to address for a while. Carlas carpx file contains paths to a number of things. I can modify a setup file with relative paths, and Carla reads and understands this. But if I save changes in Carla it rewrites all the paths to absolute paths. This is a nuissance if I want to move a setup file and related items to another machine and location for instance.falkTX wrote:ah, so the contents of the folder is not right.
the presets need to go into ~/.lv2 directly (the xxx.lv2 stuff), not a folder that contains the presets.
LV2 is very picky about what and how you put things in its path.
So, is it possible to have Carla respect relative paths, and keep them relative at save?
