Zyn-Fusion LV2 3.0.3
Posted: Sun Aug 12, 2018 7:24 am
Hello,
Compiled MusE again from upstream about an hour ago and then took the plunge and compiled the updated UI for ZynAddSubFX called "Zyn-Fusion". Instructions for doing so: https://github.com/zynaddsubfx/zyn-fusi ... g-on-Linux
The only zynaddsubfx binary on my system is a result of the compile mentioned above.
The binary runs and I'm staring at this new (gorgeous) UI. However, I'm unable to use it from within MusE? For starters, when I attempt to add the synth, I see 2 "ZynAddSubFX LV2" entries. Clicking either entry does load the LV2 but I see different results when I attempt to "show native gui". For the first entry, the legacy UI is displayed. At this point, this is probably a good thing (for me) since it means I can continue to work. If I attempt to show the UI for the track loaded with the newer lv2 plugin (the 2nd entry), MusE just crashes.
I also took a look inside Settings -> MIDI Ports / Soft Synths
I see the following entries (I am only listing synths here and not the related effects that ship with it)
File Type Inst Name Version
ZynAddSubFX Native VST(synths) 0 ZynAddSubFX 3.0.3
carla LV2 (synths) 1 ZynAddSubFX LV2
ZynAddSubFX LV2 (synths) 0 ZynAddSubFX LV2
Given the last 2 have no version information, I'm going to assume the entries relate to the older UI. If this issue gets worked out with 3.0.3, I'd find myself wondering how to remove the entries which relate to the older version. In the meantime, I'll obviously be working with the older UI and even experimenting with loading 3.0.3 into Carla. Let's see what happens...
