to gather information about descriptors people use when producing music. Now we just need to get as many people using them as we can so we can get a load of juicy data to analyse.
After reading the website I'm not really much clearer. So the plugins contact their servers to get preset information?
They have really nice guis at least.
Ok, cool sounds like an interesting idea. Have you had a change to look at the code, everything looks ok? It sounds like a great idea but it the idea of them sending who knows what information to them makes me slightly nervous (unless it is something that you submit to send it).
Just looking over the documentation and it does indeed look to be something you click to submit to them.
Thanks for posting this, nice idea and certainly will be interesting to see how it develops.
Hey I'm the guy who posted this to the JUCE forums.
Nice to see people taking an interest in our plug-ins. I promise there is nothing sinister going on with them.
The info that gets sent to the server is:
* Whatever you type in the boxes.
* Audio feature data (Spectral Centroid, Bark Coefficients and other such things)
* Plug-in configuration data (parameter settings, number of channels and such)
If you want to quickly see exactly what is getting sent, change a plug-in to save locally. It should save an XML file to ~/Documents/SAFEPluginData or somewhere similar. That is exactly the same data that gets sent to the server.
Maybe I'll add something to this effect into the documentation to clear things up.
Thank you Flying_Pigeon, that's good to know and the clarification is very much appreciated. Really looking forward to trying these plugins out, thank you for allowing them to be used by us linux users!
falkTX I downloaded your binaries and put them in my ~/.vst and ~/.lv2 folders but they are not showing in renoise or carla, despite scanning and making sure they are reading files from those folders. Tracktion saw them during a scan but got stuck on them and I had to kill it (not entirely unusual).
I guess I can try building them myself but your binaries almost always work for everything else.
ldd: warning: you do not have execution permission for `.vst/SAFECompressor.so'
.vst/SAFECompressor.so: /usr/lib/libcurl.so.4: version `CURL_OPENSSL_3' not found (required by .vst/SAFECompressor.so)
I installed libcurl-gnutls 7.32.0, is that not the right package?
falkTX wrote:"Illegal instruction" usually happens when an app tries to use CPU instructions that it doesn't support (like SSE4 on an old system).
-march=native in gcc, built in one high system then passed to a lower one is usually the problem.
these plugins had that, so I'll push an update without it, thanks for the report!
I was immediately attracted by the idea of semanticaudio. I'm using the plugins (latest version) in Renoise on KXstudio, everything is working fine except the loading plug-in settings. They work when I put a keyword myself, but I can't open the window with available descriptors. I've checked in Carla too, same results.
