DISTRHO New release pack (2014-07-16)

[bluebell]

I used it in Qtractor. Hexter works fine, so there is a mature alternative to it. However, Dexed looks promising.

Great work F!

The new obxd build works fine under Tracktion 5 - yeah!

It may not have as many knobs n' options as Aspect but it is a good sounding synth, as proved in its KVR OSC:

dexed still crashes T5 but that's TSC's fault.

Thanks falkTX!

Obxd runs fine in my Qtractor and sounds good. I can't compare it to an original OBX because I never had one.

Vex is fixed, huzzah !

Thanks !

Everything compiles fine now.

Dexed lv2 crashes when loading patches or selecting cartdridges.

It was a suil-problem. Upgrading suil helped.

With current Carla-git, I noticed 2 troubles with distrho:
1) on one of my laptops, DSSI versions won't show the GUI. on my other laptop the GUI shows fine. yet on the first laptop, other DSSI plugins work fine (calf for example). console output from the first laptop:

Code: Select all

CarlaPlugin::waitForOscGuiShow() - got response, asking UI to show itself now
CarlaPluginThread::run() - UI closed cleanly
app finished

Not sure what could be the reason... Different video cards? First one is an old Lenovo laptop with core2duo and integrated ultra-low-end intel graphics (running on open-source driver). Second one is a newer "intel pentium" (whatever that means) and has nvidia graphics in it (running on proprietary driver). Other DSSI plugins work fine on the first laptop. What's even more intriguing is that with the lv2 version, the GUI shows fine on them both. But

2) LV2 version's GUI does not reflect the correct plugin state. Like if you load the plugin, make some changes to the default state, then close GUI and reopen it, GUI will show the default state again, which is wrong, as can be seen on the "generic" GUI. Other LV2 plugins state is reflected correctly every time.

[tangerine]

regarding lv2 UI state, which plugin(s) have issues?
I know mverb had a small issue with the knobs which I fixed.

All of them have this issue, on both of my laptops.

Console output for launching Carla, adding the LV2 version of the 3-band EQ, moving some faders, closing the UI, opening&closing the UI again, quitting Carla:

The faders and knobs in the GUI do move, and do set their value correctly, but if you close the GUI and open it again, it will show the default state again, instead of reflecting the actual values.

[tangerine]

Yes, I understand what you're saying.
I'll fix these issues soon.

with this, mverb knobs fixed, energyXT issues resolved and updated dexed I think DISTRHO will deserve a new release again.

Actually also in VST version, the GUI won't show when UI bridge is enabled. Says "GUI timeout" in console (after 6 seconds of waiting). Shows fine with UI bridge disabled.
Also seems like in GUI versions of the EQ and the Splitter, the fader action is inverted? Or is this intentional? For instance, taking the "mixer" fader down is supposed to make it louder?

[akiz]

My Dexed doesnt make sound.
Ive tried 32bit and 64bit, every daw and also connection via carla.
Can anybody help me?

[akiz]

Thank you, it works now.
Now i wait for 0.7
