This shouldn't be necessary and honestly sounds ludicrous to expect users to do. It may work but it's a messy workaround.glowrak guy wrote:Try renaming all your existing vst, .vst, lv2 and .lv2 folders, adjust your daw paths,
Which folders?glowrak guy wrote:make new empty folders, install the new zyn-fusion, and test like mad.
I'm not so sure, look at the install script:glowrak guy wrote:I think /usr/share data is safe.
Code: Select all

I got "error while loading shared libraries: libmxml.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory" when trying that.fundamental wrote: IIRC you should be able to cd into the extracted tarball and just run the zynaddsubfx binary there.
Sorry, but I have no idea what you are talking about, how to connect to the UI from a running instance?fundamental wrote:Alternatively you can put it in the install dir ( /opt/zyn-fusion ) and connect the zyn-fusion UI to any running zynaddsubfx instance (2.5.x+ for limited functionality, 3.0.x+ for full functionality).
