Can you please check the G#4? I get no sound when playing that note with velocity round about 50 to 60.

Does the way the Carla backend uses Fluidsynth prevent one from implementing it elsewhere in the same program? I use the Fluidsynth library in an app. However, when building with the appropriate libraries in order to also use Carla, I get the message fluidsynth: error: Couldn't find the requested au...

Is it the files or linuxsampler or qsampler that's the problem here? When I tried out SSO the first time I also had problems loading some of the instruments. Open the problematic sfz files with a text editor and ensure that the directories which are referenced are correct, especially regarding the ...

Big sfz sample packs take a while to load. Is there any way one can get the loading progress from the carla host api when using the native sfz plugin? How do I set the backend mode (i.e. Rack mode / single client mode / multi client mode)? The patchbay port connect function takes groupID and portID....

Hi Firstly, the Jack API documentation is a good reference to keep handy: http://jackaudio.org/files/docs/html/index.html Secondly, here is a list of example Jack clients: http://jackit.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/lxr/http/source/example-clients/ The connect.c example connects or disconnects two ports. ...

Is there some trick to loading a plugin state? I can save a state using carla_save_plugin_state, but using carla_load_plugin_state on the same file returns false. Does the api provide a way to have for instance one midi input port and one audio output port, and then route the midi and audio internal...

Ok I can now produce sound from plugins, by activating them: (0 being the id of the plugin.)

The internal audio file player still doesn't work though.

I have trouble getting the app to produce sound. It builds ok and runs; jack clients appear and I can assign it to the system audio output and assign midi to its input. However, no audio. Both for the audio file example you provided, as well as for loading other plugins. I can even show the plugin's...

Roundup thus far: The includes are #include <carla/CarlaBackend.h> #include <carla/CarlaEngine.hpp> #include <carla/CarlaHost.h> #include <carla/includes/CarlaDefines.h> #include <carla/CarlaPlugin.hpp> #include <carla/CarlaNative.h> I use CARLA_BACKEND_USE_NAMESPACE to be in the right namespace. Fu...

Nevermind - I added the KXStudio repositories and installed Carla from there. pkg-config now works.

Building and installing Carla (stable) doesn't produce any .pc files for pkg-config, so
pkg-config --cflags carla-standalone
and
pkg-config --libs carla-standalone
doesn't work.

Awesome, thanks for the help!

Please bare with me though; we might have to start quite basic.

Is there a Carla source package I need to install, or do I extract the source code and use it from there?

Hi, if there is no specific reason for using mididings, you can try QMidiRoute. It's an easy to use GUI that should be able to do everything you want (if I didn't miss something). No scripting required.

Has anyone used the Carla (the plugin host by falkTX) source as an API to include plugin host capability in their own app? I'm looking for a quick basic guide to get started. It doesn't make sense spending a lot of time figuring this out from the source when someone has already done it ;). For insta...
