GxPlugins.lv2 release v0.6

Post by tramp »

Hi

I like to announce a new release of GxPlugins.lv2
GxPlugins.lv2 is a set of mostly analogue guitar pedal simulations as
LV2 plugins, simulated with the guitarix ampsim toolkit.

This release add the GxCreamMachine, GXValveCaster and the GxBoobTube to
the set, and fix a issue with the bypass state under automation conditions.

I hope they may be useful for the one or the other.
Build instruction and screenshots may be found here:

https://github.com/brummer10/GxPlugins.lv2

the release tar.gz file is located here:

https://github.com/brummer10/GxPlugins.lv2/releases

regards
hermann

It's a kxstudio package (from gcc5-deps/now PPA). Not compatible?

Same issue here, with the same package from Kxstudio repository on KDE NEON 18.04

Recent KXStudio builds lv2 1.15.5+git20181224v5 from git (the upcoming release of lv2). On the way lv2 1.14 (stable) -> 1.15 (future) two things were changed causing trouble in some projects:

* lv2-core.pc (for pkg-config) was removed -> lv2.pc is good enough
* layout of include headers was modified

To be compatible for upcoming lv2 I bet something like [1] is required for GxPlugins.lv2. Unfortunately I haven't GxPlugins.lv2 in my Raspi builds yet - if so there would be a pull request to fix...

Just thought: was on my TODO anyway for long time to get GxPlugins.lv2 on Raspi - so why not just do it.

But starting I had to admit that GxPlugins.lv2 is a composition of umpteen git submodules.

And now yet another bet: there is more than just one project affected.

So fixing is definitely others people duty :)

And another one:

glanced the screen shots: they look bit mod-guish to me.

As far as I remember: mod-gui is about webkit based plugin GUIs.

If both so:
a browser engine for... a plugin GUI - really??? That performing acceptable on Raspi while rendering audio? Nothing to expect. So do GxPlugins.lv2's GUIs support less expensive Genvironments?

Good to know.

Definitely, changing a plugin standard implementation in this way, is a no go. :!:

Indeed, and I'm glad that it is done already in the right place.

The screenys show the plug interfaces which are written based on the X11 lib and cairo. So the ones you could use with your host of choice.
But indeed all GXPlugins comes with a web based MOD interface as well, as I use them all on my MOD.
To use the MOD UI, you've to run

Code: Select all

make mod

Running the dsp and a little server on the Raspi and running the UI on a external PC or tablet or whatever, yes, that perform acceptable.

Agreed fully: mod is an option and LV2 issues turned into right direction.

So I took some time to build GxPlugins.lv2 and did some quick runtime tests: Looks very good.

One thing: To make GxPlugins.lv2 build cross with Openembedded/Yocto I had to create a huge patch. That is some brute force / quick and dirty approach - just wanted to see if the plugins will build and run. Problem with the patch is: Apart of that it is ugly - it will be a maintenance burden. So I thought about another solution and I will send out a pull request to GxAxisFace.lv2 as an example and we'll see...
