and that can be a bit discouraging so I would be happy to contribute to such an effort
should it happen... Regards, Chuck On 24/09/2025 07:56, Lorenzo Sutton wrote:
Hi all,Rosegarden now has LV2 support and with recent versions this is not beta any more.I think that this was a major result and happened (actually quite quickly) thanks to lots of work and dedication by Philip and Ted (and maybe others, sorry if I missed anyone!).But while LV2 support really pushed Rosegarden's possibility as a music creation software, we know that LV2 and plugins in general are really hard to debug because of the variety and combinations of UI, design etc. it's essentially like having potentially tens of different 'software' of their own, besides the standard (LV2 in this case).On top of that we now also have Wayland which is sort-of-mature now but most LV2 are still using X11. Then different desktop environments, screen sizes, distributions, etc. etc.Some plugins (e.g. sfizz) rely on loading external files into the plugin... an additional layer of complxity.I'm wondering if as a user community we could push a testing effort which I've nicknamed "hackathon" maybe a bit inappropriately because the idea could be to really try and test and report as much as possible, having a variety of distributions, configurations, environments and, of course, plugins... Including (ideally) commercial ones if anyone is using them.As a positive side-effect the positive outcomes and maybe even some demos / tutorials could come out of it (e.g. making a whole song just with Rosegarden + plugins 'in the box'...)Does it sound like an interesting idea? Too crazy? Not really worth it?I have no idea of how this could be practically set-up but if there is interest we can maybe discuss it...As a long-time Rosegarden user / tester / ... I'm really happy of some of the recent updates Rosegarden got and the care it's receiving by developers so I think this could be a nice community effort to help in this moment :-)Lorenzo _______________________________________________ Rosegarden-user mailing list [email protected] - use the link below to unsubscribe https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/rosegarden-user
