I haven't looked into libfst, but it sounds like 'yes'. However our code isn't open, as I assume libfst is. Given that I'd be happy to offer help and insight based on our years working on vst support (ugh!), but we won't be using it or working on it in the near term. - mo
Re: [linux-audio-dev] jack_fst: a JACK client to run VST's
so are you actually doing the same as libfst ? I haven't looked into libfst, but it sounds like 'yes'. However our code i hope not! its hard to think of a reason for you to do this. you guys are already presumably using wine and i would think it much easier to use kjetil's approach of running VST's in a wine-executed process in which all threads are created as win32 threads. i haven't seen anything in your product info that would convince me to do the FST thing (run win32 code in a thread created using a linux API). the only reason for FST is that a native linux app that wants to run *lots* of VST plugins with truly minimal latency can't afford to context switch to/from a new process for every plugin. but if i was going to just run, say, 8 VST plugins on a linux system, kjetil's standalone/separate process model seems great to me. and even if my demands went beyond that, i would probably still build my host app using winemaker and execute it using wine. i would not try to run win32 code in an application written for linux :) i actually contemplated building ardour like this at one point. that has more complications that i was willing to deal with, but if i was going to do what you and the plugzilla guys are doing, the winemaker approach to compiling a native-linux-but-win32-API app would be my approach for sure. --p

Torben Hohn and I are pleased to announce the initial release of jack_fst, a small JACK client designed to run VST FX and VST/i's with connections to the rest of the JACK world, and, for VST/i's the ALSA sequencer. Tarball is available at: http://linuxaudiosystems.com/fst/jack_fst-1.2.tar.gz You will need the recently announced FST, a recent version of Wine, GTK+2 and JACK (from CVS at this time). Here is a list of VST plugins (actually) that are known to run successfully with jack_fst: Ambience.dll AnechoicRoomSimulator.dll BarsStripes.dll Big Tick Hexaline.dll BLOCKFISH.dll Boss DS-1.dll Boss SD-1.dll Classic EQ.dll Crystal.dll Cyanide2.dll DebaserDemo.dll DeeLay_sm.dll Delay Lama.dll deloizer095.dll DFX Transverb.dll dominion v1.2.dll Drumatic_22.dll endorphin.dll E-Phonic XPressor.dll FLOORFISH.dll Frohmage.dll GoldenGate.dll H2O.dll JS Vibrato V1.0.dll LoopaZoid.dll mabento.dll MadShifta.dll mda DX10.dll mda ePiano.dll mda Piano.dll MjMultibandCompressor.dll MjRotoDelay.dll ParisEQ.dll relofter.dll resolator_1.03_demo.dll RetroDelay.dll SIR.dll sloper.dll SoloString_v10.dll SPITFISH.dll Stretch Squash.dll SupaPhaser.dll Syntar.dll Tape Delay.dll THD.dll themodulator2.dll Trancemitter.dll

Most of the compatibility issues are with GUIs. oh, absolutely. i have yet to find a VST that i can't run if i don't open the editor. admittedly, i am deliberately only trying free VSTs, but the contrast is remarkable. and for ardour users: ardour can build its own GUIs for most VST plugins if you need it to. Also if you're using threading, they recommend a not-too-recent 2.3.2 glibc to help with threading issues. We are using 2.3.2-4.80.8 and it looks good so far. Apparently getting threading to work between wine and glibc has been tricky. heh. thats where libfst comes in. we started from the mono hack, which was known to not support threads. i then managed to apply some rather deep experience i have had with threading on x86 systems to the problem. nothing particularly clever, but libfst allows us to take a thread created outside of wine and get wine to adopt it, thus allowing win32 code to be executed by it. ok, so its pretty clever :) we are at least 50% optimistic that this part of libfst will make it into wine at some point in the not too distant future. i will be talking about this work at ZKM in less than 2 weeks. --p
