The vst integration into lmms had only very basal functions and no working user interfaces. So I gave up and up to now I run the vst-hosts as well as my commercial korg and a lot of free plugins in wine. I connect and combine them over wineasio in jack with genuine linux applications i.e. ardour, hydrogen, linuxsampler, rackarrack, zynadd My favorite "vsti-hosts" are reaper - I abuse it just for this - and a windows freeware named vsthost by herman seib http://www.hermannseib.com/vsthost.htm Those settings run tolerably even for live performance, but maybe I should give dssi-vst a try again. Does dssi-vst give you full access to vsti's midi controls, menues, presets and guis? Is dssi-vst ready for this? Has Steinberg made it's Asio stuff opensource?

Re: Dssi-Vst and Ubuntu Studio
Hi brian it is not hard to use vst, even live I've done it during the Ubuntu Party in Paris last week. When you have compil ddsi-vst,run jack, open a terminal, vsthost and your vst, that will connect straight away in jack.

Aww Yeah?! ;-) And can it render a 60-track-mix with individual plugins and all Parameters in the plugins and in the mixer automized to have that wired flanger on the voice on two words only and with a sweep thru the delay-parameter at 2:32 and let the bass-drum become louder at the end of the song and the guitar-solo wildly moving in the panorama and all this rendered offline with dithering and exactly to the file-format you need for a CD and then with the same mix another file for a movie-soundtrack?

presonus firepod problems
Hi folks, apologies for cross post, not sure where is best bet. I have a Presonus Firepod, and have just setup Ubuntu studio 9.10 on a gigabyte p55 mobo. I have had no luck getting my firepod working yet and am starting to wonder if it's the firepod itself. Can anyone tell me what exactly is supposed to happen with one when you plug it in and turn it on? On my mac, the light would turn blue. When I turn it on now, the light turns blue during power up, then goes back to red, with a brief blue blink. I don't see any entry in /dev for /dev/raw1394. Any tips on diagnosing this much appreciated! thanks iain -- Ubuntu-Studio-users mailing list Ubuntu-Studio-users@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-studio-users

Where possible I run them in standalone mode under Wine, where not (Oddity, I've never got the hang of the preset system so use VST host banks and patches) I run them in the cost-free Cantabile Lite VST host run using Wine. Naturally, I'm using Wine-asio for both scenarios. I've never had any problems running these plugins; obviously they crash on rare occasions, or get booted off Jack every now and again, but all the functionality er, functions. Since Wine-asio came along, I stopped bothering with DSSI-VST or FST.

Re: disabling pulse audio in 9.10?
Hi, Iain! My setup 1. Switch off /apps/gnome_settings_daemon/plugins/sound/active in gconf-editor 2. Switch off Gnome sounding at all in gnome-volume-control(I believe so) 3. Create file ~/.pulse/client.conf consists of autospawn=no 4. killall -KILL pulseaudio 5. start jackd with qjackctl Alternative way: install xubuntu over ubuntustudio and use xfce instead Gnome :))) 2009/12/8 Iain Duncan : > Hey folks, wondering if anyone knows what would be different for disabling > pulseaudio for 9.10.

ZynAddSubFx and Bristol are both on my favorite list of synths/v-inst/fx, but unfortunaly the list is kind'a small if you exclude Win-VST. I havent had any serious problems using them with dssi-vst, but I havent tested extensively and only one at a time, like "XLN addictive drums" for when I practice my e-drums or "VoxengoBoogex" for guitar. I have removed Pulse, but other than that, I just run them with "vsthost /_path_to_/vsti.dll" and most of them work, If I'm composing/editing I just load them in my host (XT2) but I like the idea of just clicking on the "drums" icon on my desktop and play without having to start my host and load/setup the instrument first.
