Installazione completata con successo in sede #ElsaGLUG! 🛠️🐧
Abbiamo installato #UbuntuStudio 26.04 sul laptop di un nuovo socio. È una distro eccezionale, già configurata e ottimizzata per chi fa produzione audio, video e grafica con strumenti 100% #SoftwareLibero 🎨🎵
Il nostro fedele Tux ha supervisionato le operazioni direttamente dalla tastiera e approva il risultato! 🫡
Usate anche voi questa distro? Come vi trovate?

With Ubuntu Studio, I’ve breathed new life into an old PC and reignited my passion for music 😃🤟🏻
After 14 years I installed Ubuntu on a PC again. Chose because I want to play music and use real-time guitar effects.
So far: kernel panics, broken updates, and hours wasted configuring my M-Audio sound card.
I was almost starting to regret it...
#Linux #Ubuntu #UbuntuStudio #AudioProduction #MusicProduction #MIDI #OpenSource #KernelPanic
🧵 So, #WindowsVST via #LinVST on #UbuntuStudio #Linux with #Nvidia graphics blacking out… what to do?
Well, eventually the obvious to the Linux nerd: Use a recent version of #Yabridge instead of the oudated LinVST wrapper.
I didn't make the move earlier because I didn't have to. Now I did.
Know what's really good with #Ardour and #Mixbus? They still find my Windows #VST plugins even after the switch. I rescan my plugins, and all my projects still work, because these DAWs somehow reference the plugins in a clever way. I have observed this earlier, even when copying projects between operating systems, the plugins still are correctly there in my projects in Ardour. (Of course, one must have the plugins installed on each computer/OS.)
Most Windows plugins I run are 32bit still. Old and good stuff. Not a problem with Yabridge / #Wine on Linux.
So, this took me about an hour to fix, but now things should be settled again for a while and for more #LinuxProAudio #Recording.
So, testing plugins on occasion, I found out that my #Linux #UbuntuStudio 24.04 does not run #WindowsVST any more.
It just doesn't work no more. I mean, the VSTs do run, but the GUIs are all not useable.
This might be due to a switch to #Nvidia graphics, which I had hoped to solve a problem with #Lightworks, which it didn't.
So basically, I can't do audio production any more, because I need #Voxengo #Elephant and #Fabfilter.
There is no mouse pointer in Windows #VST gui windows. Some windows are just plain black. Of plugins I have been using literally for over a decade.
Other #Wine applications do run with GUI. I'm using #LinVST, which used to work well for years. (And still on #X11, no #Wayland)
I'm screwed. Either I will be able to solve this somehow, or I can't accept production jobs.
This wouldn't have happened on macOS, I must say… as a person doing recording on Linux for 20 years now, including a couple of full-blown album releases.

EDIT: Solution see 🧵
At least I found the time for a little #Rocket science today, before I now have to prepare for tonight's money making monkey business. 🤪
I used a #sequencer in #vcvRack to control this #WaldorfRocket. The tiny #MIDI keyboard in the back plays #DecentSampler in #Carla on #UbuntuStudio #Linux.
The #piano is a #Schiedmayer from the 1940ties which I promised myself to play much more, it's such an incredibly nice instrument. (I sold my digital piano, and didn't continue using PianoTeq… forget about it.)
Ubuntu Studio 26.04 LTS is here!🦝

When we started our band's live streams, we only had a 2-channel soundcard. I try to remember how we made that work with a full band.
