Hi @all, I'm trying to start the E-Piano-plugin MrRay73.dll with jack-dssi-host dssi-vst.so:MrRay73.dll It is my first dll-plugin. Two errors are logged, one concerning audio and another a "GUI thread". Is someone able to evaluate, which one is the fatal? I run jackd with Realtime switched off on an Intel Atom based eeebox with Debian/squeeze and will change to a RT-kernel, once the plugins I'm interested in run in general. So I guess, the fatal error is not the realtime issue. Maybe the errors just indicate, that MrRay73.dll is not compatible with dssi-vst (... don't know. anyone?). Please take a look at my logs: $ jack-dssi-host dssi-vst.so:MrRay73.dll jack-dssi-host: Warning: DSSI path not set jack-dssi-host: Defaulting to "/usr/local/lib/dssi:/usr/lib/dssi:/home/zi/. dssi" VST_PATH not set, defaulting to /home/zi/vst:/usr/local/lib/vst:/usr/lib/vs t RemoteVSTClient: all cache files are up-to-date, not running scanner DSSIVSTPlugin::instantiate(MrRay73.dll) DSSIVSTPluginInstance::DSSIVSTPluginInstance(MrRay73.dll) Returning file identifiers: Pj3wMQmSLe7gDAUWrHynpFM7 DSSI_PATH not set, defaulting to /home/zi/.dssi:/usr/local/lib/dssi:/usr/li b/dssi RemoteVSTClient: executing /usr/local/lib/dssi/dssi-vst/dssi-vst-server MrR ay73.dll,Pj3wMQmSLe7gDAUWrHynpFM7 DSSI VST plugin server v0.986 Copyright (c) 2004-2008 Chris Cannam Loading "MrRay73.dll"...
