Quilcom Handpan in Linux

Post by donnek »

This has a beautiful sound. I've tried running it in Ardour in AVLinux 21, using Yabridge to convert the .dll into an .so. It loads and runs, but there's a "spit" or crackle after 80% of notes, which means it's not really useable. The interface also doesn't catch some mouse events - for instance, I can click on the centre chime and it sounds, but clicking on the others does nothing.

Is this a known issue with Flowstone apps, namely, that audio stuff only works reliably on Windows, or is there perhaps something I'm not doing right?

Hello donnek and welcome to the forum!

FlowStone is Windows only and so far nobody else has mentioned what you’ve tried on any of my plugins, so I have no experience.
What interests me is that you get issues “after 80% of notes” which suggests to me that Yabridge may not be operating the CPU’s SSE2 instruction set correctly.
I’m happy for you to send the plugin to the devs at https://libreav.org/software/yabridge and maybe they can sort the issue for you.
