Master Mix Plugin doesn't work in Ardour / Linux

[Titus Prefect]

Hi everybody,
I recently purchased the Tracktion DAW Essentials and the Master Mix plugin. Unfortunately Ardour does not load the Master Mix plugin, meaning that it wont show up in my available plugins list. The DAW Essentials do work perfectly fine though.
I'm running this in Ubuntu Studio 20.10 64-bit and Ardour Version 6.3.0.

Hopefully someone can help me with this problem.

Greetings Lukas

Hi,

Load fine here, openSUSE TW Ardour 6.5
Does it works for you in other hosts?

[Linux] Version 1.0.3 Isn't working for me in Waveform, Reaper and Renoise.
Pluginval output is:-
Starting test: pluginval / Scan for known types: /home/chrissy/.vst/Master Mix.so...
Num types found: 0
!!! Test 1 failed: No types found
FAILED!! 1 test failed, out of a total of 1

Finished validating: /home/chrissy/.vst/Master Mix.so
*** FAILED: 1 TESTS
*** FAILED: 1 TESTS


Version 1.0.2 is working ok tho ( well except for a keyfile problem I'm having, but the devs have fixed it for me on one machine, but today I booted my 2nd laptop and will need another keyfile for the machine id )

[Kott]

oh, there is new version, I'm using 1.0.2

UPDATE: 1.0.3 works too (Ardour, WF), it was need to remove then add again in Ardour

[Kott]

first thing that usually try:

ldd ./Master\ Mix.so

then (you need the jackd runnung):

carla-single vst ./Master\ Mix.so

Hi Kott, thanks for your answer, it really helped. Idd told me that Master Mix was missing a dependency, which led me to replacing libcurl4 with libcurl3, and now it works like a charm.
Thanks a lot

[Kott]

@FigBug is the curl needed for plugins? If not - it can be disabled in build flags.

Good find Titus,
This could explain why I'm having problems with Master_Mix not looking for the keyfile, but needing it installed offline. I really don't like downgrading system packages and I'm not sure if libcurl3 and 4 can coexist .

Hi Miko, I did find an instruction on how to do that, but I haven't tested it yet.

Thanks Titus, I have reported the issue on the bug tracker, so hopefully the devs will fix the build soon and save us having to mess with system libs.

oh there is an update. tracktion-download-manager is such garbage. I have 1.2 but there are no updates (unless you look in your downloads online in your account) listed in it. manual download it is.
(oh it shows old version as 1.2 instead of 1.0.2 and update is 1.0.3 so its lower... who knows the dl manager is garbage anyway).

Code: Select all

/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libcurl.so.4: version `CURL_OPENSSL_3' not found

aaah.

Your best bet is to download an old libcurl4 and run it like

Code: Select all

#!/bin/bash
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/bcactus/bin/libs Waveform11

my bin/libs has libcurl.so.4 and others in it from bionic (libwebkit, libjavascript etc) to make old Biotek work.

Ive had to do this in the past to fix I think old Waverazor (which now does not depend on it).

Om cool I believe this bug is fixed in version 1.0.4 according to the bug tracker, so just a matter of waiting until it's pushed to the downloads in https://marketplace.tracktion.com/downl ... /products/ .

[Titus Prefect]

Is there already a release date for version 1.0.4 ?
