Should be an easy fix. I’m not super familiar with linux audio stuff yet, still lots to learn! i’ll try to get those adjusted for beta 5.

Looks like I can ship on glibc 2.35 & ALSA 1.2.6.1 pretty easily. I'll get that into my CI setup, and beta 5 should be runnable for you! That should be good for Ubuntu 22.04, Debian 12, Fedora 37 and anything else newer than those.

Cool, thanks for investigating, and glad it isn't looking too difficult! I'll keep an eye out for the next beta.

I know Linux can be intimidating: it's too easy to get caught up in the tribal wars over "my distribution is better than yours" or "you have to use this new packing system". But for plugins, you don't need deep system integration, you just need the user to put a binary file in the right place, so you can avoid most of that. U-he have been shipping Linux builds for years with this no-nonsense approach (they're still compiling for glibc 2.28!)

I didn't realise Beta 4 was out.

The standalone here always launches at 150% scaling. Even after setting it back to 100%. The plugins don't exhibit this.

A weird side effect is that this also affects the size of some other apps here in Gnome 50. After running the Noemi standalone they will launch at 150% their normal size, even if they don't have any scaling options. I can reset this by toggling the text-scaling-factor in dconf off and back on.

I noticed that all AUV3 plugins are ignored (message says "failed to load") when scanning for AudioUnit plugins since beta 3 (including beta 4). Previously most AUV3s scanned and loaded successfully. Is this by design? I'm also finding that some VST/AU plugins with midi capabilities do not show the Use as MIDI Effect check box (eg HY-MPS3 by HY-Plugins). Some plugins are also still crashing Noemi when loading (eg HoRNet HatefishRhyGenerator).

I get
Application error: a client-side exception has occurred while loading www.tweakbench.com (see the browser console for more information).

I've tried the URL in Firefox, Chrome and Safari.

The URL has changed since the alpha version. Try https://www.tweakbench.com/noemi.

@tweakbench, do you want to edit the first post in this thread and add the current link?
