INSTALL VST IN RENOISE 64 BIT
Some vst plugins might crash if the Visual C++ Redistributable dlls are not present in /home/username/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32 for 64 bit vst's and /home/username/.wine/drive_c/windows/syswow64 for 32 bit vst's, and then overridden in the winecfg Libraries tab Quite a few vst plugins rely on the Visual C++ Redistributable dlls msvcr120.dll msvcr140.dll msvcp120.dll msvcp140.dll etc Quite a few plugins need winetricks corefonts installed for fonts.Ī large number of vst plugin crashes/problems can be basically narrowed down to the following dll's and then worked around by overriding/disabling them. usr/bin/wine can be a symbolic link to /opt/wine-staging/bin/wine (for wine staging) for example. LinVst looks for wine in /usr/bin and if there isn't a /usr/bin/wine then that will probably cause problems. If a LinVst version error pops up then LinVst probably needs to be reinstalled to /usr/bin and the older (renamed) linvst.so files in the vst dll folder need to be overwritten (using linvstconvert). If window resizing does not work, then after a resize the UI needs to be closed and then reopened for the new window size to take effect. If new vst plugins are added to a folder, then just run linvstconvert again on that folder.īinary LinVst-X releases are available at Common Problems/Possible Fixes
INSTALL VST IN RENOISE WINDOWS
Start up the linux DAW and point it to scan the folder containing the windows vst's. Point linvstconvert to the folder containing the windows vst's and hit the Start (Convert) button. Start linvstconvert (in the convert folder) and then select the linvst.so file.

It's also possible with most plugins to make a folder and install the windows vst's into it. The vst's will probably be installed by default to a Wine folder, something like ~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Steinberg/VSTPlugins (which is similar to where they are installed on Windows). To kill the server (when no plugins are loaded) get the pid of the lin-vst-serverĪnd then use the pid to kill the lin-vst-serverĬopy all of the lin-vst-serverxxxx files (files with lin-vst-server in their names) to /usr/bin. The LinVst-X server can be killed when no plugins are currently loaded. The LinVst-X server can be prestarted (before the Daw) by entering into Terminal /usr/bin/lin-vst-server-x.exe or wine "/usr/bin/" The LinVst-X server is first started (after a boot) when a plugin is first loaded and after that the LinVst-X server continues to run and further plugin loading can occur faster than with LinVst.

See the convert folder Notes on how to make the linvstx.so renaming conversion utilities. LinVst-X usage is basically the same as LinVst except that the file to be renamed to the vst dll name is linvstx.so (rather than linvst.so for LinVst).

LinVst-X is also probably the version to use for best results when using Daw Automation. It's best to use plugins that already run with LinVst and/or use TestVst to test how a plugin might run under Wine.įor Waveform, disable sandbox option for plugins. Plugins running in one process are not sandboxed, so if one plugin crashes then the whole lot might crash. Plugin instances can communicate with each other (which is not possible with LinVst), for example, Voxengo GlissEQ instances on different tracks simultaneously displaying the track spectrums and Kontakt instances on different tracks that use the same library not having to load samples for each new instance etc. LinVst-X runs vst plugins in a single Wine process so plugins that communicate with each other or plugins that can use shared samples between instances will be able to communicate with their other instances. LinVst-X can coexist with LinVst, but it's best to move or copy the plugin dlls to a separate folder (which should be possible for most vst plugins) and then use linvstxconvert on the vst dlls in the folder and then set that folder as a vst search path in the Daw. LinVst-X (the X stands for Extra) adds support for Windows vst plugins to be used in Linux vst capable DAW's.
