rfvizarra | I'll investigate it | 09:54:06 |
Rampoina | there's probably some way to override the package and set the variables there | 09:54:14 |
rfvizarra | In reply to @rampoina:matrix.org I don't have any pianoteq licenses though so I can't try it :P They usually have a sale in August. If you play piano I think it is a good investment. I have the most basic one | 09:55:05 |
rfvizarra | One thing that I don't like is that they limit the number of activation in the same computer | 09:55:39 |
Rampoina | I play the piano but I have a real (upright) one ;) | 09:55:46 |
Rampoina | and I'm also a bit of a purist regarding free software :P | 09:55:58 |
rfvizarra | That one is better for sure!! hahaha | 09:56:01 |
rfvizarra | In reply to @rampoina:matrix.org and I'm also a bit of a purist regarding free software :P So Ardour is you DAW of choice? | 09:57:08 |
Rampoina | I don't use DAWs much but the few times I have, yes. | 09:57:44 |
rfvizarra | In reply to @rampoina:matrix.org I don't use DAWs much but the few times I have, yes. I do prefer free software, but there are some areas where there is not much choice | 10:00:31 |
rfvizarra | I bought Pianoteq because It works great and they support linux on x86 and arm | 10:01:06 |
rfvizarra | If it was Windows only I wouldn't have bought it | 10:01:37 |

there are some areas where there is not much choice
I agree here, the choice of sampled instruments is disappointing...
Spitfire, NI and others have no native Linux port and even Wine struggles immensely and does not run them.
| 10:03:03 |
Rampoina | I just use a piano soundfont | 10:03:03 |
Rampoina | Salamander grand piano for example | 10:03:08 |
rfvizarra | In reply to @rampoina:matrix.org Salamander grand piano for example Is it good? | 10:03:40 |

Unfortunately I can not even run them under a virtual machine, the headroom is too much for real time audio
I am considering a mini-pc to run Windows on and stream with Moonlight

Rampoina | In reply to @rfvizarra:matrix.org Is it good? https://sfzinstruments.github.io/pianos/salamander/ | 10:04:04 |
Rampoina | it's not bad | 10:04:07 |
Rampoina | pianoteq is better but it's OK, good enough | 10:04:37 |

i had some success with kontakt and toontrack plugins under yabridge | 10:05:24 |
bandithedoge | namely superior drummer and ezbass | 10:05:46 |
bandithedoge | i imagine ezkeys would work well too | 10:05:59 |
adham | In reply to @bandithedoge:matrix.org i had some success with kontakt and toontrack plugins under yabridge Ever since Native Access 2 came out it's been bad | 10:06:22 |
bandithedoge | also tal-sampler is really good | 10:07:31 |
rfvizarra | adham: The Pianoteq lv2 loads fine in reaper, the missing libraries doesn't seem to be a problem | 10:29:20 |
rfvizarra | (I tried with the downloaded package from the vendor) | 10:30:12 |
rfvizarra | so good news! | 10:30:22 |
rfvizarra | It also loads in Carla | 10:30:32 |
