The lv2 plugin is also a dynamically linked library... yeah, most of them are | 09:17:14 |

| @adham-omran:matrix.org | not from Nix | 09:17:44 |
 rfvizarra | This is the lv2 from Pianoteq's package | 09:18:00 |

This is the lv2 from Pianoteq's package So, just the Pianoteq 8 STAGE.lv2 directory with the .so plugin? | 09:18:26 |

| rfvizarra | I downloaded Pianoteq for Linux from their website | 09:19:12 |
| rfvizarra | that package contains the lv2 and the executable | 09:19:22 |
| bandithedoge | you can directly patch the .so to use nix paths, see "manual method" in the wiki article i linked | 09:20:36 |

I downloaded Pianoteq for Linux from their website Are you attempting to load it in reaper? | 09:22:00 |

Are you attempting to load it in reaper? Not yet, I was having a look at the lv2. Do you think reaper will provide the missing lilbraries? | 09:23:07 |

Hi
I'm kind of new to NixOS. I'm trying to use NixOS to run a few programs that I use to play piano. One of them is Pianoteq. I've seen there is a Pianoteq package (https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/tree/nixos-24.05/pkgs/applications/audio/pianoteq) but I cannot install it adding it to systemPackages, homemanager or nix-shell.
Am I missing something? How can I install Pianoteq's package in Nixos?
I'm not sure if this is the right channel to ask, if not please accept my apologies. OK I've taken a look at the package. You have to specify the version you want.
For the trial try
pianoteq.stage-trial
I've just tried it in a shell and it works | 09:42:25 |
| Rampoina | the other versions require you to set the environment variables for the modart user and password | 09:42:47 |
| rfvizarra | wow!!! cool | 09:42:57 |
| Rampoina | In reply to @rampoina:matrix.org
the other versions require you to set the environment variables for the modart user and password those are NIX_MODARTT_USERNAME and NIX_MODARTT_PASSWORD | 09:43:25 |
| rfvizarra | It works for me too!! thank you!! | 09:44:30 |
| Rampoina | take a look here https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/c0d0be00d4ecc4b51d2d6948e37466194c1e6c51/pkgs/applications/audio/pianoteq/default.nix#L224 to know the name of the other versions | 09:44:40 |
| Rampoina | In reply to @rfvizarra:matrix.org
It works for me too!! thank you!! sure no problem, for some reason the package doesn't appear in search.nixos.org which is weird | 09:45:17 |
| rfvizarra | I think I also have to learn nix to be able to understand how to make things work when the obvious path doesn't work | 09:46:02 |
| Rampoina | pianoteq is great, I wish we had a FOSS version (even if it was just one piano without many parameters) | 09:47:01 |
| rfvizarra | Also, I'm going to explore the DAW way to get advantage of other things like mixing | 09:47:05 |
| rfvizarra | It sounds great. In the latest version they included a pack for a Bösendorfer | 09:48:32 |
| rfvizarra | I'll probably get it in the next sale | 09:48:44 |
| Rampoina | I'm not sure how you would specify the variables to add it as a system package, I'd have to research that | 09:52:12 |
| Rampoina | I don't have any pianoteq licenses though so I can't try it :P | 09:52:27 |
| Rampoina | maybe just setting them as global environment variables | 09:53:44 |
| Rampoina | ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ | 09:53:45 |
