 @bandithedoge:matrix.org | oh i'm dumb | 10:13:45 |
| @bandithedoge:matrix.org | labs *is* also a bunch of kontakt libraries | 10:14:19 |
 @adham-omran:matrix.org | No, you aren't dumb mate, how could you know that you didn't even know the library | 10:14:21 |

labs *is* also a bunch of kontakt libraries It is in format as far as I know but not in loading, there's another project, I think PianoBook that does that | 10:14:55 |
| @adham-omran:matrix.org | https://www.pianobook.co.uk/ | 10:15:09 |
| @adham-omran:matrix.org | Honestly I love how available these are but they are windows-tied | 10:15:25 |
| @bandithedoge:matrix.org | try kontakt in yabridge then | 10:16:17 |
| @bandithedoge:matrix.org | you might need the offline installer though since licensing is weird though | 10:16:45 |
| @bandithedoge:matrix.org | drm on wine moment | 10:17:05 |

No, you aren't dumb mate, how could you know that you didn't even know the library nah, i just didn't read the whole page | 10:17:37 |

try kontakt in yabridge then I don't think it is possible to use LABS..
https://spitfireaudio.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/5546747372061-LABS-FAQ
Check the HOW DO I ADD LABS INTO KONTAKT? section | 10:17:42 |
| @bandithedoge:matrix.org | huh | 10:18:51 |
| @bandithedoge:matrix.org | well if it's in the kontakt format then there must be a way to load it in kontakt, right? | 10:19:26 |

well if it's in the kontakt format then there must be a way to load it in kontakt, right? Doesn't look like it | 10:41:13 |
| @adham-omran:matrix.org | Maybe I just need to bite the bullet and go full VM | 10:51:20 |
| @bandithedoge:matrix.org | that's what i did once i figured out how to passthrough my haswell igpu | 10:52:36 |
| @bandithedoge:matrix.org | not a fun experience but worth it | 10:53:03 |
| @adham-omran:matrix.org | I don't have a second GPU, I have an iGPU but I don't think I'll pass it, GXL works just fine | 10:54:30 |

not a fun experience but worth it What makes it not fun for you? | 10:54:38 |

Has anyone here experimented with usb passthrough to a windows vm for audio production? Yes, it's terrible. I had way better luck just doing PCIe passthrough of a USB controller. | 11:00:21 |
| Brian Hechinger | This was trying to get my Maschine talking to its software on windows. USB passthrough was extremely unreliable. | 11:03:15 |
| @bandithedoge:matrix.org | In reply to @adham-omran:matrix.org
What makes it not fun for you? haswell doesn't support gvt-g (virtualized igpu) so passing the whole graphics controller is a little more involved | 11:05:45 |
| @bandithedoge:matrix.org | it's technically unsupported and my setup is held together with hopes and dreams but it works | 11:07:04 |
| @bandithedoge:matrix.org | i'm planning on doing a proper gpu passthrough setup once i have any sort of income and i'll look into making an opencore-based macos vm | 11:10:12 |

i'm planning on doing a proper gpu passthrough setup once i have any sort of income and i'll look into making an opencore-based macos vm I stopped with passthrough because
- My games work with Proton now
- Opencore Macos vms are a dying breed at this point
Honestly the dream died for passthrough, which is good and bad

haswell doesn't support gvt-g (virtualized igpu) so passing the whole graphics controller is a little more involved That is actually pretty interesting | 11:11:51 |
| Brian Hechinger | I also stopped passthrough because of the proton thing. I don't care about MacOS, but zero NKS support on linux means a VM is the only way to go with the NI stack if you want to use their controllers (and why would you use their software if you didn't) | 11:13:41 |

Thanks for letting me know and sharing your experience | 11:30:51 |
