@Minijackson:matrix.orgMinijackson the usefulness of the musnix flakes itself comes from its outputs, which you can look at by doing nix flake show github:musnix/musnix 21:12:15
@Minijackson:matrix.orgMinijackson

which gives:

github:musnix/musnix/6eb5c1714fbb7622b7270be78243365f9c55c9cb
├───nixosModule: NixOS module
└───nixosModules
    └───musnix: NixOS module
21:12:36
@Minijackson:matrix.orgMinijackson * you can add this input by adding near the top inputs.musnix.url = "github:musnix/musnix";, and adding musnix to the arguments of the outputs function. 21:13:17
@Minijackson:matrix.orgMinijackson so you're interested in either musnix.nixosModule and musnix.nixosModules.musnix 21:13:30
@Minijackson:matrix.orgMinijackson (nixosModule was deprecated for nixosModules.default, so I suggest using the second one) 21:13:53
@Minijackson:matrix.orgMinijackson so, in your nixosSystem call, you can add in your modules / imports the expression musnix.nixosModules.musnix 21:14:27
@Minijackson:matrix.orgMinijackson
{
  description = "...";

  inputs.nixpkgs.url = "...";
  inputs.musnix.url = "github:musnix/musnix";

  outputs = { self, nixpkgs, musnix }: {
    nixosConfigurations."myConfig" = nixpkgs.lib.nixosSystem {
      system = "x86_64-linux";

      modules = [
        musnix.nixosModules.musnix
        # ...
      ];
    };
  };
}

@alejandrosame:matrix.org@alejandrosame:matrix.org Minijackson: Thank you very much for detailing the mechanisms! I'll try this tomorrow again and see what knowledge gaps I still have :) 21:19:52
@Minijackson:matrix.orgMinijacksonI agree, we're missing a lot of flakes documentation in the NixOS/nixpkgs manual21:20:27
@Minijackson:matrix.orgMinijacksonor even an in-depth tutorial21:20:33
@Minijackson:matrix.orgMinijackson(well this is a new/experimental feature)21:20:51

@alejandrosame:matrix.org@alejandrosame:matrix.org Turns out I wasn't that far off. It seems I simply was confused by not seeing any update on max-user-freq values. 13:45:26

@heartman:matrix.orgThomas Heartman (he/him)Hey! 🙋 I'm just getting back into audio production (first time on NixOS). I've found a number of free synths packaged into nixpkgs, but I haven't been able to find u-he's Zebralette or Tyrell N6. Do you know if they're available somewhere? If not, would any of you have a derivation for them or be able to help me write one? 🙏17:10:15

@ckie:ckie.devckie (they/them) (in case its still auth-gated, single result; this) 17:37:43
@heartman:matrix.orgThomas Heartman (he/him)Oh, sick! Thank you so much 😄17:41:41

I had to do some minor changes (update to the latest version), but it seems to have worked. For reference, here's what I ended up with:

{ stdenv, libuuid, libxcb, expat, gtk3, glib }:

stdenv.mkDerivation {
  pname = "Zebralette-mini-Zebra";
  version = "2.9.3";
  src = builtins.fetchurl {
    url = "https://dl.u-he.com/releases/Zebra2_293_12092_Linux.tar.xz";
    sha256 = "sha256:1imn0a1pjgqihcms86m7wblc9fifmc2l9xczykl8c0bkzw883xpx";
  };
  dontBuild = true;
  sourceRoot = "Zebra2-12092";

  installPhase = ''
    mkdir -p $out/lib/vst
    cp -r Zebra2/* $out/lib
    ln -f $out/lib/Zebra2.64.so $out/lib/vst/Zebra2.64.so
  '';

  postFixup = ''
    patchelf \
      --set-rpath ${expat}/lib:${libxcb}/lib:${libuuid.out}/lib \
      $out/lib/vst/Zebra2.64.so
    patchelf \
      --set-interpreter $(cat $NIX_CC/nix-support/dynamic-linker) \
      --set-rpath ${gtk3}/lib:${glib.out}/lib \
      $out/lib/dialog.64
  '';
}

However, when trying to run the plugins (in Bitwig), I'm getting these messages:

However, when trying to run the plugins (in Bitwig), I'm getting the above error (Installation issue: no GUI resources. Please run the installer again). Does that sound familiar?

17:50:22
@ckie:ckie.devckie (they/them)nope, never touched the Actual Thing just did my usual search :P17:51:18
@ckie:ckie.devckie (they/them) maybe LD_DEBUG=libs and/or strace | grep dlopen 17:51:36
@ckie:ckie.devckie (they/them) * maybe LD_DEBUG=libs 17:51:48
@heartman:matrix.orgThomas Heartman (he/him) Cool; I'll try that! ... How do I do that? Is that in the derivation? Also interesting thing to note: the synth seems to be working, there's just no GUI. That said, not being able to change presets or twist any knobs does make it kinda useless for now. 17:56:57
@ckie:ckie.devckie (they/them)oh no, just an env var when you run it!17:57:18
@heartman:matrix.orgThomas Heartman (he/him)Right! When I run the DAW, that is?17:57:31
@ckie:ckie.devckie (they/them)oh, that's going to be a lot more noisy then17:57:40
