 sjfloat | i.e. for flakes and docs | 12:22:50 |
 Chris McDonough | i would certainly be interested in a vst controller windows-ui thing that mostly worked... i have been far too lazy to try any of that, i know how fraught it is | 14:35:32 |
 eyes1238 | I just made a little state hole in my otherwise pure nix config, allowing me to install plugins that can't be packaged with nix into my user's wine prefix | 17:12:16 |
| eyes1238 | I think I'm going to make a flake packaging some plugins that aren't already on nixpkgs | 17:12:56 |
| sjfloat | I'd like to see what you come up with with. | 17:14:05 |
|  @lily:lily.flowers joined the room. | 17:59:03 |
| eyes1238 | https://github.com/the-argus/audio-plugins-nix | 18:42:32 |
| eyes1238 | currently has a grand total of one (1) working package | 18:42:49 |
| sjfloat | Is that youra? | 18:45:17 |
| eyes1238 | yep, just threw it together | 18:45:33 |
| sjfloat | * Is that yours? | 18:45:35 |
| sjfloat | Nice! | 18:45:42 |
|  Yuu Yin joined the room. | 20:18:00 |
| Yuu Yin | sjfloat: i saw you commented on https://discourse.nixos.org/t/audio-plugins-no-longer-detected-after-switching-to-nix-2-4-flakes/17177/3. i did not investigate further. there are packages that do environment.extraOutputsToInstall, so i thought i could to that to the plugins in their derivations themselves or in a NixOS config | 20:21:36 |

| Yuu Yin | i think i was trying waveform11 and faced that issue. not sure if in reaper the issue happens as well | 20:22:51 |
| Yuu Yin | sjfloat: which daw you use? | 20:23:14 |
| Yuu Yin | i was packaging this daw https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/145153. it is interesting that it won't support existing plugins protocols and prefers built-in plugins in its own open protocol iirc | 20:25:40 |
| sjfloat | I use several, mainly Ardour. But it applies to several other apps. Each tends to be looking in a particular place for their plugins. Some provide environmental means of specifying alteratives. | 20:26:08 |
| sjfloat | Not familiar with Stargate -- looks cool. | 20:27:50 |
