Minijackson | IIRC, this means that your plugins installed through users.users.mindtree.packages won't be found, since you don't have the path /etc/profiles/per-user/$USER/lib/lv2 | 07:15:48 |
Minijackson | but it should work for globally installed plugins, or plugins installed through nix-env | 07:16:28 |
mindtree | In reply to @Minijackson:matrix.org IIRC, this means that your plugins installed through users.users.mindtree.packages won't be found, since you don't have the path /etc/profiles/per-user/$USER/lib/lv2 Ahhh that could be it! Cheers | 07:17:06 |
@alejandrosame:matrix.org | I'm very confused about how to add musnix as a flake and later call musnix.enable on my configuration.nix file.
Does anybody have a lonk to a working example so I can see the proper setup?
The repo is not too clear on this for a newbie that's still figuring the Nix ecosystem. | 18:02:54 |

Minijackson | so, musnix is another repository containing Nix files, which you can track using inputs, this allows your configuration to use a fixed version of that repo, while allowing manual upgrades | 21:11:04 |
Minijackson | you can add this input by adding near the top inputs.musnix.url = "github:musnix/musnix"; | 21:11:28 |
Minijackson | 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 | which gives:
github:musnix/musnix/6eb5c1714fbb7622b7270be78243365f9c55c9cb
├───nixosModule: NixOS module
└───nixosModules
└───musnix: NixOS module
| 21:12:36 |
Minijackson | * 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 | so you're interested in either musnix.nixosModule and musnix.nixosModules.musnix | 21:13:30 |
Minijackson | (nixosModule was deprecated for nixosModules.default, so I suggest using the second one) | 21:13:53 |
Minijackson | so, in your nixosSystem call, you can add in your modules / imports the expression musnix.nixosModules.musnix | 21:14:27 |
Minijackson | {
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 | 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 | I agree, we're missing a lot of flakes documentation in the NixOS/nixpkgs manual | 21:20:27 |
Minijackson | or even an in-depth tutorial | 21:20:33 |
Minijackson | (well this is a new/experimental feature) | 21:20:51 |

@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 |

Thomas 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 |

Thomas Heartman (he/him) | 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
'';

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