ASAP - First release

[fdsdb]

Hi,

I have installed them by executing the script “linux-install.sh”, that is from a terminal with instruction “bash linux-install.sh”. This script simply copy the single plugins folders into hidden folder ~/.vst3.

Then I have started Reaper, imported an audio file and used them as whatever else plugin. Of course to use them in full mode I have donwloaded from Ircam forumnet site the activation-key and followed the procedure for activating the plugins (I have annual Forum Subscription).

I hope I have been clear. All installation procedures are explained also in the manual, at PDF page 2.

I have tested automation, too, it runs, the only problem I have until now is some crash in using surface filters, but I think it depends by my hardware configuration and by use of Gnome3 as deslkop manager.

Good Luck :-), ciao

Hello,

Then I have started Reaper, imported an audio file and used them as whatever else plugin.

And you can use any VST3 host such as Carla, Ardour or Pd with vstplugin~ (of course, the Surface Filter can be only loaded with a host that supports ARA extension)

I have tested automation, too, it runs, the only problem I have until now is some crash in using surface filters, but I think it depends by my hardware configuration and by use of Gnome3 as deslkop manager.

Can you send me the crash log and/or further information about when it happened and what you did? Linux feedback is really welcome. Thank you!

Hi,

Thank you for Linux support, very appreciated.

Reaper freezes if I create a filter surface and then I move it inside plugin sonogram, both using mouse and using parameter changing (width, start, end and so on). After freeze I must restart Reaper. Unfortunately it seems to me that no logs are created, I have searched also into /var/log, but I think there was nothing relevant.

Here are my computer data:

• 8 Gb RAM
• CPU: Intel® Core™ i3-8100 CPU @ 3.60GHz × 4
• Graphci card: AMD® Cedar
• HD 1 Tb (no SSD)
• System: Fedora 32
• GNOME 3.36.9
• Graphic system X11

Thanks in advance, ciao

Thank you! I’ll try to find the issue.

congrats on the release!

on authenticating I get directed to the portal from the plugins and am logged in but get an infinite wait after clicking the button – is anyone else experiencing this? and anything I may need to do different? I’m running latest stable Chrome browser on MacOS

I just tried it and after waiting for a few seconds, I received an email but there might be an issue on the Ircam Forum server. @pellerin and @piccarreta can you check this issue?

[pellerin]

Hi @SmokeDoepferEveryday
If I understand well, an infinite waiting occurs when clicking the Download button, right?
If yes, could you please retry?
If no, where does it happen precisely?

[SmokeDoepferEveryday]

I click the “get authentication key” from the plugin – then the issue occurs on the webpage after clicking the authorisation button:

Hi @SmokeDoepferEveryday ,

Thank you for your feedback, we sent you a DM regarding the ASAP authorization key

The video presentation of ASAP and Partiels of the Ircam Forum Workshops 2022 is now accessible to all without restriction!

thanks!

may sound foolish but how does the sidechain feature function on the plugins?

have read the Docs and watch the introduction footage but not entirely sure how to make use apologies!

[guillot]

The Spectral Crossing plugin works like any plugin with a sidechain (such as a compressor for instance), there isn’t specific to the plugin. The sidechain setup depends on your DAW. You should easily find documentation and video tutorials on how to set up the sidechain on a track. If you encounter difficulties, tell me what is your DAW. I’ll try to find out how to do that.

[SmokeDoepferEveryday]

Thanks @guillot for Ableton Live – can’t seem to configure a path – how would you arrange it?

[guillot]

Considering you have 2 tracks named “Source” and “Sidechain”:

1 - Insert the Spectral Crossing plugin in the Source track
2 - In the Spectral Crossing plugin device view, select the Sidechain track in the sidechain menu

3 -Set the Output type of the Sidechain track to “Send Only” if you don’t want to hear it directly through the Master

And I guess, that’s it. I’m not a Live specialist but that’s how I would do it.

[SmokeDoepferEveryday]

ah right, of course! sorry I thought the chaining was done internally in the plugin – but once you set it in the DAW you can just initiate the SC mode

Thanks!
