<span style="font-size: 20px">> Another DISTRHO-Ports update</span><br/> |

Hello again, another release of the |
|
|
|
<a href="https://github.com/DISTRHO/DISTRHO-Ports" target="_blank">DISTRHO-Ports</a> project is here.<br/> |
|
|
|
DISTRHO is an open-source project with the goal of making cross-platform audio plugins and GNU/Linux + LV2 ports.<br/> |
|
|
|
This release relates to the GNU/Linux and LV2 ports. |
|
|
|
</p> |
|
|
|
<p> |
|
|
|
Just like last time, this is yet again a more packager-focused release rather than user-focused.<br/> |
|
|
|
The biggest changes this time relate to bringing |
|
|
|
<a href="https://github.com/DISTRHO/JUCE" target="_blank">DISTRHO's JUCE fork</a> |
|
|
|
up to date with upstream, together with updating the |
|
|
|
<a href="https://github.com/DISTRHO/DISTRHO-Ports/tree/master/libs/juce-current/source/modules/juce_audio_plugin_client/LV2" target="_blank">LV2 wrapper</a>.<br/> |
|
|
|
Additionally, macOS and Windows support was fixed and tested to work, at least for LV2 plugins.<br/> |
|
|
|
(most of these plugins already have VST2 or AU for those 2 platforms, so the focus in on LV2 here) |
|
|
|
</p> |
|
|
|
<p> |
|
|
|
A new plugin was added, |
|
|
|
<a href="https://github.com/Chowdhury-DSP/CHOW" target="_blank">CHOW</a>, |
|
|
|
but mostly only because I required a fresh plugin to test the new JUCE codebase.<br/> |
|
|
|
Do note that new plugins can now build as LV2, VST2 and VST3 for GNU/Linux, which is nice to see.<br/> |
|
|
|
I want to create a little article/tutorial explaining how to port existing plugins into this project, but that will come at a later date.<br/> |
|
|
|
</p> |
|
|
|
<p> |
|
|
|
For now, the intention is to have all the ground-work needed for fresh plugins and LV2 ports.<br/> |
|
|
|
This ties up nicely with the upcoming |
|
|
|
<a href="https://github.com/DISTRHO/PawPaw" target="_blank">PawPaw</a> |
|
|
|
project, as we will soon have all these ports working as LV2 in macOS and Windows.<br/> |
|
|
|
</p> |
|
|
|
<p> |
|
|
|
Because everyone loves changelogs, here it is for the full changes since last release 5 months ago: |
|
|
|
</p> |
|
|
|
<ul> |
|
|
|
<li>Add CHOW plugin (used to test updated JUCE)</li> |
|
|
|
<li>Include new and legacy JUCE in source code (legacy JUCE will only receive bug-fixes)</li> |
|
|
|
<li>Rebase DISTRHO-Ports patches against JUCE6 codebase, available in |
|
|
|
<a href="https://github.com/DISTRHO/DISTRHO-Ports/tree/master/libs/juce-current/patches" target="_blank">libs/juce-current/patches</a></li> |
|
|
|
<li>Fix LV2 wrapper to build against latest JUCE</li> |
|
|
|
<li>Fix build for macOS, including universal builds</li> |
|
|
|
<li>Fix build for Windows (using mingw)</li> |
|
|
|
<li>General cleanup to build system</li> |
|
|
|
</ul> |
|
|
|
<p> |
|
|
|
There are no pre-compiled binaries for this release, though the plugins are fully up-to-date in the KXStudio repositories.<br/> |
