1) USB MIDI connection 2) LADSPA necessary?

Post by Ludovico » Mon Oct 01, 2012 7:10 pm

Hello,

another newbee having 2 questions:

*** 1*** Having successfully installed LS on my "left" computer (XP, "E-DSP MIDI Port [DC00]") I am having difficulties on my "right" computer - screens are side by side - (XP, USB MIDI adapter called "USB-Audiogerät" by XP).

Loading samples is ok, using Fantasia "MIDI Keyboard" is ok, external MIDI input doesn't work.

Other MIDI programs like "MIDI-Monitor" and "Hauptwerk" do receive MIDI signals and are working fine, LS does not.

Comparing .lscp files shows the following:

"left":
CREATE MIDI_INPUT_DEVICE MME
SET MIDI_INPUT_PORT_PARAMETER 0 0 NAME='Port 0'
SET MIDI_INPUT_PORT_PARAMETER 0 0 PORT='E-DSP MIDI Port [DC00]'

"right":
CREATE MIDI_INPUT_DEVICE MME
SET MIDI_INPUT_PORT_PARAMETER 0 0 NAME='Port 0'
SET MIDI_INPUT_PORT_PARAMETER 0 0 PORT=''

What shall I do?

*** 2 ***
"right":
Could not scan LADSPA effects: library path 'C:\Programme\ladspa' doesn't exist

- which is true for "left" as well, but there I am glad to read: "Registered internal effects: 3"

Is this LADSPA important?

Thank you for your kind help

As a linux user I cannot help you with your Windows midi setup, but I know about Ldaspa. Ldaspa is an open-source plugin standard (like VST) which was developed for Linux. I think the error message is harmless - it means you do not have a Ladspa plugins folder. I don't quite understand this message since I am not aware that Linuxsampler can load ladspa plugins, but maybe it can in Windows.

SET MIDI_INPUT_PORT_PARAMETER 0 0 PORT=''

Is empty. Create a midi device.
