[dssi~ trivial_synth.so]

tried [dssi~ trivial_synth] ? . LADSPAs and maybe DSSIs tend to have a shortname which doesnt always match up with the filename. load up Om-Synth and peep the 'add plugin' dialog ...or try 'listplugins' command in a shell..

Hi,

I really need to fix the helpfile for this don't I..

[dssi~] has now been modified to include the loader code provided with [plugin~]. The inlet/outlet structure has also been modified for [plugin~] compatibility.

Therefore if you do:

|listplugins( | [dssi~]

You should get a list of all plugins in the standard directories, and the libraries they are contained in.

I get no output. :( Note that I set LADSPA_PATH and DSSI_PATH env vars correctly. It seems dssi~ doesn't want to see my DSSI plugins.... What information can I provide to help recognize the problem?

you can then load a plugin with either

[dssi~ <plugin label> <instances>] where the label will be something like sine_faaa or trivial_synth

or:

[dssi~ <path to library>:<plugin label> <instances>]

e.g.

[dssi~ /usr/local/lib/dssi/trivial_synth.so:trivial_synth]

This method is faster, because it doesn't search through all your plugins.

You can also do:

|plug <path to library>:<plugin label> <instances>( | [dssi~]

or

|plug <plugin label> <instances>( | [dssi~]

To load a plugin after the object has been loaded, but this feature is somewhat experimental.

anyone got dssi~ running fine?

I just compiled it, and I can't get it to load any DSSI instrument. even the predefined insturments from the dssi~'s help patch (trivial_synth.so)

note: I READ the README. note-2: I specify the full path to the DSSI plugin (i.e.: /usr/lib/dssi/trivial_synth.so)

it keep saying load error.

It's actually:

|listplugins( | [dssi~] | [print]

thanks. it worked. however the help file is not updated, so I don't know how to use the external (plugin~ help makes my pd crash!)
