VST instruments and plugins will not work

[Douglas]

I have made a post about this before, but I never managed to get it to work, and many things have changed that may enable me to get it working now.

I moved my computer to the main floor, so it now has internet connection. This means I don't have to install things manually any more. apt-get has been giving me some trouble, but I should be able to work out any kinks that occur.

I have both wine and wine64 installed.

I upgraded to LMMS 1.1.3 (from 1.0.3). I have Vestige, but it still says that it is "not working for some reason blah blah stuff".

I am still using Debian, with KDE.

I have many, many VSTs in the form of DLLs. Opening them with Vestige gives me the error. I'm not sure how to get Synth1 (because the website was Japanese, and I could only find Windows and Mac versions), but that is not required, because I'm certain that at least one of my twenty-something VSTs (all confirmed to work with Linux) will work.

If any other information is needed, just ask. Using LMMS for 5 hours a day for 3 years, I feel I may be on the brink of composing professionally (my goal is Monstercat), but being restricted only to whatever comes with LMMS is really slowing me down. Does anybody know how to fix this problem?

Thank you!

EDIT: In case it is relevant, I did get lmms-vst-full from KXStudio.

This might be the best place to ask for help.

Its not working for some reason is not enough for us to help you.

Have you put the vst in the right folder ?

Have you put the vst in the right folder ?

Eg are all the VST dll's inside the folder you have defined as your VST-folder in Settings?

If not, browse to the folder and restart lmms

@musikbear Ah, I understand what happened. imgur.com is blocked for me, so I had to use a different website. It's because of the website that they won't display. You can still view them by right-clicking on them and clicking "open in new tab" or whatever your browser says.

Sorry.

No there is nothing to click on. There are no links! Just the word 'image' :)
If you want to post images, please follow the guide i linked you to

Here's my last attempt. My dad blocked pretty much every useful image sharing website (like imgur, imageshack, even 500px), so this is pretty much my only solution.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

FINALLY!!!!!

...ish.

I fixed the no VST issue by running the Windows version of LMMS with Wine. But, as always, there are other problems. I'll post them in a separate thread.

Three years of working, and I'm finally making progress!

Both thing sound really positive :) Really good thinking to decide to post new issues in new threads! Thanks! :idea:
