Hi, noobie here, I'm a Linux user who is struggling severely to get .so files to run in LMMS, according to (https://docs.lmms.io/user-manual/instruments/vestige) VeSTige can run .so files, and yet the .so files I have moved into the lmms/plugins/vst directory don't show up! And I've tried using Carla, but that just breaks LMMS for some reason, making window ui buggy. I need help and very much do not wish to have to use wine.
I'm not able to reproduce that issue.
I use the built-in file browser and navigate to .vst (where my *.so files are located).
There, I drag an *.so file into LMMS's song-editor, and vestige auto-loads.
I got xhip.so and helm.so to work (both synthesizers).
On the downside, there's a bug which doesn't allow the VST window to close when I click the close box.
I use an OS tool to force the window closed (usually used to force an entire program to quit to the desktop), but of course this isn't ideal.
Personally, I am using a recent "Nightly" appImage version.
I don't know how else to help except to say that sometimes *.so files can't be found unless you set their "execute" permission to true (in the "file properties" window of your desktop environment).
If you are new to music and DAW perhaps Rookie-guide can be for you. Link in signature.

Yes, but do you use the version that has this upgrade?
You need
https://github.com/LMMS/lmms/releases/d ... 4.AppImage
Eg Alpha.2.
You find your version in the tittle-line of song-editor.
Let us know the outcome :)
