[Linuxsampler-devel] Ardour3 + linuxsampler plugin

[Edward D. <di...@um...>]

I'm trying to get the linuxsampler plugin working with session state
restoration working with Ardour3.  That is, if create an Ardour3
session with the linuxsampler plugin loaded with some sample file
loaded, that this sample file be re-loaded when you restart the
Ardour3 session.  As I understand it this is supposed to be working at
least for gig and sf2 files.   

Someone on the Ardour list said I need to recompile with the latest
lilv code to make this work.  So I did the following:

o built the entire drobilla-lad SVN 3982 (this includes lilv) 
o built libgig, linuxsampler, qsampler, lscp SVN 2314
o built ardour3 SVN 11501

however, reloading of gig, sf2 files still does not work...

Get some promising looking messages from Ardour like this from saving
a session which has been created a midi track with linuxsampler plugin
and loading a gig file:

LV2 LinuxSampler has state interface
NEW DIR: /mdkhome/sound/recording/ardour3/PianoLive/plugins/126/state1
Saved LV2 state to
/mdkhome/sound/recording/ardour3/PianoLive/plugins/126/state1

But when you start Ardour and reload the session the gig is not
reloaded. I do get 2 of these:

Loading LV2 state from
/mdkhome/sound/recording/ardour3/PianoLive/plugins/126/state1/state.ttl

which sound promising, but no sample loading starts.  I have to start
QSampler and reload the samples.

Anyone know if the if and how the linuxsampler plugin can be made to
work with state restoration?
