HISE Compatibility with Windows 11 and Cubase 12

-p:{TEXT} sets the plugin type ('VST' | 'AU' | 'VST_AU' | 'AAX' | 'ALL' | 'VST2' | 'VST3' )

@d-healey My bash scripts are so fickle. Some days they work, other days they don't

Casey Kolb

@d-healey I think this type of command will only export either VST2 or VST3 depending on your preferences:

"$hise_exe_macos" export_ci "Presets/$hipFile.hip" -t:instrument -p:ALL -a:"x64"

You can run multiple commands one after another ;) https://github.com/davidhealey/sofiawoodwinds/blob/master/Packaging/OSX/build_mac.sh

I'll be posting a video soon demonstrating a script I use to build my plugins, installers, codesign, and notarize all in one go.

Casey Kolb

@d-healey Yup, this much I know.

That's the script I've already modified for my setup :) I just mean the "ALL" command would be helpful if it actually exported all the versions. Maybe it does?

d.healey

@Casey-Kolb Meh, just write a few extra lines and you get everything you need.

I've added a -p:VST23AU flag that builds every plugin except for AAX. Not only it's less code to type in the build script, but it also is 30-50% faster now because it can reuse some object files from the compilations.

because it can reuse some object files from the compilations.

Isn't that the same as with the previous build script if you don't run a clean command in between?

Nice!

I received a support ticket from a user who is using Cubase 12 on Windows 11. He can't seem to get any sound out of our plugin, standalone or VST, even after adjusting the audio driver and MIDI input settings. This is the first time we've encountered this issue, so I'm wondering if there is any known compatibility issues with HISE and Windows 11 / Cubase 12.

@Casey-Kolb Hi, One of my user just encountered the same problem. Did you manage to find what was causing this ?
(I'm only offering VST3 + I asked him to check that the samples were at the right place, and they are).

@Matt_SF Can you send him a standalone version to test?

Matt_SF

@d-healey yes, I just got his message today but I'll build it tomorrow to see if it works or not

Casey Kolb

@Matt_SF We were never able to resolve the issue, even with the VST3 version in Cubase 12,

We tried switching the audio drivers in the user's preferences, but that didn't fix anything. It's the only case we've ever had of this, so I'm still wrapping my brain around what could be going wrong. The standalone works fine on the user's machine.

Matt_SF

@Casey-Kolb Thank you for your response. I don't know how I'll be able to debug this one if you couldn't do it !
I'll try anyway and report back if I stumble upon a solution

d.healey

@Casey-Kolb @Matt_SF Have they tried in another host? Have they tried on another machine? What audio interface are they using?

Matt_SF

@d-healey I'll ask

Matt_SF

@Matt_SF
So I just compiled a standalone version of the plugin, adding to it "Settings", "MidiSource" and "MidiChannels" panels, and no problem on my computer (as expected).
I tried it first on my computer of course and it turns out that it's impossible to select the MIDI source or the MIDI channels, they are greyed out. Therefore I can't use my MIDI keyboard to play it but the sound is playing when I use the plugin's keyboard.

~~I compiled a simple SineGen standalone app to test this and the MIDI is working fine.~~

(The reported problem in Cubase is that the MIDI messages are not recognized or received by the plugin)

Matt_SF

...Another great moment of solitude for me as we say here...
Turns out the greying out of the options was caused by an error in my LAF script :man_facepalming: :man_facepalming: :man_facepalming:
The MIDI options does work.

So, I've sent the standalone version to my user to see how that goes. I'll wait for him to respond and I'll try to debug things up with him.

Dan Korneff

Ok... It's happening here too. Can't get my newly exported samplers to work on C12 PC. Standalone, Reaper, and PT all work properly.
PT not working either. I'm thinking routing matrix issue
