Windows Laptop for Hise

[d.healey]

Most of my videos for the past few months have been recorded on a virtual machine.

If you really want to buy a new system I recommend getting a system you can setup as a Proxmox server to run virtual machines. I'm using an Intel NUC, but there are cheaper options with more CPU/RAM.

VMs are also very useful when it comes to customer service, you can spin up a system with roughly the same configuration as the user and that can often help to narrow down system specific issues.

Setting up a VM? Or Proxmox specifically?

Yep, it's just like using real hardware.

They'd be saved in the VMs virtual drive. You can create a shared drive between your real system and virtual one to transfer files, or some VM software allows you to drag n drop files between the host and VM.

You need to compile HISE from source before you export your project.

yup got it!

i can follow this video for installing hise on the vm ?

[d.healey]

@xxx Yes, but that video will be deleted soon as I had to rework the part about fftw which has changed recently in HISE. New video will be uploaded soon.

Hi Danny, Are you able to get Hise and Faust working on Parallels?

Hise works fine for me until I try using the faust node, then it crashes completely

[dannytaurus]

@xxx I haven't touched Faust yet I'm afraid.

Maybe check David's new Bootcamp videos on Windows compilation? Not sure if he mentions Faust though.
