RNBO Compile DLL Crash (RNBO --> HISE)

[dannycouture]

Hey everyone,

I exported a chorus pedal from the Max RNBO guitar collection, but every time I get to the “Compile DSP Networks as DLL” step during migration, HISE crashes.

I’ve followed the steps from videos and forum posts as closely as I can, but I still can’t get past this crash. I’ve also tried using older versions of both Max and RNBO, but the issue still happens.

Has anyone run into this before or know what might be causing it?

Im on SONOMA 14.6.1 / HISE 4.1/ MAX 9.0 / RNBO 1.4

Any help would be really appreciated.

Thanks!

@dannycouture Have you compiled HISE from source?

This fixed it Dave thanks!

So you got it working with RNBO 1.4?

Since...
I've found posts saying it works over 1.4, and others that it won't, and wasted half a day yesterday trying with different settings on 1.4.5 export. Today I decided to use my time a bit better and try to find what works, not what doesn't.

I've been testing things all morning, and have come to a conclusion, that after RNBO 1.3.5
something changed in their code, and the import doesn't work anymore starting from RNBO 1.4.0 upwards. I would be interested to know how in hell some people are getting it to work over 1.3.5

Here's the versions I've been testing with.
The HISE base folder being a new duplicate of the same original one on every case.
Only exported RNBO files are changed in /src
I didn't bother to try every update/downgrade, since the pattern seems quite clear.

Using HISE 4.9.3 3deb6f2a compiled with Faust

As with the tutorial video on the tube about the matter, you cannot see what the actual version of RNBO is used, so that doesn't really help either.

The reason posting here being really to spread the conclusion I came to with my set-up,
and maybe someone trying to exchange files between MAX and HISE can actually find something helpfull.

Here's where you can find the version of the RNBO you're using in MAX:
Go to File/Package manager, and be sure that you're in Installed packages, not the remote packages. Then from Show all versions you can find the versions of RNBO available for up/downgrade. Based on the experiments, I would advise not to go above 1.3.5 at this time, but of course, I might be wrong as well, That's how it works for me anyway :)
