Struggling to export my first test project as VST MacOS Sonoma

cadrose

I'm new to Hise and very excited to get stuck in. I am looking to export my first test project.
I'm running Hise 3.6.2 which I compiled myself on Mac OS Sonoma 14.1 using Xcode 15.
I read that you have to use xcode 14.3.1 to compile the VST after running into similar issues that have been solved with this method.
However now Im getting this issue and Im running out of ideas to try. Can anyone help? Thanks Callum.

This image seems to be the problem

cadrose

@d-healey I really appreciate you taking the time to help!

Im slightly confused by this as im not entirely sure why it would be looking for this image file.

All ive done so far is add two samplers and assigned the gain of each one to a corresponding knob on the interface window which appears like so:

I figured I'd start super simple to get a feel for the process and check stability.

d.healey

@cadrose Open the project XML files (there is more than one) in a text editor and look for any references to that file

cadrose

@d-healey
Apologies if I have misunderstood. I saved the project as XML and checked both and I cant see a reference to it.

@cadrose Have you tried cleaning the build directory before exporting?

cadrose

@d-healey is this what gets created in the binaries folder of the project each time I export? if so, Ive been deleting what gets created each time I've done an export.

d.healey

@cadrose

This:

How many copies of the HISE source code are on your system?

cadrose

@d-healey Ahha thank you!! I had the Hise source code path set to a previous attempt. I changed it to the current build and thats sorted it!

Although now I cant seem to get the samples to playback through the plugin.
Screenshot 2024-05-11 at 19.16.18.png

Ive made the .hr1 file and I set the plugin to the location but no sound. The samples play back fine in Hise however. I imagine its something silly I'm doing wrong.

Lindon

@cadrose did you restart the plugin?

cadrose

@Lindon I have yea, it says it’s installed the sounds successfully. I also exported a standalone version but I had the same issue.

d.healey

@cadrose does the link file point to the samples?

cadrose

@d-healey Sorry, are you referring to the choose sample folder box?

I have pointed the samples to the folder created by hise in /music/My Company/test 123/Samples

In here I put .hr1 file & the samples

d.healey

@cadrose

.hr is a compressed archive (like a zip file). Once the samples are extracted from it you don't need to keep it around.

The samples should be in .ch format.

When you select locate samples HISE creates a file called LinkOSX or LinkWindows inside the app data folder. This file contains the path to the samples folder, where your plugin will look for samples. Check that this is the correct path.

cadrose

@d-healey Ahha, yes this was the issue, thanks so much for your help!
