@Christoph-Hart how can i do this with opencode? (get it to always check the code rather than me going round in circles with the ai) i have opencode installed on my commandline.

@David-Healey i originally mad the project on my old laptop that i sold, then i moved to a windows laptop, did the ritual of installing hise (MUCH easier on windows) and vs code. it just exported out of the box, and that was what i uploaded as my first vst. then when i installed kubuntu on that laptop, and downloaded the linux vst i made, it wouldn't play sounds (but my other audio effect plugin worked fine) also, i don't know why this laptop misses my keystrokes so much.

@omerdal this looks DOPE. congrats and i wish you success

@Chazrox i downloaded hise specifically cos some producer made a youtube video trying out free vst's and he had diddy keys on the thumbnail but it wasnt a real vst, it was just clickbait h made in photoshop, so i made it a reality

@David-Healey yes. whn i go to 'create monolith from samples and samplemaps,' a popup shows saying it was succcessful

this is a vido of the issue https://youtu.be/5K1IUFbd8VE

@shashwatshukla i thouht the m1 macs have a "wine" type thing (rosetta) that translates X86 instructions into ARM instructions. also, you can run hise natively on mac.

so, i'm trying to get my instrument plugin to work, i've exported samples as monolith and exported the vst3 plugin.
in my DAW, on first open, it asks me to install samples (find my .hr1 file) i double click it, it asks me where to extract the samples. they extract, and the instrument UI opens up.. but there is no sound.
i am using linux. wondows was a crawl on this laptop for somee reason even though its an 8th gen i5 and has 8gb ram.

i am using @David-Healey fork of hise for linux. (he linked it in a random thrad that i found when googling my linux problems)

also, snex_shaper turns into a back and forth 'copy this. oh it doesn't work,' between me and AI. (i was trying to add disrtortion to my ps1 reverb effect plugin)

So i thought i'd write this guide cos i've had a lot of issues and i've had AI helping me along the wway. i've also wrote more detail about it on a post on my buymeacoffee page.

here's the guide:
Build and download

paste these commands

sudo apt-get install faust wait for it to do its thing

git clone --branch develop https://github.com/christophhart/HISE wait for it to clone it into your home directory

cd ~/HISE

git submodule update --init --recursive this installs Juce

cd ~/HISE/JUCE/extras/Projucer/Builds/LinuxMakefile

make CONFIG=Release this compiles JUCE so you can run hise

~/HISE/JUCE/extras/Projucer/Builds/LinuxMakefile/build/Projucer --resave "~/HISE/projects/standalone/HISE Standalone.jucer" Run this, it makes extra folders you need

nano ~/HISE/hi_backend/backend/ai_tools/RestServer.cpp Open this file, paste this in the file, after the #include statements.

"

#ifdef DELETE

#undef DELETE

#endif

"

And press ctrl+o, enter/return and ctrl+x and you'll be back in the main terminal.

cd ~/HISE/projects/standalone/Builds/LinuxMakefile paste this

and then this

make=CONFIG=Release -J4 ignore the pink warnings, they don't mean anything.

ls -l build/HISE test to see if it worked. if not, you get this?

ls: cannot access 'build/HISE': No such file or directory

LinuxMakefile$ cd ~/HISE/projects/standalone/Builds/LinuxMakefile

make CONFIG=Release run this. if it says something like "everything done," you've successfully made it.

find ~/HISE -name "HISE" -type f -executable run this to find hise

~/HISE/projects/standalone/Builds/LinuxMakefile/build$ cd LinuxMakefile/build run this and hise should open.

then, it's basically done, still with a tonne of errors but you can make it work.

Note: i have no idea what i'm doing, i just wanted to make cool vst's. tthe scriptnodes are cool. it reminds me of patcher or something. i mainly just wanna make cool effects with funny ui's.
