I had a student send me a project where LinuxSampler was not rendering
audio when mixing the project down to MP3. I decided to investigate and
discovered that I can reproduce the issue. It seems to be related to
LinuxSampler re-loading its instruments when project mix down begins. I
made a video demonstrating this bug here: https://youtu.be/ZdEY9G21FPo
Anybody know what might be going on here?
Not sure whether that's really a bug of the sampler. I am frequently using the
VST plugin version of the sampler with Cubase and I never encountered that it
would reload anything if I start to bounce a song to an audio file. Usually
the respective sound is loaded by the sampler (plugin) when you open a song in
your DAW, but not when you export the song to an audio file.
Are you using a MIDI map with LinuxSampler and changing the sound with MIDI
program change or are you rather loading the sound explicitly from a specific
file?
No MIDI program changes are involved. I'm simply loading the Maestro
Concert Grand <http://sonimusicae.free.fr/matshelgesson-maestro-en.html>
using the Fantasia interface that comes up when opening the VST GUI.
Have you tried another DAW application?
Yes. Here are the results:
First, a couple notes:
* My ASIO driver is only available at 48 KHz, so that is the rate all
my DAWs are running at.
* Here is the MIDI file
<https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/8126161/Blue%20Storm.mid> that
I have been using for this test (student composition, please do not
share). Set the DAW to 70 BPM for correct tempo.
Test results:
* *Acoustica Mixcraft 7 x64/x86 + LinuxSampler x64/x86:* mixing down
to 44.1 or 48 KHz audio = LinuxSampler reloads its samples at
beginning of mixdown, audio renders as silence.
* *SONAR x64 + LinuxSampler x64:* mixing down to 44.1 or 48 KHz audio
= samples are not re-loaded, audio renders normally
* *Reaper x64 + LinuxSampler x64:* mixing down to 48 KHz audio works
as expected, but mixing down to 44.1 causes LinuxSampler to reload
its samples, and the audio renders as silence.
So that makes two out of my three DAWs that run into this problem. I
actually work for Acoustica, so if you have any specific questions about
what messages Mixcraft is sending to the plugin when mixing down, let me
know and I can pass them on to the developer.
