Livecut kills audio in Bitwig projects #5

Open leading-zero opened 1 year ago

Hi,

First up, thanks for resurrecting this monster!

I've successfully built the plugin (CLAP, VST & VST3) in Big Sur 11.7.4 and Bitwig Studio 4.3.10 is able to see all versions of the plugin. From what I can tell so far, Livecut plays nicely with new projects where I add a break to an audio track, insert Livecut and I start thinking I'm Aphex Twin.

Unfortunately, when I try to add Livecut to an existing project the audio is killed on the master bus and some funny business starts happening resulting in one of the behaviours outlined below:

Is it possible you could have a look into this? I'd love to have Livecut running in Bitwig and it seems like it's almost there.

Cheers!

Edit: I can't seem to save a new project in Bitwig with Livecut using the CLAP or VST3 plugins. VST is fine.

Another edit: Had the audio die in a new project in a similar fashion to the second point above. Livecut was inserted on a drum track and the audio failed to pass through subsequent plugins down the chain.

Greetings!

This may be fixed now. Could you clone and build the latest LiveCut and let me know if this problem still happens?

(I was able to reproduce this problem of LiveCut knocking out the audio on the master bus, but in Linux using Ardour. However it only seemed to happen when adding LiveCut to old projects, as you say. I was able to track down the problem on my setup get it working again, but I'm not sure if it will fix it in yours or even whether the root cause is the same. So I'd be grateful for the feedback. Thanks!)

Seems to work well so far in new and old projects! Haven't noticed any of the aforementioned weirdness creeping in. I'll have limited time to test this week but will update if I notice anything out of the ordinary. Thanks for the fix!

Glad it's working. Enjoy!
