DSK Saxophones randomly changing sustained notes #177

Closed ajkachnic closed 2 years ago

Thanks for giving yabridge a shot!

Problem description

I set up a fresh wine prefix and installed a couple VST instruments. The two that have given me trouble so far are DSK Saxophone and Keyzone Classic. With either of them, on a long sustained note, they would jump up (seemingly) randomly. Here is an exported audio sample that demonstrates this

What did you expect to happen?

I expected the VST to hold the sustained pitches for their specified length. For example, this is what the other sample should sound like (recorded with a linux native VST)

What actually happened?

It randomly shot up to another note. It's fairly inconsistent because sometimes it plays the notes perfectly, but at other times it changes notes.

Debug log

The log looked pretty uninteresting to me, but here it is: yabridge.log

Anything else?

This seems to be a problem with a bunch of different plugins, but I'm not sure what the cause would be

I can assure you that's not a problem with yabridge itself. (I also wasn't able to reproduce this with REAPER, that DSK Saxophones plugin, and wine-tkg 7.8-ish)

But since you're using REAPER, have you tried disabling anticipative FX processing? Or have you tried this plugin in, say, Bitwig Studio? I don't know how well made these plugins are, but perhaps they somehow end up using the actual elapsed wall time as part of a calculation somewhere.

Unrelated, but you'll also want to fix your realtime priviliges and memory locking limits (you should normally also be getting a notification about this, but I wouldn't be surprised if notify-send is missing on your system).

Closing this since it's not a yabridge issue and there hasn't been a response in over a month.
