CALF Filter and other filters do not work

Installation & Configuration Linux
#1

Actually, have seen this before. For instance, CALF Filter will let me change Inertia and Resonance and type of filter, but frequency just stays inactive and I cannot change it. Same with any other filter I loaded up. What’s going on?

#2

Hmm strange…

Just tested and all seems to work here for me. What version of ardour? Jack? System specs would be nice also…

#3

Ardour 2.7.1
JACK 0.3.4
Ubuntu 9.04

Same filters seem to work fine otherwise. They work fine in other programms.

#4

Likely a problem in Ubuntu’s packaging. It is a common issue that shows up in many different ways. I would suggest updating Ardour from someplace that is not Ubuntu’s repos at this point.

How do you update ardour? You mean reinstalling it? Will my older projects run okay?

#6

It should run better, you will have latest version and older projects should run ok.

Read at least once before you fire-up the terminal.

If you decide to do it, don’t forget to completely purge remove ardour from repos.
