Problems after update to Ubuntu Studio 18.04 (solved)

Installation & Configuration Linux
#1

Hi all, my english is not so good but I hope you’ll understand.
I used Ardour and Mixbus on Ubuntu 14.04 and 16.04 for several time and no problem but now I updated to UbuntuStudio 18.04 and I have theese fault:

  1. Ardour5 and Mixbus5 start only form shell and not from launcher
  2. They crash easy if I work with plugins (LV2)
  3. Opening one of my session from shell I get this message from Ardour:

his session contains the following plugins that cannot be found on this system
General MIDI Synth
XT-EQ Equalizer (Mono)

Those plugins will be replaced with inactive stubs.
It is recommended tha you instal the missing plugins ad re-load the session
also check the blacklist Windows Log and Preferences Plugins

I don’t think is a fault concerning Jack because other application as Reaper, Hidrogen, Qsynth, Rosegarden working well without problem.
Probably concernin plugins LV2 missing but I haven’t great experience and I haven’t idea how to fix.
I will be grateful if someone will could help me.
Thanks. kind regards.

Where did you get ardour from, ardour.org/download or the Ubuntu repositories?

#3

Hi Paul

I get from Ardour and Mixbus site

#4

Is this the same installation of ardour on both the old and new Ub systems?
BTW, it will be more efficient and faster to help you solve this on IRC.

#5

it’ the same installation of Ardour … I go in IRC

Paul I have some news, I unistalled Ardour5 and Mixbus (version gcc5, it seems the good version for ubuntu 18.04 cause a newer version of the
standard c++ library) and installed again and now they start from launcher and works, but I have the same problem in Ardour concerning some missing plugins.

Hi Paul, solved!

I copied the Lv2 of Mixbus in Lv2 of Ardour and now all it’s fine.

Thanks!!
Bye
