Way to work with audio samples as MIDI without using a janky sampler?

Create a wrapper a script that unsets LD_LIBRARY_PATH and then launches the external file browser. Also use vfork to prevent rt issues.

Preferably ask the host to show a dialog or directly build it in the plugin GUI

Ah I see, so this is a known issue with JUCE - Ubuntu 18.04 can't run VST which needs JUCE_WEB_BROWSER - Linux - JUCE I shall investigate further.

Aha thank you, that makes the issue clearer to me. I’ll see what I can do.

I found a JUCE flag that allows me to disable the native file chooser. The resulting file chooser is ugly, but it works in Ardour and Qtractor.

Hi!

Confirmed! Works here too! The file Browser isn’t hideous, it just doesn’t match the Plugin UI, not a biggie to me. I can’t test further today but will do so ASAP. Excellent work @DHealey!
