compile rubberband library for x86_64 on MacOSX

2012-04-03T11:13:44+00:00

Hi,

Rubber Band Library sounds very promising, thanks for your development efforts and releasing it with GPL.

I have problems compiling rubberband-1.7.0 on a 64 bit machine running MacOSX 10.6.8, by issuing make -f build/Makefile.osx

I have first fetched fftw-3.3.1 and libsamplerate-0.1.8_0.darwin_10.x86_64 from MacPorts, than changed the makefile for x86_64, and added the include and library paths /opt/local/ (a more useful idea for MacPorts users would be to read env).

Then issuing make -f build/Makefile.osx gives

g++ -DHAVE_FFTW3 -DFFTW_DOUBLE_ONLY -DNO_THREAD_CHECKS -DNO_TIMING -DNDEBUG -O3 -arch x86_64 -msse -msse2 -ffast-math -ftree-vectorize -I../include -I/usr/local/include -I/opt/local/include -Irubberband -I. -Isrc -c -o src/dsp/Resampler.o src/dsp/Resampler.cpp src/dsp/Resampler.cpp:37:2: error: #error No resampler implementation selected! make: *** [src/dsp/Resampler.o] Error 1

Inspection the code, It looks like libresample is a dependency, but not enlisted as such. Is it absolutely necessary? Since I am separately struggling for installing libresample by fetching it from Audacity svn and trying to compile for x86_64 (default ./configure detects i386, there is a bug in the audio_out.c since it includes Carbon.h instead of Carbon/Carbon.h, and even then it uses deprecated functions etc)

Or put otherwise, did anybody manage to compile rubberband library for x86_64 on MacOSX recently?

Thanks.

Determining sync between input and output

2012-03-28T09:34:54+00:00

I'm using the RubberBand library in realtime mode. In my application, I'd like to know the relationship between the input samples and the output samples as closely as possible (i.e. how the timing of the input and output map). I don't care about offsets of a few hundred samples, but I do care that it doesn't accumulate.

For a fixed stretch ratio, this should be simple; I understand that just counting samples, multiplying by the stretch ratio, and subtracting the library latency (getLatency()) should do it. However, what happens if I change the stretch or pitch ratio in real time (several times)? Since the library is block-based, I understand that it won't take effect "immediately" but rather be snapped to a block boundary or similar. Is there a way I can know when the stretch ratio change actually happens, so I know when to start counting samples using the new stretch rate in the output? Or, more accurately, when librubberband *thinks* it should happen (what point will it compensate towards in the future) since all I care about is long-term accuracy. Also, how does this interact with getLatency (which I understand can give a new value if I change the stretch ratio)?

What's the right way to go about doing this? I have a few thoughts in mind but they all depend on internal implementation details. For example, would this be any easier if I always feed librubberband exactly when needed (i.e. ask for output, consume it eventually if there is any, feed it input when there is no output available, and then only feed it exactly as much as requested with getSamplesRequired()) and only change the stretch ratio right before feeding input - would this guarantee that the stretch change happens precisely for the next block of input samples and shows up at the output at getLatency() samples later? (getLatency() before or after the stretch change?)

It would be nice if librubberband had a function to query the absolute input sample number that (roughly) corresponds to the first sample just returned or about to be returned by retrieve() - that would pretty much solve all my problems :)

How to suppress extra terminal windows?

2012-02-15T18:19:01+00:00

Hi,

I have been using the command

vsthost /path/to/my/vsti.dll

so far for launching my favourite B4II.dll plugin.

The plugin works well and I am happy with it.

Unfortunately, i have to run the command from a command line, and while the GUI of the vst is working and playing the terminal window is kept open until I close the vst GUI.

What can I do to suppress the terminal window altogether, so that at least after running the required command the terminal window can be closed without losing the vst GUI?

It is running on a debian style aptosid linux.

Thanks for all helpful hints here.

retrieved frames from RubberBandStretcher don't fit to the expected frames

2011-10-24T22:35:39+00:00

hi,
we try to implement the use of lib rubberband in hydrogen(hydrogen-music.org).
the task is that we need exact results of frames which will fit to our expected frames size in dependent of the current bpm rate.

for example:
if you will stretch a loop into a 4/4 beat on 120 bpm and 48000hz framerate you expect an sample after processing which contains exactly 96000 frames.

our problem is that the RubberBandStretcher::retrieved call returns not the expected amount of frames.
mostly we get lower values. also this results follow not reproducible rules. its variate a bit in dependent of sample content. samples with lot of silence produce bigger variations as samples without so many silence.

in my tests the stretcher options are set to OptionProcessOffline and also i call setExpectedInputDuration (size_t samples).

beside this problem, mentionable is, that we already have an working rubberband implementation in hydrogen which calls rubberband-cli into an external process. and here the results are total frame accurate.
so, it must be possible to solve this problem:).

here is my unpublished code(not in our svn). maybe i left something.

thx in advanced
wolke

edit 10/25/2011:
here you get the current implementation with contains all other code around my example method here. in svn void Sample::apply_rubberband( const Rubberband& rb ) is different than the example here, but produce the same problem. also not in svn is that i use OptionProcessOffline.
http://trac.assembla.com/hydrogen/browser/trunk/src/core/src/basics/sample.cpp

edit 10/26/2011:
i remove the code block her because i don't get it formatted
instead, here a link to our current ticked with the same part of code.

Rubber Band Audio Processor v1.2.1 out; App Store version delayed

2011-09-09T22:00:55+00:00

Version 1.2.1 of Rubber Band Audio Processor is available from our site at http://rubberbandaudio.com/. This is a bug-fix release.

Although this release has been available from this site for a couple of weeks now, I'm afraid it is not yet available from the Mac App Store because Apple rather weirdly rejected the fixed version on unrelated grounds. We're working on this and will let you know when we have something to report.

In the mean time, please accept our apologies and if you believe you have been inconvenienced in any way please do get in touch with us.

rubberband segfaults

2011-09-30T13:28:21+00:00

I don't know when exactly this began, particularly because I've never used rubberband like this before, but upon further investigation, on Arch Linux the following occurs with 1.6.0, 1.5.0 and possibly all other versions _if_ I _rebuild_ them (the older binaries still work and I've confirmed our 1.5.0 binary to be working) [1]:

$ rubberband --time 2 -d 3 in.wav out.wav

Audacity also crashes if any of the rubberband ladspa plugins is used, and most likely qtractor is also affected.

I have confirmation that it's working on Ubuntu, but with rubberband 1.3. I'm not able to build 1.3 on Arch Linux due to buildtime issues that I haven't managed to look into.

The following are packages and their versions, because I believe the problem is somewhere there:

libsamplerate 0.1.7
fftw 3.3
vamp-plugin-sdk 2.2
libsndfile 1.0.25
gcc-libs 4.6.1
glibc 2.14

Pitch Question and Java Question

2011-02-22T18:25:29+00:00

Does the library allow pitch shifts in cents rather than semitones? I want to change the pitch of an audio sample by x number of cents. Or for example, if the sample is in A440, I want to resample with a shift of x number of Hz. So I might want to resample in A339.

Also, how easy is it to use this library in Java or C#?

DSSI-VST and Rosegarden

2011-01-21T08:05:54+00:00

I decided to post this observation here instead of Rosegarden because I have your dssi-vst program installed on Slackware64... nice, BTW. On the Rosegarden website, it's mentioned that plugins increase the instability of Rosegarden and can likely crash it. Well, I'm experiencing this problem with nearly ALL VSTs for Windows. I've noticed when selecting a VST within Rosegarden via the "Manage Plugins" dialog, a significant delay occurs which I assume relates to Rosegarden automatically running WINE to run the VST plugin. Normally, the plugin will load alright, but the crashing starts when trying to change the "Instrument Parameters" of the plugin. I have some difficulty understanding the magnitude of the crashing when attempting to use 32 bit Windows plugins with a 64 bit copy of Rosegarden. Am I operating Rosegarden 10.10 improperly or is Rosegarden still immature when using VST plugins?

TIA and dssi-vst runs VST plugins fairly reliably when invoked from the command-line via jack-dssi-host. I'm mainly seeking clarification on the proper use of dssi-vst within Rosegarden.

dss-vst_gui

2011-01-12T10:24:30+00:00

Hi all, I tried to load "Native Instruments Battery 3" VST with dssi-vst, and it worked quite well.
Unfortunatly it seems that the UI of Battery3 is very cpu-hungry, so I try to hide it:

$ jack-dssi-host -v dssi-vst.so:Battery*3.dll # To load and show Battery3
$ dssi_osc_send -h osc.udp://localhost:17176/dssi # To hide it

After sending the hide command, the UI disappears correctly, but I see lots of messages "dssi-vst_gui: something to read from plugin" that cause my CPU to go to 50% (25% gnome terminal and 25% dssi-vst_gui).
If I send the "show" command, the UI appears and all return to normality.

I also tried with ghostess, with the same results.

I use Ubuntu 10.04 with FalkTX repositories: dssi-utils 1.1.0, gdssi-vst 0.9.2, hostess 20100923, wine 1.3.8

thanks

dssi-vst Debian Min Install

2011-01-11T19:26:46+00:00

Hi there,

First up I only discovered Linux a year ago and unfortunately my knowledge in the area is extremely limited. I was planning on using dssi-vst for a project, but am struggling to set it up properly.

I am running a minimal install of Debian, the first thing I did was to add the untested repo to sources.list and get the 0.9.2 package of dssi-vst (I do not feel confident enough to build from source). All the dependencies (from what I can tell) were also installed. I placed a sample VST DLL in the dssi-vst folder (where it defaults if no paths have been set up). When executing vsthost GGrain.dll I get: line 36: exec: wine: not found
Plugin server timed out on startup: No such device or address.

The only other package I have installed on top of the minimal install is alsa-base.

I must apologise if I am missing something glaringly obvious, I am probably above my head here.

Regards,
Mike

why isn't there a time streching ladspa plugin?

2010-12-18T12:14:49+00:00

I used your pitch shifting ladspa, and its great. I am really sad that there is NO time stretching ladspa plugin AT ALL under linux. Your library, and others, are built into numerous programs, there are some standalone programs for this, stretchplayer, paulstretch, play it slowly.

But NO LADSPA -- I would really need that, as I used to use it a lot with NI Traktor. Now I could use traktor 2.6.2 with wine, but I just want the functionality in LADSPA. Are all these libraries (yours, soundtouch, scale tempo, libsbsms....) not capable of doing time stretching in realtime? I doubt that, as the standalone players do well.

So I would really like to have a LADSPA based time stretch plugin
As I have no clue how much effort that is, I just wanted to ask.
I am not really a coder, though the idea of generating ladspas with faust sounds fun. If there IS such a plugin, and I miss it, could you please point me to it?

greets, revast

StretchPlayer

2010-11-28T14:11:24+00:00

Hi,

It'd be nice to link to StretchPlayer from the RubberBand page: another app that uses rubberband in real time: http://www.teuton.org/~gabriel/stretchplayer/

Kind regards,

Installation Error (Software Center)

2010-09-11T14:55:12+00:00

I already have the latest WINE version installed but I get this error when ever I click install.

"Package Dependences cannot be resolved
This error could be caused by required additional software packages which are missing or not installable. Futhermore there could be a conflict between software packages which are not allowed to be installed at the same time."

What should I do? I was really gun-hoe about this package now it won't install. I'm dieing to use some killer Windows VST's in linux please help. :(

Small fix to DSSIVSTPluginInstance

2010-07-05T11:01:33+00:00

In case when instantiating the RemoteVSTClient, the server process crashes, on plugin release we free m_alsaDecoder, which may not be already allocated.

By adding m_alsaDecoder(0) in the initialization list of the DSSIVSTPluginInstance constructor:

DSSIVSTPluginInstance::DSSIVSTPluginInstance(std::string dllName,
                     unsigned long sampleRate) :
    m_sampleRate(sampleRate),
    m_lastSampleCount(0),
    m_controlPorts(0),
    m_controlPortsSaved(0),
    m_controlPortCount(0),
    m_audioIns(0),
    m_audioInCount(0),
    m_audioOuts(0),
    m_audioOutCount(0),
    m_programs(0),
    m_programCount(0),
    m_alsaDecoder(0),                      // <<<<<<< add this here
    m_pendingProgram(false),
    m_plugin(0),
    m_ok(false)
{
   // ...

We fix a potential crash in the destructor:

DSSIVSTPluginInstance::~DSSIVSTPluginInstance()
{
    std::cerr << "DSSIVSTPluginInstance::~DSSIVSTPluginInstance" << std::endl;

    // ...

    if (m_alsaDecoder) {
    snd_midi_event_free(m_alsaDecoder);     // <<<<<<<< to fix a crash here
    }

Here it is the backtrace:

dssi-vst package for deb: which wine version?

2010-06-28T20:10:47+00:00

Hi,

at last it is there (well, actually, it has been there for quite a while now): a package to install dssi-vst via apt-get.

Current version available online is 0.8-2+b1.

I have had some trouble with running a certain online registration tool for my B4II organ. To do this online registration correctly, I need the very latest vesion of wine to be installed, which on the wine-hq pages is wine_1.1.42~winehq1-1_i386.deb. The trouble with the registration tool is that it needs some VB runtime libs to be installed of which I neither know which version nor where to get it. So I have installed that latest wine version and - you name it - the registration tool works and I can do the online registration successfully.

Unfortunately, when installing dssi-vst to run my B4II organ plugin I have to uninstall the wine-hq package and instead install the apt-get package in debian repositories. I cannot keep the latest wine version. I also cannot install experimental version or wine-unstable version.

dssi-vst appears to be hooked to a particular version of wine and I have no idea how to circumvent that.

Maybe it could be an idea for the maintainers of the package not to tie dssi-vst to a particular wine variant?

Kind Regards,
Crypto.

Compiling fat binaries on OSX

2010-05-20T13:14:07+00:00

Hi, I'm trying to build the library for more than one architecture. It seems that the current makefile is not compatible, but I'm not sure what to change about it.

I think the problem is with the ar program, since on OSX you should be using lipo or libtool instead I think. This seems to be the offending bit:

$(STATIC_TARGET): $(LIBRARY_OBJECTS)
$(AR) rsc $@ $^

Below is the error I get.

ar rsc lib/librubberband.a src/rubberband-c.o src/RubberBandStretcher.o src/StretcherProcess.o src/StretchCalculator.o src/base/Profiler.o src/dsp/AudioCurveCalculator.o src/dsp/CompoundAudioCurve.o src/dsp/SpectralDifferenceAudioCurve.o src/dsp/HighFrequencyAudioCurve.o src/dsp/SilentAudioCurve.o src/dsp/ConstantAudioCurve.o src/dsp/PercussiveAudioCurve.o src/dsp/Resampler.o src/dsp/FFT.o src/system/Allocators.o src/system/sysutils.o src/system/Thread.o src/StretcherChannelData.o src/StretcherImpl.o
ar: lib/librubberband.a is a fat file (use libtool(1) or lipo(1) and ar(1) on it)
ar: lib/librubberband.a: Inappropriate file type or format
make: *** [lib/librubberband.a] Error 1

Compiling on OS X 10.6.2 -- need pkg-config

2010-05-04T04:13:14+00:00

Heads up to Mac users, autoconf started bitching at me about pkg-config not being up to date or in the right place. Not too big of a deal.. just download from http://pkg-config.freedesktop.org/wiki/, then ./configure && make && make install the pkg-config stuff and you should be good to go, it's just another dependency that's not listed in the readme.

best,

Stretch ratio and RubberBand abilities

2010-01-30T00:53:15+00:00

Hi BreakfastQuay team,

I started a new project using your amAZing library but I experience some difficult to clearly understand few things.

I usually get a "*** WARNING: increment -21 <= 0, rounding to zero", what does it mean ?
Example given at 44100 sample rate with a stretch ratio 0,38 and working offline (with all other default options).

My second question is, with a ratio strictly equal to 1.0 (double value, like in your API) when I 'study' next 'process' a buffer of 22050 samples, I get an output response length around 22160.
Is it 'normal' ? (I suppose yes because timestretching is not an exact 'science' ;)
But, does this error range approximation grows with stretch ratio ?
Sometime I received lot of "Buffer overrun on output" I can't handle, and 'vice et versa' lot of missing precious frames comparing to my output length forecasts (buffer underrun for me).

Thank's a lot for your great great job with this (vital to me) lib :)

Regards,

Christophe

VSTHost launches Jack with bad parameters

2010-01-05T21:19:29+00:00

Hi there

After installation, dssi-vst works fine, but "vsthost any.dll" (for instance) launches jack with basic parameters that are not those from -jackd, so I can't use it for playing. Where can I find configuration files for vsthost ?

Compilation woes on debian

2009-12-29T21:00:31+00:00

Hi,
I'm trying to compile dssi-vst 0.8 on my sidux (debian sid) notebook. It's a 32bit version of debian.

After I enter the source file directory and enter "make" from command line I keep getting:

lutz@pucki:/home/data/pcsetup/dssi-vst-0.8$ make
wineg++ -m32 -Ivestige -Wall -fPIC remotepluginclient.cpp -c -o remotepluginclient.w32.o
remotepluginclient.cpp: In constructor ‘RemotePluginClient::RemotePluginClient()’:
remotepluginclient.cpp:41: error: ‘sprintf’ was not declared in this scope
remotepluginclient.cpp:50: error: ‘perror’ was not declared in this scope
remotepluginclient.cpp:64: error: ‘perror’ was not declared in this scope
remotepluginclient.cpp:78: error: ‘perror’ was not declared in this scope
winegcc: g++ failed
make: *** [remotepluginclient.w32.o] Fehler 2

Note that I have installed wine-unstable because the "Service Center" application that I need to online register my B4II does not run with the standard version of wine. I have liblo0 installed and all dev packages mentioned in the README file of dssi-vst.

I had to de-install standard wine and that is why the *.deb package of dssi-vst v. 0.7 was deinstalled as well, as it requires libwine and wine (without "unstable") to be installed. Because I cannot use the *.deb package of dssi-vst that I already have I wanted to compile the latest version of dssi-vst myself, but without success, obviously. This dssi-vst deb package used to work well until I tried to register my B4II.

I have read quite a bit about adding new lines to the source files, but I have not found what to do there exactly.

Can you help me here?

Thankyou in advance,
Crypto.
