![]() Mixbus 3.3 update is already on the todo list. I am already in the process to implement several things into my AVLinux 2016 adaption to make it run most probably everywhere. Might be interesting for some of you Mixbus users out there, too. Take it with you to another studio, run it whereever you need it. The DAW OS that contains everything needed, even for mobile use. Which is probably never needed but on very rare system hardware configurations. I adopted GRUB2, the bootloader, to integrate these kernels and leaving the options to run the original RT kernel in original configuration and in VESA mode, which also should work out of the box, which can be used fpr lowest latency, if the new kernel should not be low latency enough. iso image for download, that may run on most if not all machines instantly, i achieve this already with integrating low latency but not hard realtime kernels that booted instantly despite mentioned problems. I will work on this this weekend again and come back with details and maybe even with an install medium. So it did not start up at all in the beginning and i had to make some critical changes to the distri to make it run smooth - and it runs very smooth then. Include your license files, personal settings, everything, and make your running system a live system and live install distribution disk or stick - as simple as making a backup!īUT, and this is a huge but - graphics driver are a problem with linux realtime kernels, due to AMD and nVidia beeing very uncooperative with driver development in this field. In short- huge value and can be run from a DVD ROM or USB stick.Įven better - you can use the "Systemback" software that is used to compile this distribution to make your own distribution - with literally no effort. A great program, although discontinued, it is extremely versatile and professional. Firefox and Thunderbird for internet, LibreOffice, a vector graphics program, everything you need. That crappy pulseaudio with it's bad latency is omitted - a good thing. My MOTU AVB 24Ao was instantly recognized and worked out of the box. A great compilation of what you need for studio work. AND it has Mixbus 3.22 preinstalled! And it works as a live system, a live install disk, pretty complete workstation OS. I began to work on this last week.ĪVLinux had an update in march, after years of no releases.Īnd it was even totally made from scratch. I want to follow up on the last topic - Mixbus on a stick. I guess this is quite good news for the versatility of mixbus. But i could not check this, because right now i have no 64bit Windows in a virtual machine for testing. I guess this will also work with the 64bit install folder the same way. I did not check, if this works with relative paths.īut there should be no problem with the integrated ladspa and LV2 harrison plugins. Of course using vst plugins may need additional configuration in the mixbus preferences. So there is no full install needed - it runs right from the folder without further action. There is no way around this i guess, it is the licensing process and finding ways around this might not be legal in many countries. ![]() So you still have to copy these in the users home folder on the host machine to use Mixbus (and delete them when you leave the host machine when in another studio.). You will be asked for the license file(s) on startup. I just tested to add tracks, a LV2 reverb plugin opened the mixer window etc. I started the Mixbus3/bin/mixbus.exe in the virtual machine and it starts up fine. The 64bit install is in the /program files/Mixbus3 folder.) I used an Oracle VirtualBox virtual machine with a fresh XP install and copied the /program files(x86)/Mixbus3 folder to the virtual machine share network folder. ![]() So i tested a portable start in a fresh virtual machine. the license file is absent in the current users home folder, it gives frequent noise bursts.)ītw., Installation and licensing is done fast and does not need internet access. (You may uninstall Mixbus from the computer or not. as winetree suggested, for example if you work in another studio, put your license file in the home folder of the user account you are working with and just delete the license file when you leave. This means you are allowed to install it on as many computers as you wish as long as you are the only user. I'll investigate this further, i find this quite interesting.ītw. Shouldn't be to hard to figure out a way to accomplish this. The audio/midi config is checked and configured at startup, every time. I guess reaper can do this, never thought about such a Mixbus install.īut thinking of it, it might be possible. You mean as a portable app, right? So everything needed is contained on the USB drive and you can start the executable from there. ![]()
