How to run VST plugins on a raspberry pi
How to run standalone software synthesizers on a raspberry pi
How to use a Raspberry PI 5 as a hardware vst host
Can Raspberry PI run my DAW
Can Raspberry PI run my VST plugins
Some bands / artists I've been following for a long time are (among others) Massive Attack, Pink Floyd, Pet Shop Boys, Archive, A-Ha, Yes, Porcupine Tree, John Mellencamp, Jean-Michel Jarre, Metallica, Peter Gabriel and Perturbator. So my music will kind of sound like those (without ever reaching the greatness of those artists, of course). :-)

super interesting videos, wondering though, what is the difference between this and a laptop on the side? What advantages could it bring in the future? As complement to a standalone MPC for instance? Would be cool to see you present some practical cases in the studio. Cheers

@mr_floydst 3 месяца назад

@@eddiexx In the way I presented it here, there is not a lot of differences. The Raspberry PI has a GPIO port though, which can be used for connecting all sorts of electronic components like encoders, potentiometers, faders and so on. So it's really not the difficult for the DIY community to come up with custom hardware controllers to go along with their favourite plugin. Windows 10 on Raspberry PI had the drivers for this port (if I remember correctly) and I'm pretty sure we'll get that on Windows 11 eventually. Another way to use this is to build it into a very small box with a smaller screen and then use it in a desktop synth setup as the box that does reverb / piano whatevery those tiny synths can't do.

Give it some months, or take a look at the "Higole Mini PC" (see ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-2-OdfBjW3Qk.htmlsi=Lcou7BS8B2zFsm1B )

That's a software MIDI controller - most plugins can be controlled by MIDI CC, so if one developed a plugin that's basically a lot of big faders and "knobs", and then also added a lot of config files for the most common plugins, this could work.

I think that's how most people who insist to not use Windows (or MacOS) would tackle this problem, albeit on an AMD/Intel system. You'll get superb results using that approach. This video is more of a report on how close you can get on a Raspberry Pi, because a lot of people are interested in that.

@electronik808 3 месяца назад

hi so the x86 emulator is inside the windows image? you don't need to install the arm version of reaper for example?

@mr_floydst 3 месяца назад

Hi, thanks for watching! From the videos transscript: "Thanks to the seamless X64 emulation, I could install most plugins and software that's really for Intel or AMD architecture without problems. So I installed Reaper, and those MPC plugins I showed in an earlier video." The emulator is baked into Windows and you won't even notice it running. Only very low-level drivers will refuse to work with it, but for example ASIO4ALL works without problems.

@Grimmwoldds 3 месяца назад

It's related to the snapdragon X machines that are launching soon. Just like Apple had to develop rosetta 2 to avoid software scarcity, M$ needed to make a way to open up the x86 software pool to the ARM processor users. They didn't before so the ARM processors failed back in the windows phone/arm processor surface tablet era. There's no actual benefit to ARM for the user, it's not magic. You still have to execute instructions. The biggest gain is made for manufacturers, because they can buy an ARM license instead of buying whole chips from Intel/AMD. But seeing dual core > 1GHz RISC-V stuff coming out with GPIO pins, I2C, and forward facing mentality(same as arduino, RISC-V looks to be splitting cores to either face the user or the hardware) makes me think RPi's days are numbered in the hobbyist world unless they clean up their act. An embedded SBC only needs as much processing power as is required, so if you're going to keep trying to stick wanna-be general computing SBCs in you'll simply end up taxing everything(heat, power draw, complexity, cost) Currently, I'd just use an n100 mini pc from Amazon for this, you're really just putting a bunch of devices on the USB bus, not leveraging the GPIO/I2C capabilities of the RPi.

@unkleskunky 3 месяца назад

Would latency perhaps improve if you were using the hat for the ssd? Perhaps I am misunderstanding your comment. This is just the win 64 version? The only dl's I see that mentions intel is mac os for intel and arm and some linux arm installs.

Do you think there will be versions of the boards you mention that have Pi resource placement, ie pins , cards and usb/ networking. I would love to see the zynthian v5 hardware with one of the boards you mention.@Grimmwoldds

@Grimmwoldds 3 месяца назад

@@unkleskunky There's tons of other boards. GPIO, UART, I2C, etc. Not only the host of RPi clones, but now RISC-V, and Arduino devices too. RPi didn't invent GPIO/I2C, they're just standard for low cost SBC/microcontrollers. USB/ethernet is more difficult, because it takes space on small boards(and the RPi is a big boy now, maybe too big), but most will have at least 1 host USB-A port and one data/power USB-C port. Wifi is getting to be a staple. The biggest problem is that they're all different(especially RISC-V, but a mango pi or beaglebone is not an RPi) Pi already has a massive user base supporting them and creating code/use cases for RPi, which is the only thing keeping them afloat. You can't just pick up a github project for an RPi and stick it on a different SBC.

It runs Windows 11 natively and shouldn't suffer from the issues the Pi has at the moment. I also came across a mini PC with a built in 5.5" touchscreen called the Higole 2 Pro.

You are right, this _is_ more powerful than an MPC, but MPC has a very well thought out user interface that allows you to get results quickly without dealing with hard-to-read screens. So while the hardware may be a winner, there's some R&D on the software side to be done.

@@mr_floydst Completely agree, and it was an oversight on my part not to include what you just said. Thanks for adding it!

Maybe makes more sense to buy an older x86 Surface Tablet 🤷‍♂

Yes, of course. If you want to use AMD/Intel/Windows software, the best way is naturally to use the platform it was designed for. This video is for people who want to know how far RasPi has come.

Thanks for watching - yep, that's nothing to write home about, but as I said in the video, these are early days. In my opinion, it's at least worth keeping an eye on.

Could you reduce it by using an audio interface? Or are there not many compatible drivers available for them?

@mr_floydst 3 месяца назад

@@adriansmithmusic I think we will see improvements over the course of the year, as I said in the video - the UEFI BIOS has been released a couple of weeks ago only.

@@mr_floydst it's very exciting. I plan to use it in college for doing covers of songs, especially 80s stuff. Being able to load up the original presents on Arturias V collection, Native Instruments access and the AIR Plugons which I originally bought for the Akai Force will be spectacular. Thanks for showing it to the world.

ilok is so trash. i simply just dont use any plugin that requires it. i tried a long time ago but after reinstalling windows and being unable to ever use the plugins again i decided ill stick to FOSS

iLok is awful. Yet, some rather widely used apps and plugins rely on it...

Your framerate has been off for a huge portion of your last video's. Has anyone mentioned this before? Makes it quite unwatchable for me even though I love the videos

@mr_floydst 3 месяца назад

My videos have been 4k, 25fps for years. I could change to, say, 1920x1080, 50fps, but I think being able to read the labels and to zoom in is much more important for this type of content than having a buttery smooth panning. Any second opinions on this?

@soejrd24978 3 месяца назад

@@mr_floydst That's very interesting, 25fps should be plenty! I thought it was something on my end after reading your comment, but after scrolling through the video frame by frame, I notice a ton of dropped frames. You can use the arrow keys to scroll through individual frames. When doing that every 2nd or 3rd frame is a duplicate of the previous, meaning an effective framerate that's more in the range of 15fps (this can be seen very clearly around 9:43). I wonder if you see the same thing. And I wonder where it goes wrong.

@mr_floydst 3 месяца назад

Oh, I can see that now! Thanks for bringing it to my attention. It's not there in my source material. Hm. Will investigate.

@mr_floydst 3 месяца назад

Just an update on this - seems my Video Editor had a bug in it's MP4 codec. Brought it to the attention of the developers who indeed had a hotfix ready! So future videos will have a stable frame rate. (The next one might still be choppy because it's already in the box)

@@mr_floydst aaaawesome mate! Thanks for updating me, taking it seriously, the whole lot. I've been put off by watching some of your previous content because of this, so I just listened while doing something else, but thanks a whole lot! Your video's already have great quality, so this is the last step.
