VST support returns to Ardour 2.0
VST support has been re-enabled in Ardour 2.0. To enable it, compile with the "VST=yes" argument to scons. There are some important provisos:
- you cannot enable VST support and then distribute the resulting binary.
Doing so is a violation of several software licenses. If you specify
VST=yes, you will be asked to confirm that you are building Ardour
for personal use only. - you will need to have the VST 2.3 SDK available.
- the VST GUIs seem more fragile than they used to be (buttons & knobs
lock up, mouse motion sensitivity is poor, etc). Investigation and
fixes for these issues will be forthcoming.
Watch this space for more details and documentation. We remind you that this is for Ardour on Linux/x86 only. Linux/PPC and OSX do not have VST support yet.

I get the same error with Fedora Core 5.
It seems there are errors in the SContruct, causing scons to try to build the final binary before the lib is ready. Workaround, quite imperfect, but, well, working for me:
1. build with VST=0
2. comment out the following lines in the sconscript:
if env['VST']:subdirs = ['libs/fst'] + subdirs + ['vst']
(the second appearance)
3. build again with VST=1
then libardourgtk.so should be there in get2_ardour.
4. reactivate the above lines
5. build again.
After install, the binaries will be missing. Copy vst/ardour_vst and vst/ardour_vst.exe.so to the bindir manually.
Ardour sill does not start on my dapper system. I had to add the libdir (which was /usr/local/lib/ardour2) do /etc/ld.so.conf and run ldconfig to get rid of wine's rather irritating "bad exe format" error.
in step #2, where do you find all that in the sconscript?
2. comment out the following lines in the sconscript:
if env['VST']:
subdirs = ['libs/fst'] + subdirs + ['vst']
I've looked at the sconscript and this is what I see:
if env['VST']:
extra_sources += vst_files
I tried different releases of ardour2 and ardour. I really love to get the vst going.
Sorry, it ist the SConstruct that has to be changed.
don't see that in the latest ardour2 Sconstruct.
this is what I have:
if env['VST']:
libraries['fst'].ParseConfig('pkg-config --cflags --libs libfst')
Is there any chance to get this on x86_64 in the near future?

I'm just got lost. I'm not a techie. I would appreciate translation into "human" terms.All I know is that VST support allows us to program sounds from within an application.OK, so for someone who is trying too hard (like myself)... would someone please be kind enough (and patient!!!) to explain all this in English?
I bet I'll end up in a drug rehab with all these errors!

thanks if you can solve this problem..

am a programmer by day and play keyboards by night. I'm in a Helsinki based power-punk-pop band called Garage Flower (http://www.garageflower.net). I also engineer most of our bands' recordings and do that for a few other bands as well. Using Ardour, of course.
To be honest though, I'm also a programmer by night. After my work day is finished Paul Davis and the other developers are just starting their day on the other side of the pond. :)

Works great thanks. Best acne treatment
Steinberg's Virtual Studio Technology (VST) voice synthesizer and the current hard disk recording system with audio editors and plug-ins integrated software interface is very good and my work. Thanks.

Steinberg's Virtual Studio Technology (VST) is an interface for integrating software audio synthesizer and effect plugins with audio editors and hard-disk recording systems. VST and similar technologies use Digital Signal Processing to simulate traditional recording studio hardware with software.

Follish me tried to open the meter dialog by double clicking the 4/4 sign in the canvas. Of course, this didn't work so I clicked a few times more, with a crash as result...
Ardour kills the whole desktop until the ardour process itself is killed from a console login.

That version of JACK also builds on Windows and this causes problems when building code on Linux that is pretending to be for Windows. At this time (April 6th 2009), you must use JACK 0.XXX or JACK 1 if you want to build Ardour with VST support. Note that it does not matter which version you have when actually running ArdourVST.

Use it as a free mp3 editor, for mastering, sound design. The Wavosaur freeware audio editor works on Windows 98, Windows XP and Windows Vista.
