Thanks very much. You make my day 🙂
My Buzzzy! panel is almost finished. I’ll publish it soon.

I’ve made this script which is called when the “engine uiCombo” modulator value change:
EDIT: corrected some error in the script.

--
-- Called when a modulator value changes
-- @mod   http://ctrlr.org/api/class_ctrlr_modulator.html
-- @value    new numeric value of the modulator
--
selectWavesForEngines = function(--[[ CtrlrModulator --]] mod, --[[ number --]] value, --[[ number --]] source)
    local engine = panel:getModulatorByName("osc_engine"):getValue()
    local waves_pulse = panel:getModulatorByName("osc_pulse")
    local waves_fm = panel:getModulatorByName("osc_fm")
    local waves_wave = panel:getModulatorByName("osc_wave")
    local waves_noise = panel:getModulatorByName("osc_noise")
    if engine == 0 then
        waves_pulse:getComponent():setVisible(true)
        waves_fm:getComponent():setVisible(false)
        waves_wave:getComponent():setVisible(false)
        waves_noise:getComponent():setVisible(false)
    elseif engine == 1 then
        waves_pulse:getComponent():setVisible(false)
        waves_fm:getComponent():setVisible(true)
        waves_wave:getComponent():setVisible(false)
        waves_noise:getComponent():setVisible(false)
    elseif engine == 2 then
        waves_pulse:getComponent():setVisible(false)
        waves_fm:getComponent():setVisible(false)
        waves_wave:getComponent():setVisible(true)
        waves_noise:getComponent():setVisible(false)
    elseif engine == 3 then
        waves_pulse:getComponent():setVisible(false)
        waves_fm:getComponent():setVisible(false)
        waves_wave:getComponent():setVisible(false)
        waves_noise:getComponent():setVisible(true)
    end
end

But i can not find anything about layers. Just “Component Layer ID”.
Do i need to make a script that run when the panel load finish with setVisible(false) on waves_fm, waves_wave and waves_noise uiCombo?

Thanks. Your help is greatly appreciated 🙂

Thanks 🙂
I’ll try to do the lua Table without saving next week.
Saving as binary file seem to be more simpler than converting to csv.

I am trying Ctrlr-x86_64-6.0.1.sh on Linux Fedora 29.
If I try to start the standalone Ctrlr binary (have not tried the Ctrlr.so Linux VST yet) I am getting this error:

./Ctrlr: error while loading shared libraries: libbfd-2.28-system.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Previous Ctrlr versions are still working normally.

$ ls /usr/lib64/ | grep libbfd
libbfd-2.31.1-17.fc29.so
libbfd.a
libbfd.so

You need to modify the Ctrlr binary with patchelf:
patchelf –replace-needed libbfd-2.28-system.so libbfd-2.31.1-17.fc29.so Ctrlr
That work for me on Debian testing.

[arcangeli]

Open build.sh with a text editor (i’m using vim but i think that there is a simpler one already installed like leafpad)
Remove these 5 lines:
if [ $CPUS -ge 4 ]; then
let JOBS=’CPUS / 2′
else
let JOBS=2
fi
Replace them by:
JOBS=1

It control the number of file that are compiled at the same time which need more memory that available on the rpi.

Quit all unused applications (do not use the rpi).

launch ./build.sh -f another time and cross finger 😉

You may need to install more “dev” package but i can’t say for sure beacause i do not use raspbian (archlinux on the rpi).

I’ll try to help you more if needed. You can contact me directly if you need faster response at bruno AT arcangeli DOT org

Remember to unzip Boost/boost.zip.

[arcangeli]

You need to install libiberty-dev with “sudo apt-get install libiberty-dev”

[arcangeli]

cp /path/to/your/libbfd.a libbfd-$(uname -m).a
cp /path/to/your/libiberty.a libiberty-$(uname -m).a
uname is your friend as the rpi3 has some distribution in aarch64 and some other in armv7l (yes the rpi3 can do 32 OR 64 bit).

[arcangeli]

I’ve made some error. I’ve removed my old source tree. There was somethng weird inside.
No it compile perfectly. Work weel.
Sorry.

Good work Atom. Thanks.

[arcangeli]

Compile well until:

CTRLR[linux]: build failed

With lua 5.3 on ubuntu 16.04 aarch64

[arcangeli]

There’s nothing particular to do for compiling it on ARM.
I’ve tried on Rasbain with succes.
I mostly use ArchLinux on rpi2 and ctrlr version is tagged 3d8651d991d377f7b167806c39c47a3121fe9536 on git.
Go inside Builds/Generated/Linux/Standalone.
Copy your OS version of libbfd.a to libbfd-armv7l.a. Do the same with your libiberty.a.
./build.sh -f
You may need to install some “-dev” package like binutils-dev and libiberty-dev and some other (can’t remember as i’m offen compile myself some app).

Now, i’m trying with my Nvidia Jetson-TX1 (AARCH64) running ubuntu. Work perfectly.

[arcangeli]

The first problem was under my eyes but can’t see it. Replaced panel:getPanelEditor():setPropertyInt by panel:getPanelEditor():setPropertyString.
Now that part work well 😉

[arcangeli]

I’ve conceived my novation circuit panel with the 800×480 resolution in mind.
That’s work perfectly.
There are many screen (mainly hdmi+usb). I’ve got the official screen with dsi interface. As thus i can use the rpi with 2 screens 😉

[arcangeli]

Great, it work perfectly on x86_64 and armv7h (raspberry pi 2) with Arch Linux.
It’s really awesome.
Now i can finish my Novation Circuit panel and share it 🙂

[arcangeli]

Ok, thanks. I’ll try this soon 🙂

[arcangeli]

5.3 compile ok.
But does not work.
Ctrlr start, i can open a panel. But nothing more. Nothing work inside the window (the menu work). Things are frozen.
I’ve made a panel for my Novation Circuit that work very well on x86 (archlinux) but i don’t want to use this computer for this.
It is a shame…

[arcangeli]

That now work.
It need ctrlr 5.3 with lua 5.1 and gcc 4.8…

[arcangeli]

Awesome! Thanks very much.
My problem with Ctrlr is the lack of time to learn it as there is no doc…

[arcangeli]

Great!
Apparently, Ctrlr lack only a good documentation 😉

I’ll now recreate my panel from start. With better naming convention.

[arcangeli]

The problem (relative position) come from my window manager (awesome) which is a Tiling one. If i manage my window like with “standard” WM, it’s ok.

Changing the owner parameter for each element is a long task… And not very user friendly 😉

Thanks for your help dasfaker.
