It's a terrible idea to upgrade plugins while running programs are
|
|
|
|
|
still using them. Make sure you exit any application(s) that use the
|
|
|
|
|
caps plugins before upgrading.

|
|
|
Plugin names and parameters can and do change, between caps releases. If
|
|
|
|
|
you're upgrading from an older version, be aware that any of your scripts
|
2014-02-13 23:54:17 +08:00
|
|
|
or projects that use caps (e.g. Ardour sessions, or jack-rack presets)
|
2018-12-18 18:45:20 +08:00
|
|
|
might need updating, especially if you're upgrading from a really old
|
|
|
|
|
version.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For Ardour, if the changes prevent your session from loading, try:
|
2014-02-13 23:54:17 +08:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Make a backup of your session directory (done with cp or tar, whatever).
|
2018-12-18 18:45:20 +08:00
|
|
|
- Start ardour3 with the -d (or --disable-plugins) option.
|
|
|
|
|
- Load the session.
|
2014-02-13 23:54:17 +08:00
|
|
|
- Remove the offending plugins from their tracks or busses.
|
2018-12-18 18:45:20 +08:00
|
|
|
- Save the session.
|
|
|
|
|
- Exit Ardour.
|
|
|
|
|
- Start ardour3 normally.
|
|
|
|
|
- Load the session again.
|
|
|
|
|
- Add the plugins back. Manually.

If all else fails and you want to downgrade back to an older version,
|
|
|
|
|
you can still build many of them with this SlackBuild. Upstream removes
|
|
|
|
|
the old sources from their site, but there are several versions archived
|
|
|
|
|
here:

Build with a command like:

|
|
root@box:caps# VERSION=0.9.7 ./caps.SlackBuild

Other old versions not listed here may work, but haven't been tested.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
At some point, I may be forced to change the SlackBuild in a way that
|
|
|
|
|
will break compatibility with old versions. If that happens, and you
|
|
|
|
|
still need an old version, please let me know (at the email address in
|
|
|
|
|
the .info file).
