5 This is a linux vst host. Runs as a jack client.
7 Only works for GUI plugins currently.
14 1) ensure you have the necessary build dependencies:
20 2) Type 'make'. If everything works correctly this should create an
21 executable file called 'fst'.
23 3) On 64bit it may fail with a link error, when it cant find a 32bit lash
24 but the 64bit stuff is in place.
25 build yourself a 32bit lash, or:
28 4) To run your vst plugins:
30 ./fst /path/to/someplugin.dll
32 and set up the inputs and outputs, eg. using qjackctl's
35 5) To install copy both fst and fst.exe.so into your $PATH
36 (i think they need to be in the same folder)
41 With LASH you can save and restore the state of the plugin.
42 in order to promote lash i pushed other methods of load/save
43 pretty much down in my priority list.
45 There is a first version of midi learn, load/save of midimap
46 will come tomorrow. i had my beer now and its 5:15
47 i should be in a club. but i go to bed now.
48 just press midi learn, move a plugin control and your midi
54 fst is licenced under the GNU General Public License version 2. See
55 file 'COPYING' for details.
