@joshpetit, vitalium has no standalone unfortunately - https://github.com/DISTRHO/DISTRHO-Ports/issues/84.

The closest you can get to a standalone is this - https://github.com/taylordotfish/vital Basically, it is the original (vital) with the logo or the firebase code removed, and a few bugs fixed. The standalone executable was renamed "vial" to avoid confusion.

@jackreeds after installing distrho-ports what's the method to get vitalium to run as a standalone from that? Thanks :)

For vitalium, install distrho-ports from the official Arch package repository. distrho-ports does not conflict with vital-synth.

The build instruction can be found at fork: maxaudron/vital, and lv2 modified version can be found here. Official repo has missed something, so do following things:

curl -LO https://web.archive.org/web/20181016150224/https://download.steinberg.net/sdk_downloads/vstsdk3610_11_06_2018_build_37.zip -o ./vstsdk3610_11_06_2018_build_37.zip
unzip -d third_party vstsdk3610_11_06_2018_build_37.zip
pushd third_part/VST_SDK
./copy_vst2_to_vst3_sdk.sh
popd
make -j32
sudo make install

Yes, but certain functionality is missing. I don't think it is even compile-ready. It will be like the chrome vs chromium situation.

Wow! Vital is open source now. https://github.com/mtytel/vital

As some folks have pointed out, there are multiple issues with the latest version. Seems I cannot bring the version back. I suggest you do the following.

  1. Clone the repository git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/vital-synth.git

  2. Remove the last three commits git reset --hard HEAD~3. This should bring it to 1.0.3.

  3. Run makepkg -si. This should install 1.0.3.

This is temporary, I'll figure a way.

Many people report crashes and graphics bugs in the 1.0.4, for example: https://forum.vital.audio/t/plugin-crash-with-1-0-4-on-bitwig-3-3-1-in-linux/4423 https://forum.vital.audio/t/new-version-crash-on-linux-manjaro/4230/26

I suggest using the 1.0.3 version until bugs get fixed. You can get it by logging in https://account.vital.audio/, then clicking on "All downloads".

Hmm. Anyone get this working with Bitwig + i3 by chance? Tried loading it just now and it crashed due to an error with X:

Are you using an AUR helper (yay for example)? If so, delete the folder ~/.cache/yay/vital-synth/ or whatever corresponds to your AUR helper and try again.
