Default Renoise Redux

I'm having problems with the Renoise Redux VST. It does not get the
keyboard input from Reaper. Did anyone have more luck than me getting
this to work in Reaper under Linux?

Setup:
- Ubuntu 2018.04.3 LTS
- Reaper 6.02
- Redux 1.1.1

This seems to be a known problem:

https://forum.renoise.com/t/linux-re...rdour/44280/26 (same problem in Ardour)

Edit: I've tried "send all keyboard input to plug-in"

I think there is still no solution for this. Due to Taktik it's a "problem" of the DAW.

I would like to bring this up again. It seems to be merely an issue of communicating how this needs to be implemented correctly. While Paul Davis says that there is no "standard" way to do this in Linux VST (https://discourse.ardour.org/t/renoi...y-events/88301), it works correctly in Renoise (surprise!), and apparently in Waveform and Bitwig. So there seems to be a (potentially non-standard) way to implement the correct behaviour, and it would be great if Justin could get in touch with Taktik from Renoise about this. I also encouraged Taktik to get into contact with Justin (https://forum.renoise.com/t/redux-no...er-linux/59460), so I hope they somehow manage to get into contact with each other.

Hello, i just tested redux with the latest reaper dev build (reaper6.10 + dev0520) and noticed that redux plays samples triggered by the computer keyboard input if i am in redux edit mode. Don't know if this was possible before, but i don't think so.

Here it's not working. Can you move down in the editor with the arrow keys and enter notes with the keyboard?

Downloaded the latest version and it's not working. Strange.

Let me try it under xfce, maybe that's a long shot but you never know.

Indeed it doesn't work in xfce. This is very strange and hopefully something that's helpful for the devs.

Aha.. thanks for checking. I also looked at the changelog, but there nothing mentioning Redux.

Seems also that something is not stable:

Got several crashes with journal messages:

@lilith93: In the error message you included, it looks like you have both the demo and the full version installed. Try deleting the file: renoise_redux_demo.so from you .vst folder. That should help with stability.

Ok, so Redux 1.1.2 has been released. According to the changelog
(https://forum.renoise.com/t/renoise-...releases/61181) this bug should be fixed.

Sadly for me it does not seem to work so far (same behaviour as before).

What are your experiences?

EDIT: Ok, I've played some more and got it working. I'm not quite sure how...
It seems like the Reaper keyboard focus is either on Reaper or on the plugin.
I can move between them but I'm not exactly sure how (just trial and error for
now). Anyway, it's much better now, thanks to everybody.
