Thank you for downloading DrumBlaster VST3 demo for Linux.

----------------------
1. install the plugin
----------------------

- copy the Drumblaster.vst3 folder to your VST3 prefered folder ( $HOME/.vst3/ sounds like a good choice )

------------------------------------------
2. install the factory samples and presets 
------------------------------------------

- run the install_drumblaster.sh script to create the folders and copy the files.
- or create "$HOME/.audioblast/DrumBlaster" and copy the "Presets" and "Samples" folders into.

- you can also copy the content of the Presets folder to $HOME/.vst3/presets/AudioBlast/DrumBlaster/


-------------------------
3. install the MIDI files
-------------------------

- copy the MIDI files anywhare you want !


---------------------------------
4. Install the missing libraries
---------------------------------

the xcb-util-cursor may be missing on some systems, install it if you want to be sure the plugin can run.
If you want to be 100% sure there's no missing libraries, open a terminal and type :
sudo apt install libxcb1 libxcb-util1 libxcb-icccm4 libcairo2 libxau6 libxdmcp6 libpixman-1-0 libfontconfig1 libfreetype6 libpng16-16 libxcb-shm0 libxcb-render0 libxrender1 libx11-6 libxext6 zlib1g libbsd0 libexpat1 libfftw3-3 libxcb-cursor0 libxcb-xkb1 libxkbcommon0 libxkbcommon-x11-0 

DrumBlaster needs also the libsndfile lib.
sudo apt-get install libsndfile1


--------------------
4. Demo limitations
--------------------

- Demo plugin stop loading presets after 20 loads.
- Demo stop making sound after ~ 51 minutes.

--------------
5. Known bugs
--------------

- UI resize doen't recall in Renoise.
- Drag And Drop is not working
