LMMS workarounds

Comment with your workaround and I will update the post!

  • Stopping reverb in the middle of a song sounds like a sudden cut/stop. Fix: Automate the W/D knob to 0 over time.

  • Automating an instrument track on/off doesn't save for the next time. The connection becomes broken. Fix: Automate an FX-channel on/off instead or the instrument volume. If it is crucial to you, remember that you don't have to redraw the automation curves, just CTRL + drag the controls to the automation.

  • VST effects stop working properly. Fix: Save and quit LMMS. In Windows go to the task manager Ctrl + Shift + Esc. End all the processes called "RemoteVstPlugin.exe". Open LMMS and then your project again.


  • Too little CPU crashes LMMS. Fix: 
    1. Export instrument tracks as wav and put them in again with the sample track.
    2. Automate the VST effects off when not in use.
    3. Buy more ram and put it in your computer.

  • LB302 plays a long tone when detuning. Fix: Add a very short tone just after the detuning, you won't hear it.

  • The GLAME highpass filter glitches when the automation reach 0. Fix: Turn it off in that exact moment by automation.

  • When exporting some of the automations turn all yellow. Fix: Save project and open it again.

    For the VSTs pops and clicks, I wrote a script to automate the "high priority" setting, which helps considerably.
