Upgrade notes: It's a terrible idea to upgrade plugins while running programs are still using them. Make sure you exit any application(s) that use the caps plugins before upgrading. Plugin names and parameters can and do change, between caps releases. If you're upgrading from an older version, be aware that any of your scripts or projects that use caps (e.g. Ardour sessions, or jack-rack presets) might need updating, especially if you're upgrading from a really old version. For Ardour, if the changes prevent your session from loading, try: - Make a backup of your session directory (done with cp or tar, whatever). - Start ardour3 with the -d (or --disable-plugins) option. - Load the session. - Remove the offending plugins from their tracks or busses. - Save the session. - Exit Ardour. - Start ardour3 normally. - Load the session again. - Add the plugins back. Manually. If all else fails and you want to downgrade back to an older version, you can still build many of them with this SlackBuild. Upstream removes the old sources from their site, but there are several versions archived here: http://urchlay.naptime.net/~urchlay/src/caps_0.9.7.tar.bz2 [no documentation available for 0.9.7; package won't contain docs] http://urchlay.naptime.net/~urchlay/src/caps_0.9.20.tar.bz2 http://urchlay.naptime.net/~urchlay/src/caps-doc-unofficial_0.9.20.tar.bz2 http://urchlay.naptime.net/~urchlay/src/caps_0.9.24.tar.bz2 http://urchlay.naptime.net/~urchlay/src/caps-doc-unofficial_0.9.24.tar.bz2 Build with a command like: root@box:caps# VERSION=0.9.7 ./caps.SlackBuild md5sums of the above files: 7eea7c1f30363cca78f600544de271f4 caps-doc-unofficial_0.9.20.tar.bz2 58eec76a6db744e13539101dd1f7c647 caps-doc-unofficial_0.9.24.tar.bz2 0bb3935f6747a7087ca32a67bd0d8793 caps_0.9.20.tar.bz2 c1d634038dcb54702306c0e30cb1c626 caps_0.9.24.tar.bz2 d74582d3ae7a4244d3a77501693bbdf3 caps_0.9.7.tar.bz2 Other old versions not listed here may work, but haven't been tested. At some point, I may be forced to change the SlackBuild in a way that will break compatibility with old versions. If that happens, and you still need an old version, please let me know (at the email address in the .info file).
