patchmatrix was already added.

@papojari Thanks for the hint.
@pennae Would you mind taking a look at this PR?

I think it would make sense to make a category of these packages.

@papojari What do you mean by category?

a package set

Like magnetophonDSP?

yes, you already said it in the top comment

Maybe they should go in a subdomain, like open-music-kontrollers.vm, also because of the generic name of some of them.

@papojari

yes, you already said it in the top comment

Ah, yes, of course. Sorry for being slow.
I put them in a category now.

That's just a convenient way to scan for plugins

Shouldn't this be in the program itself?

hi

Synthpod by default runs plugin guis in separate processes and thus can mix plugins with gtk2 and gtk3 and (qt4 xor qt5) guis in the same project. The build system only supports qt4 or qt5 though, not both at the same time.

The gtk/qt backends are optional as most plugin guis need a x11 backend.

EDIT:
The toolkits are not linked into the same app, which would make no sense. There are dedicated binaries to run the guis with communication to the main app via shared memory:

synthpod_sandbox_gtk2  synthpod_sandbox_kx    synthpod_sandbox_show
synthpod_sandbox_gtk3  synthpod_sandbox_qt5   synthpod_sandbox_x11

@ventosus Thanks for clearing that up!
@SuperSandro2000 I removed gtk2 because hardly any plugins use it and I removed qt4 in favor of qt5.

I'd argue in the other direction, there are hardly any Gtk3 Uis but loads of Gtk2, but well, I'm not running NixOS ;-)

$ grep -l GtkUI $( find /usr/lib/lv2 -name '*.ttl' 2>/dev/null ) 2>/dev/null | wc -l
83
$ grep -l Gtk3UI $( find /usr/lib/lv2 -name '*.ttl' 2>/dev/null ) 2>/dev/null | wc -l
2

I'd argue in the other direction

Thanks, done.

@magnetophon please rebase on master.
