AUNetSend Problems

Am trying to patch Live into Spectre via NetSend AU on MACBook Pro. Both Apps Intel compatable.

When I open netsend in garageband, or other apps, it is very clean with options.
In Live it is pretty much a blank screen.

Any ideas?

does anyone know anything about this issue?

I don't really know much, but I would guess that the plugin uses a Cocoa interface. Live doesn't support these for AUs, I think Logic and Garageband are the only two DAWs that do.

Again, that's just a guess, but it seems like a reasonable one to me.

I've been mulling over this problem for a while now and I've got a workaround of sorts.

I bought a copy of Plogue's Bidule (http://www.plogue.com/) product that allows you to host AU's and VST's.

Because I bought it I also had access to an AU version of Bidule. I was able to load the AU version on to an audio track in Live and send audio from that track to Bidule.

Inside Bidule I then added a AUNetSend AU.

On the other MAC I ran another copy of Bidule and hosted an AINetReceive AU which I connected to the AUNetSend on the source MAC.

I then processed the incomming audio and then used a AUNetSend AU to send the audio back to an AUNetReceive hosted in Bidule on the source MAC. Then I routed the audio from the AUNetReceive back in to the Live audio track.

Hope that helps.
