I am facing an issue similar to #281. I am trying to load Kontakt Player along with a fxp file, (as mentioned in the issue thread). I get an audio file which has 0 notes, 0s(1 KB file), as mentioned in the log below, wrote 0 frames to wav file. I also observed that MrsWatson is opening a pop up window which is opened while you try to load the plugin using a host(the loading window, which I assume loads samples).But in case of MrsWatson, it a opened for a much shorter time than it is opened for a DAW(I used FL Studio).

`.\mrswatson64.exe -p '.\Kontakt 5.dll',.\drum5.fxp -m .\hitT0.mid -o out.wav

    I am also attaching two files.

  2. out-verbose.log (generated by --verbose)[out-verbose.log]
    (https://github.com/teragonaudio/MrsWatson/files/3025478/out-verbose.log)

Could there be some trouble with loading the sample package or determining path?

Try changing quotations to :

.\mrswatson64.exe -p “.\Kontakt 5.dll,.\drum5.fxp” -m .\hitT0.mid -o out.wav

Also try removing relative address (I expect it is not necessary as you already have changed directory to the files):

mrswatson64.exe -p “Kontakt 5.dll,drum5.fxp” -m hitT0.mid -o out.wav

I tried the following suggestions. I am still getting 0 frames in the audio file. Also with Kontakt 6,
I am getting the same output as described above. This one extra line of log that appears with Kontakt 6:
"cannot resolve resource: resources_ENG" and also the log is a bit different. (difference is in the line after the above stated line 003640).

mrswatson64.exe -p "Kontakt.dll,drum.fxp" -m ./chordsT0.mid -o ./out.wav

I tried using the above configuration and using combinations with the previous suggestion, but I get the same output.

How are you creating the .fxp file? I assume a Daw host, and are you using 64 or 32 bit? Pick a free kontact library and choose one of the first synth,piano or keyboard presets, and report which preset you chose using. Upload your .fxp file too. Upload a screenshot of running bash “ls” or cmd “dir” of the contents of the folder you are running MrsWatson inside of.
Thanks, Wm

I am using FL studio using the method that you suggested in #281. I am using 64 bit. So far I have tested three libraries:

  1. Drum : https://de-de.sennheiser.com/drummica - used the default preset
  2. Guitar : http://www.pettinhouse.com/html/acousticguitar_free.html - used the default preset
  3. Piano : http://www.mediafire.com/download/6zd3w39op0tiq2c/MSLP_Piano_Grand_Soft.nki
    used the default preset

The screenshot is attached

Could you specify which OS and library are you using and also the directory structure(which file is supposed to be kept where?) that makes it work?

The latest released version of mrswatson is 9.8 . In the output above, it looks like you are running 9.7 .

9.8 seems to have about an extra year of bug fixes included over 9.7, so it's worth trying the new version and letting us know if there are any improvements.

Yes. It worked. Thanks a lot. I should have figured this out.
