Setting up yabridge x64 + wine x64 + box64 on aarch64

[michele-perrone]

Thanks for giving yabridge a shot!

Problem description

On a Raspberry Pi 4B with Manjaro ARM, I am able to launch the standalone version of a Windows x64 plugin that I own (AudioModeling SWAM Clarinets). I do this by simply using together wine64 and box64:

• box64 0.2.0 is installed through the AUR
• wine-staging 7.22 and yabridge 5.0.3 are downloaded from the Arch Linux repositories and the packages extracted to the HOME folder (not installed with pacman)
• these three paths are added to the $PATH: /home/$USER/wine-staging-7.22-1-x86_64/usr/bin, home/$USER/yabridge-5.0.3-x86_64/usr/bin, and home/$USER/yabridge-5.0.3-x86_64/usr/lib

With the standalone version, both the GUI and audio work.

I tried setting up the VST3 version of the plugin with yabridgectl. This is the output of yabridgectl status:

Carla or Ardour are not able to use the plugin. This is the error given by Ardour when scanning the plugin:

And this is the relevant of the output when running ardour7 on the console:

VST3 not a valid bundle: '/home/michele/.vst3/yabridge/SWAM/Clarinets/SWAM Clarinet 3.vst3/Contents/aarch64-linux/SWAM Clarinet 3.so'
VST3 not a valid bundle: '/home/michele/.vst3/yabridge/SWAM/Clarinets/SWAM Bass Clarinet 3.vst3/Contents/aarch64-linux/SWAM Bass Clarinet 3.so'

This last output shows that Ardour is trying to load the aarch64-linux/SWAM Bass Clarinet 3.so object, which obviously is not there.

Is there some way to get this working?
