HiOver the weekend I purchased the Dunes of Arrakis Unify patch library for Dune 3, and Dune 3 from Synapse Audio. After I installed both and wasn't able to use the patch library in Unify, I realized that the Dune 3 installation package for Mac (version 3.5.5) didn't include a VST/VST2 option. It did include VST3, AU, AAX and NKS presets. Later I found a post on KVR Audio from Synapse Audio saying that they have stopped distributing VST2 for Mac. I believe in some cases Unify will work with VST3 versions of plugins. Is there a way I can load the Dune 3 VST3 in Unify? Only the VST3 and AU plugins of Dune 3 are showing in the Unify Plugin GUI.

You certainly can scan the VST3 version of Dune 3 or indeed any plug-in into Unify's Known Plug-Ins list, at which point you should be able to load it in Unify and select any of the Dunes of Arrakis patches within Dune 3 itself. Unlike your DAW, Unify doesn't try to "magically" find new plug-ins. You need to identify them explicitly to add them to its Known Plug-Ins list. There are three basic ways, and for either you need to click the plug icon at bottom right in Unify to go to the Known Plug-Ins list, then:


If you have Dunes of Arrakis for Unify, the unified and bonus patches won't work, because they were built with (an older version of) the VST2 version of Dune 3. I'll be working with John this week, to rebuild these patches to work with the newer VST3 version.


Hi - Your diagnosis is spot on. Dune 3 will run within Unify on its own as a VST3. But the Dunes of Arrakis for Unify patches don't work with my Dune 3 VST3 version. I'll keep my eyes open for the pending rebuild of the patches. Thanks!


Hi, I purchased Dune 3. I followed the installation directions for my Mac Os. The default location was usuruser/music/Synapse Audio/dune 3. I opened Unify and scanned for "new or updated VST" I went to the default location mentioned above but Unify couldn't locate or scan the default location. Synapse Audio doesn't put anything in the VST, VST2 or Components folders. I know I probably sound like I definitely don't know what I'm doing. And that is very true. These software issues and folder location are definitely not for the newbie. I tried to install John"s Unified Dune patches, but, of course, there were no sounds. Any help, other than---"Give it up" would be appreciated Thanks Frank


On MacOS, there are TWO distinct sets of plug-in folders. Plug-ins are normally installed to the system-wide folders, which live under /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins. You might be looking in the folders under /Users//Library/Audio/Plug-Ins; these are rarely used, and are almost certainly not where Dune3 installs to.


I have only the demo version of Dune3 on my Mac. The plug-in is /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/VST/DUNE3.vst. Rather than running a full scan, I'd suggest you locate it in the Mac Finder and then drag/drop it into Unify's Known Plug-Ins view; see =scanning


@getdunneHi Shane, You're right. There are two set of folders. The first one you mentioned does contain Dunes' Arps, Keys, Seq, etc. There is no mention of Dune in the /Library/Audio/Plug-ins/VST/Dune3.vst folder.


Hi Shane . I'm a JERK! I didn't use the correctDmg downloader. I should have used the "intel" based dmg. When I re downloaded, I saw Dune in the VST folder. I'll try everything again. Thanks for you patience.


You might have chosen to install only the VST3 plug-in, when you installed Dune3 itself. Just run the Dune3 installer again and it should give you the option to install the VST (aka VST2) version of the plug-in. On MacOS, it should get installed to the main system VST2 folder /Libraries/Audio/Plug-Ins/VST. Look there for the .vst file when you subsequently register the plug-in into Unify's Known Plug-Ins list.


For compatibility, Coq lang 1.0 installs a theory namedfoo.Bar under foo/Bar. Also note that Coq supports composing a modulepath from different theories, thus you can name a theory foo.Bar and asecond one foo.Baz, and Dune composes these properly. See an example ofa multi-theory Coq project for this.


The modules field allows one to constrain the set of modules included inthe theory, similar to its OCaml counterpart. Modules are specified in Coqnotation. That is to say, A/b.v is written A.b in this field.


Note that Coq lang 1.0 will use the Coq legacy installsetup, where all packages share a common root namespace and install directory,lib/coq/user-contrib/, as is customary in the Make-basedCoq package ecosystem.


is a list of pairs of valid Coq module names and alist of . Note that if a module is present here, the:standard variable will be bound to the value of effective for the theory. This way it is possible to override thedefault flags for particular files of the theory, for example:


are extra user-configurable flags passed to coqdoc. Thedefault value for :standard is --toc. The --html or --latexflags are passed separately depending on which mode is target. See the sectionon documentation using coqdoc for more information.


If the plugins field is present, Dune will pass the corresponding flags toCoq so that coqdep and coqc can find the corresponding OCaml librariesdeclared in . This allows a Coq theory to depend on OCamlplugins. Starting with (lang coq 0.6), must containpublic library names.


If Coq has been configured with -native-compiler yes or ondemand, Dunewill always build the cmxs files together with the vo files. This onlyworks on Coq versions after 8.13 in which the option was introduced.


If the (mode vos) field is present, only Coq compiled interface files.vos will be produced for the theory. This is mainly useful in conjunctionwith dune coq top, since this makes the compilation of dependencies muchfaster, at the cost of skipping proof checking. (Appeared in Coq lang0.8).


When a Coq file a.v depends on another file b.v, Dune is able to buildthem in the correct order, even if they are in separate theories. Under thehood, Dune asks coqdep how to resolve these dependencies, which is why it iscalled once per theory.


Given a coq.theory stanza with name A, Dune will produce twodirectory targets, A.html/ and A.tex/. HTML or LaTeX documentation fora Coq theory may then be built by running dune build A.html or dune buildA.tex, respectively (if the dune file for thetheory is the current directory).


There are also two aliases @doc and @doc-latexthat will respectively build the HTML or LaTeX documentation when called. Thesewill determine whether or not Dune passes a --html or --latex flag tocoqdoc.


Further flags can also be configured using the (coqdoc_flags) field in thecoq.theory stanza. These will be passed to coqdoc and the default valueis :standard which is --toc. Extra flags can therefore be passed bywriting (coqdoc_flags :standard --body-only) for example.


to a dune file, Dune considers all the modules inthe directory and its subdirectories, adding a prefix to the module name in theusual Coq style for subdirectories. For example, file A/b/C.v becomes themodule A.b.C.


Scope database: A Dune scope is a part of the project sharing a singlecommon dune-project file. In a single scope, any theory in the databasecan depend on any other theory in that database as long as their visibilitiesare compatible. A public theory for example cannot depend on a privatetheory.


Public theory database: The set of all scopes that Dune knows about is termeda workspace. Only public theories coming from scopes are added to thedatabase of all public theories in the current workspace.


The public theory database allows theories to depend on theories that are ina different scope. Thus, you can depend on theories belonging to anotherdune-project as long as they share a commonscope under another dune-project file or adune-workspace file.


Inter-project composition allows Dune to compute module dependencies using afine granularity. In practice, this means that Dune will only build the partsof a depended theory that are needed by your project.


This list is built using the output of coqc --config in order to inferthe COQLIB and COQPATH environment variables. Each path in COQPATHand COQLIB/user-contrib is used to build the database of installedtheories.


Note that, for backwards compatibility purposes, installed theories do nothave to be installed or built using Dune. Dune tries to infer the name of thetheory from the installed layout. This is ambiguous in the sense that afile-system layout of a/b will provide theory names a and a.b.


The databases above are used to locate a theory dependencies. Note that Dune hasa complete global view of every file involved in the compilation of your theoryand will therefore rebuild if any changes are detected.


Guarantees with respect to stability are not yet provided, but weintend that the (0.8) version of the language becomes 1.0.The 1.0 version of Coq lang will commit to a stable set offunctionality. All the features below are expected to reach 1.0unchanged or minimally modified.


Authors of Coq plugins often need to write .mlg files to extend the Coqgrammar. Such files are preprocessed with the coqpp binary. To help pluginauthors avoid writing boilerplate, we provide a (coq.pp ...) stanza:


This causes a dependency chain b.v -> ab.v -> aa.v. Now we might beinterested in building theory B, so all we have to do is run dune buildB. Dune will automatically build the theory A since it is a dependency.


Note that mathcomp on its own would also work, since there would be amatchcomp directory in user-contrib, however it would not composelocally with a coq.theory stanza with the mathcomp.ssreflect name (incase one exists). So it is advisable to use the actual theory name. Dune is notable to validate theory names that have been installed since they do not includetheir Dune metadata.


We may also want to build the LaTeX documentation of the theory B. For thiswe can call dune build B/B.tex/. If we want to build all the HTMLdocumentation targets, we can use the @doc alias as indune build @doc. If we want to build all the LaTeX documentation then weuse the @doc-latex alias instead.
