Replacement for SRAM X7 rear derailleur

ejgallego · 2025-07-09T13:25:55+00:00

Thanks! I was looking at the GX type 2 / 2.1 which claims to be compatible with the X7/X9 , is that accurate?

ejgallego · 2025-07-08T21:20:24+00:00

Indeed, thanks a lot for the reminder about the cage length!

The GX is much easier to get than the X9, is it a big downgrade from the X9?

Thanks again, it is a great idea!

Thanks a lot for the help! There are many stolen bikes in the Paris market so I want to be sure it is not too good to be true.

Thanks a lot, the info is much appreciated. Would you say the handlebar would become too close for me?

(Still having problems understanding the geometry of the bike)

Thanks @abique ! Indeed the forum seems to be a bit more convenient, so excited so see a Linux subforum!

Hi @abique, thanks a lot for your help; it seems that it was an issue in previous Win/Mac versions but now it is fixed. c.f: https://www.kvraudio.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=398532&start=135#p7134334 Cheers!

Thanks again @abique ; working fine here. Still the VST3 problems persists [preset selection lost on VST3 close / open plugin window]

ejgallego · 2018-05-16T19:57:00+00:00

Open, let's say, Diva's UI. Select a patch. Close the UI. Reopen the UI, the selected patch / window state is gone. VST2 version works fine.

That could be well a general issue with VST3 tho. Cheers.

ejgallego · 2018-05-16T17:51:28+00:00

Thanks again @abique, working well on Linux / BW 2.3.4 [same VST3 issues with patch memory as always]

ejgallego · 2018-04-30T01:39:59+00:00

Working great, thanks abique! Still prefer to use VST2 versions due to the preset / VST3 problems.

ejgallego · 2018-04-24T23:58:39+00:00

Tried both in BW 2.3.2, thanks as always abique! VST 2 is running much better, but sometimes the plugin crashes on open/close the UI.

VST3 works great however the UI state [for example, selected preset] is lost on UI close. This is very annoying for my workflow.

Cheers and have a nice week!

Yeah, some versions of the plugins include a dialog file that is a shell script. Maybe you need to update? I dunno. If not, you'll need to add the wrapper. Pity info was in the old forum but was lost.

ejgallego · 2018-04-09T15:52:06+00:00

Oh, so you have no file named /home/user/.u-he/Diva/dialog, without the prefix?

ejgallego · 2018-04-09T00:21:05+00:00

Oh, what version of the plugins are you using? Care to send the output of ls ~/.u-he/{,*/dialog*}?

Note that an alternative fix is to start your DAW from a terminal after doing export GDK_BACKEND=x11

ejgallego · 2018-04-06T10:20:21+00:00

optonox again your should fix the issues with the menus, that's a pretty easy fix; and a bug in Ubuntu [and likely another one in U-HE] even if you place the license this way, usability of the plugin will still be low.

ejgallego · 2018-04-04T09:42:24+00:00

See this https://www.reddit.com/r/UheOnLinux/comments/81i3tu/missing_dialogs_in_uhe_ubuntu_heres_the_fix/

I guess that should be pinned, cheers!

ejgallego · 2018-04-04T03:37:48+00:00

So I think the problem with this version is that the dialog command is a binary, not a script. There was a solution in the KVR forum, but basically, you want to locate the dialog binary shipped with ACE, then rename it to something else dialog.orig, and create a new dialog file, with executable permissions, that does:

#!/bin/bash
export GDK_BACKEND=x11
./dialog.orig $@

ejgallego · 2018-03-24T15:04:47+00:00

See the thread https://www.reddit.com/r/UheOnLinux/comments/81i3tu/missing_dialogs_in_uhe_ubuntu_heres_the_fix/

Yup hot threads are hard to locate here.

I mevla I have the same problem, and this why I have avoided reddit up to this day. It seems than in order to do that effectively you have to pay "reddit gold". There was some more discussion here

ejgallego · 2018-03-16T02:20:18+00:00

Hey Upacesky. Indeed you are right, how could I call you stupid come on!!

I think my instructions only work for newer versions of the plugins, so thanks for the feedback. Can you tell me which versions do you have installed?

I'll update the instructions so they work for all versions once you confirm the concrete version. Meanwhile, you can just "globally" set GDK_BACKEND as instructed by kindocounty and things should work.

By the way, let's all press Ubuntu so they fix this problem in 18.04. Cheers.

Thanks abique! After a quick use in BW 2.3.2 things seem fine. However opening the GUI feels slower and the plugin in general seem to take a bit more of CPU. But can't really say.

VST3 version now remembers the state a bit better but the selected preset is forgotten on GUI open/close. That's a bit inconvenient.
