Hi Luis<br>
<br>
Thanks for the info. I'd never come across the controllers editor!
Could you point me in the direction of parameter automation in Ardour
at all?<br>
I had tried to use Ardour but the dark black theme that it has keeps
making me think I'm working in a coal mine. I'll give it a go all the
same, and will delight when they release the GTK GUI updates to the
system. <br>
<br>
Many thanks again<br>

</a><br><br>But you cannot automate (yet) things like, for instance, the clipping<br>level of a distortion LADSPA effect. For this you could route MuSE's<br>audio output to ardour and keep them in sync via jack transport, but
<br>this means you have to split your project in two: the MuSE part and<br>the ardour part. It is a bit awkward to set up but it should work.<br><br>AFAIK both MuSE and Rosegarden have plans to incorporate plugin<br>parameter automation and ardour has plans to allow MIDI tracks but
<br>this is not going to happen anytime soon (or is it?)<br><br>HTH,<br><br>Luis<br></blockquote></div><br>
