The part "What's more confusing is that the frequency can be put below the limit at runtime, but when saving and reloading a patch, it's reset to the limit." actually referred to ams. (At the time I wrote the report, I wasn't clear about the difference and had assumed LADSPA was an integral part of ams.)
That seems to have changed in newer ams versions. The frequency cannot be put below the limit at runtime, so the strange behaviour doesn't seem to happen anymore. Yet the arbitrary limit still applies (even stronger than before in a way). So the actual bug report and patch still stand and seem to be unchanged in lenny, squeeze, wheezy and jessie. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
