I saw immediate potential for that as a way to play with post-processing my recordings to try to make up for my absolutely dismal acoustic environment, but it took years before it ever worked well enough to use, and I finally had to sell out and trade system stability to pay the price for that. It's been an uneasy thing, and the irony is that I haven't actually used it for anything yet. I'm too busy to have time for a full blown multi-track, audio-intensive project anyway. > Of course, the reason I knew nothing about effects plugins was related > to the fact that I had no particular need for audio recording and > playback, so it's not surprising that I saw it as next to useless. And hey, don't get me wrong on the synth plugin front. It's icing to me, sure, but extremely tasty icing. It's one of the coolest things I've seen in years as far as the potential it has. It's just the realization so far has been pretty limited. > It's not VST vs non-VST so much as having a workable armoury of synths > of any sort. There just aren't enough DSSI ones yet.

I'll be happy to see a passle of DSSI plugins develop so I can push back or entirely avoid all those winey ones. I really should get that working at least far enough to reach a point where I can talk about it in more than a theoretical way though. -- Michael McIntyre ---- Silvan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Linux fanatic, and certified Geek; registered Linux user #243621 http://www.geocities.com/Paris/Rue/5407/ http://rosegarden.sourceforge.net/tutorial/ ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: YOU BE THE JUDGE.
