Mind the little "p" button on the right side, therewith
you can save and load single effect presets. That is the
way we do it in guitarix.<br>

<div>I can't speak for Fons but I'll try anyway. I don't
think Fons was talking about whether it was possible to
use presets. I think he was talking about having a
specific set of controls with very specific calibrations
that would synergistically combine with the experience of
an experienced audio engineer so that finding "the effect
I am looking for" was easy.<br>

Okay, I understand that. <br>
I speak about that I use the faust version of zita-rev1, which in
fact didn't have calibrated controls. <br>
Fons was once pleased with it when it was ported by Julius. He said,
<br>
<br>
<blockquote type="cite">
<pre wrap="">Because Julius is a person I respect, and he tried to get
his version as close as possible to the original.</pre>
</blockquote>
<br>
But now, when I implement it in guitarix, this exactly version from
julius, it is marked as a "perfectly reason to leave Oped Source".<br>
I fail to understand that. <br>
<br>
The difference between a Interface produced by faust, and those
produced by guitarix is indeed just the style (color and form of the
knobs). <br>
<br>
For finding the preset you are looking for, the values of the
control could be used also.<br>
<br>
Note that we use the name zita-rev1 for it, because it is the name
under which it is implemented in faust. As we use it as it is, we
use as well this name. We could rename it om request, we could
remove it also , surly. <br>
<br>
But coming along with answers like this:<br>
<blockquote type="cite">
<pre wrap="">If open source is about sharing your work and knowledge I'm all for it.
If it just means a license for cherry-picking without respect for the
original author's intentions and in fact subverting those, then I have
my doubts.</pre>
</blockquote>
Isn't really helpful in this context.<br>
<br>
Just be aware that the main reason for the culprit may be searched
deeper. I know that we are not the only project which use this faust
implementation as zita-rev1. <br>
