Re: [LAD] Routing signals in mixer (Ardour, Qtractor)

Is there a similar solution with Qtractor possible for audio plugins that output midi (e.g. audio->midi pitch detection as provided by 'autotalent'), or midi-controlled audio-processing plugins (again, such as autotalent). You mentioned this configuration wasn't possible before ( http://lalists.stanford.edu/lad/2010/05/0369.html http://lalists.stanford.edu/lad/2010/05/0372.html ) -- is that still the case? It seems like the case solved by Jeremy was an "all audio" plugin setup with some extra side-chaining (e.g. http://www.soundonsound.com/sos/may09/articles/cubasetech_0509.htm#top ). What if you want to use MIDI control as your "side chain" ( http://www.soundonsound.com/sos/may01/articles/advancedgating.pt2.asp ) ? Instead of ducking one instrument based on the sound of the drum hits, one simply had a midi note-on/note-off during the hit. Or even better, a Note-on and an ADSR to control the length and amplitude of the "duck".... A good example of this would be using a fast on/off repeating "note" in midi to gate an existing signal -- to give that old school rave sound to synths ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RLjJlUH6eIA&annotation_id=annotation_180… ) or "stuttering" vocals ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YnnDMvdVDz4 ).
