Previously I was unsure whether it will be a set of lv2 extension or
another plugin API, I guessed the former but apparently was wrong.
Does it really need another plugin API in addition to the 5 free and
native (read: non-VST) APIs I can think of off the top of my head?

I'm a very happy user of the decent
FIL-equalizer and so far, it serves all my
needs for mixing down mono channels in mixing situations. The problem is that
a Stereo EQ is also needed from time to time, for example with drums; I'm
thinking about overhead channels. I use to make on bus for the drums and an
additional bus for the OH channels (so left and right OH channels can use
common hipass, compressor and EQs, and deesser (and so on)), then every drum
item is feed into the drum bus and OH's is feed it's stereo bus and from there
into the drum bus; this is probably the most common way to do it.
So my humble (I hope) request is: Is it possible to make a stereo version of
FIL-equalizer and can someone implement it? That would make the mixing
situation very much better.
If you mean the LADSPA plugin, I don't see the problem: Ardour
will automatically duplicate it if you use it in a stereo track
or bus.
And while I'm at it: Is it possible to add a
Hi Pass filter (12(/18)/24 db) on
them too? ;-)
The plugin is frozen as far as I'm concerned, as there
are some new ones in preparation - see for example
<http://www.kokkinizita.net/linuxaudio/eq1.png>.
This one has improved parametric sections, second
order shelf filters (with variable slope) and an
18 dB/oct higpass.
This will be released some day as a series of plugins
(using their own standard) together with host/plugin
libraries and a reference host.
ATM it is available as a Jack app to selected users,
write to me off-list if you want to try it.
Ciao,
