But because I can't do this, I have to settle with recording the audio of
the synth into ardour, and then use automation to control the params of
various LV2/LADSPA plugins. It has provided some interesting (to me)
results :-)

Hi James :)
Likewise, Hi James. I thought the percussion was very good, but the keyboard
came in, then the mp3 distortion was obvious and I killed it. But the kill
wasn't clean and I had to hunt the player down with htop and kill the top
copy of the player, it was left looping about a bar. I wonder if a FLAC or
ogg would have torn up the keyboard sound like that? I'd like to try one of
those formats myself as it did sound like the beginnings of something worth
listening to.

The MP3 seems to be ok here, but I'm not comfortable with this codec in
general. I guess everything for the keyboard should be as it is for the
MP3. Anyway, I prefer FLAC and WAV.
