so, does each midi note have its own parameter? or how else are you
encoding the data? obviously things like pitch wheel need to be passed
on too.. wont this get a bit OTT compared to MIDI, which does define a
featureful encoding with minimal overhead..

are there any plugins / hosts which do this? i'm very interested since

ardour will bind any MIDI CC to any LADSPA parameter. it also maps
NoteOn/NoteOff to any LADSPA parameter, with the intent that it be
used to drive a switch. result: LADSPA has no clue about MIDI, but any
LADSPA plugin running inside ardour can be "completely controlled"
from MIDI. >Someone suggested LADSPA but I do not see an
easy way to do it since LADSP
A
does not
support MIDI and this seems a VST2 instrument.
feel the same way about MIDI in VST
ie. that the host should convert
all MIDI data to plugin parameter changes and use a non-MIDI API for
note on/note off etc. you probably don't want to run amsynth in ardour,
though.
erm, any particular reasons?
rather than FX plugins. steinberg just released a
realtime VST host
specifically to host VSTi's (instruments); ecamegapedal is cool, but a
JACK-ified LADSPA instrument host would be better yet.
Well i was working on this type of host program, but for the plugin spec
im now using in amsynth. Obviously if LADSPA is really feasible for this
kind of thing, i'd want to get that working..
