Paul, as basic as this may seem, i've written this little gem of info down,
and will duly spread the word. I've tried it and it works, and Sean has
further raised my interest in exploring this 'new for me' side of Ardour.
Might seem obvious, but not all of us were born in studios, nurtured into
adulthood under a neve, sll, what have you. It takes us a bit longer to get
it. :)
Frankly, i didn't know you could have 2 instances of Ardour running at the
same time.
Another pearl of wisdom!
Alex.

This is probably just a way-out-there
nobody-will-take-the-time idea,
but has anyone ever thought of splitting the mixer part of Ardour from
the DAW part? So that e.g. if you do strictly outboard mixing, you
don't need to fire up Ardour's mixer, or more importantly, if all you
need is a mixer and plugin-patch-points (as Alex does), you can fire
up Ardour's mixer standalone?
this idea is based on a misconception about how ardour works internally.
"mixing" is 100% the same as the basic signal processing that occurs on
every "signal processing route" (known to users as tracks & busses). you
can't "separate" this from mixing, but you don't have to have the
editor
involved at all.
if you want ardour as just a mixer, you create a session with only
busses, then you hide the editor window and show just the mixer.
et voila.
