Sorry it was taken in an insulting way. I have a lot of respect for what you guys have done and do. I would gladly pay (you) for software that is relevant to me.

I don't think the code is a mess at all. It runs very efficiently...I had to master an 18 minute track and it did the processing and file creating in around 20 seconds. Sure, I could break things off into more functions and name variables more descriptively.

I know it will not make money, but some of the effects, however, may be sellable as AU or VST plug-ins. Still, I'd rather just focus on Linux development.

If my software is irrelevant than no one should care about the source code, no?

If your feelings are pretty much the general feeling here then I will go.

It's too bad the closed source issue has rubbed you guys the wrong way. The way I see it, I've invested well over 1000 hours and a year of work on something which I ask nothing for in return except maybe a little respect now and then :)

You're not likely to get any respect from this community unless/until you release your source code under a free/libre license. Who have spent decades and 10's of thousands of hours working on projects that we give away freely and openly, your software is irrelevant and your request for respect is borderline insulting. If you're truly proud of what you've created, then show it to the world. You're not getting the feedback you want because no one wants to run your mysterious binary blob, and I don't blame them. You're never going to strike it rich with this software, so the only legitimate reason you could possibly have for not sharing the source code is that you're ashamed of what a mess it is.
