Hi Paul,

the problem is that ALSA sequencer support was added to ecasound-2.4.3 and
you are using ecasound-2.4.2. So you'll need to upgrade. Otherwise your
setup looks ok.
Oops; my bad. 2.4.2 is the latest in Planet CCRMA. I was wondering
why the man page had so little to say about alsaseq.
I get that plate reverb error no matter what options I use. Is that
something in my system configuration?
[paul@localhost paul]$ ecasound -i jack -o jack

This is perhaps not the best possible error message for the situation... will
be fixed in a later release.

Thanks Kai.
By the way, I'm just trying to use ecasound as a command line ladspa
host. Is there a simpler way to do this, or will I just have to write
some scripts? Is it possible to use the interactive mode to add a
ladspa plugin on the fly?
One last comment: I was surprised that ecasound exits when the jack
mode is "recv" and I stop the transport. I suppose that is the
intended behavior?
