Hi list.
I generally DI either my electro-acoustic or solidbody into a Terratec DMX
6Fire 24/96. I have managed to get really good latency (1.45ms) with the
rt-lsm, and am now experimenting with effects chains in ardour.
I've started to accumulate a number of useful sounds but they are all saved in
separate sessions and I can't find any way of recreating them without writing
down the settings and rebuilding them from scratch.
Is it possible to export an entire effects chain for re-use in another ardour
session?

I'm not sure about doing this in ardour, but i've done it with jack rack.
jack-rack will save your while fx chain and all the perameters in a file.
you could then use the qjackctl connection bay to route your instrument
into jack rack and then jack rack into ardour, for recording.

Thanks for the answer, Brian. Unfortunately, having tried this I found
Jack-Rack to be a bit resource hungry and I got a few XRUNs even before I
started recording. I tried both using jack-rack as the track input and as an
insert, and the result was about the same.
And, of course there is the fact that some of the sounds I've made have
plugins both before and after the fader, which would mean 2 copies of
jackrack.

It should be impossible for Jack-Rack to cause xruns - this would be the
fault of the plugins you have loaded. Did you load any that are
described as non-RT safe? What kernel are you using?

I might have to take back my comment. I opened up jack-rack to see which
plugins I was using, and try as I might, I wasn't able to duplicate either
the high CPU utilisation, or the XRuns. A bit later on, the problem came
back.
I've also discovered that some of the plugins I've been using don't appear to
work for me today. I think I might have broken something, but don't have
time to dig deeper at the moment. I'll look again when I get back off
vacation.
For the record, I'm using 2.6.11.4-21.10 from SUSE 9.3 (which has the desktop
and bootsplash patches among others) patched and recompiled with realtime-lsm
using:

Thanks for your interest.

2.6.11 is not going to give you great RT performance. If you continue
to have xrun problems I recommend at least 2.6.14, even better would be
2.6.16 with the -rt patch.
