ZynAddSubFX in Ardour can't open Plugin GUI

[Melkor333]

Hey Guys

I've tried out ZynAddSubFX last week and wanted to create some sounds with it in ardour. I have created a midi-Track where I use ZynAddSubFX as Instrument, but whenever I doubleclick it to open the GUI, I get the following:

But what I want is the normal interface of ZynAddSubFX, like this:

Am I missing some config, or did I install the plugin the wrong way? (i just installed with the arch linux package manager over its repo..)
Thanks in advance for any help!

Thanks alot for this answer! I was a bit confused because of zyn-fusion and didn't find a hint about NTK. Will check this as soon as possible - or buy zyn-fusion =)

Hmmm, I don't use ZynnAddSubFX, but I did run into a similar thing a while back in Ardour 5. I think I was able to get the plug-in GUI by right clicking the plug-in from the channel strip and choosing 'Edit' I think it was.

if i right click on the ZynAddSubFX , then there is no "edit"

Hrmm. I may install it later and see how it works on my system. I do see from the screen shot in your initial post that you're at least getting a generic GUI, but yeah that's not entirely helpful.
