Ardour 4 install error

Hi all,
don't know if anyone else got this message when installing Ardour 4:
E: /var/cache/apt/archives/ardour4_1%3a4.7.0-1kxstudio1v5_amd64.deb: trying to overwrite '/usr/bin/ardour4', which is also in package ardour 1:4.6~dfsg-1
Synaptic gave this:

Just thought I'd flag it..

No. I had removed Ardour 4, so when I tried to install it again, and remove Ardour (which required removal of Ardour 3), I got this error:
E: /var/cache/apt/archives/ardour4_1%3a4.7.0-1kxstudio1v5_amd64.deb: trying to overwrite '/usr/bin/ardour4', which is also in package ardour 1:4.6~dfsg-1
Now I can't remove Ardour 4 without removing the Kxstudio-Meta-Audio package.

Nope. When I tried to remove Ardour it indicated that Ardour 4 would be installed. But the entire process failed. In other words, I can't uninstall Ardour and Ardour 3.

Yes, I would advise to remove kxstudio-meta-audio package and install all the programs you actually need. I have Ardour 4.7 installed and have no problems with dpkg.

Removed!
Personally, I don't use Ardour; but if I should need it, I suppose I should get it then directly from their website/source?
