Thank you and I will have a look at it.
I do hope its a pebcak error.
For now I am totally hating Ardour. Nothing seems to work in a way I am expecting it.
But first lets focus on why I am not seeing the RedZep plugin GUI.
I also hope this feeling about Ardour will go away soon, because I still think its a great program.
I also tried qpwgraph, but that only confused me more. I did not see my focus solo in there.
Yet in audio setup in ardour, my focus is listed as output device.
To end positive, I am starting to understand the gui a bit, how to switch between the mixer view and the time line of the track.
Click the edit button......
Baby steps, never surrender.
KDE is driving me nuts too. The focus is set as the default device in kde and Alsa, yet when I quit Ardour, opensuse/kde seems to decide I want to use hdmi audio.
I hate computers
Edit: When I click the notes in the piano roll, I see the vu meter move, which points to a pebcak error.
