Re: Any plans to support LV2 plug-ins?

Well, I've made a couple of attempts to use Ardour. It's a very powerful 
tool of audio engineers.

For someone more ordinary, like me, who doesn't do much with recorded 
audio, it's way beyond me.

Rosegarden does the MIDI and scoring I need. For a final, complete, 
beautiful score, I use MuseScore.
