Hi,
I was testing the zynaddsubfx synth- it is a very powerful tool, but I would need to automate some of its parameters, namely the "modulation wheel" - fine pitch bender. As I found out, there is no native connection between internal automation and zynaddsubfx parameters, so I tried another approaches..
At first I tried the note-detune automation editor in piano roll window, but it had totally no effect, no matter what synth, instrument or sample I used and caused crashes quite often. /I am using 0.4.6 on winXP/
Then I tried to use the LADSPA Pitch shifter, but it is not very suitable for continuous fine pitch shift. At last I found some mba detune VST. I was trying to load it in Vestige, but it didnt even load the name and description of the plugin. LMMS was responding, but there was no trace of loading the plugin- no activity nor gui. Many other VSTs work fine.
So the questions are: Is there really no way to control the modulation wheel /and maybe also other parameters of zynaddsubfx/ from lmms? If so, would be the note-detune automation an alternative? Any suggestions on why it doesnt work, am I doing something wrong? About the VST - is there any other chance of using VST effect in lmms except for Vestige? Anyways, looks like there may be some new stuff in bug report soon..
Thanks,
Karel

I found this link in one of the posts. http://audacity.sourceforge.net/download/plugins Quite nice bunch of handy LADSPA plugins for windows, including an agile pitch shifter. But I am still curious about the issues I described before..
