I need to take a look at my Windows installation, that I will delete, because Linux now is fine on my machine, but as far as I remember VSTs are in \Blabla\Steinberg\VST or similar to this and a user can rename and add what ever he likes to this path AND Cakewalk or what ever, will take a look too, to this directory. It might be different for LADSPAs on Windows, but there seems to be still an advantage the way VSTs are used. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-dev mailing list Linux-audio-dev@lists.linuxaudio.org http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-dev
