Tom, I've never written a LADSPA plugin myself, so beware! Would it be possible to move everything from tap_reverb_presets.h to rdf presets? It seems you'd have to pass all your filter data through ports. But doing so one could create new filter presets without a recompile. Does that make sense? Control ports communicate single values only. Could audio ports be used to transfer the filter data? Hmmm, my guts tell me this is not 'LADSPA-ish'. Jan
