[Ardour-Dev] "templates" for <ValueNameList> in midnam files

[Maurizio Berti]

Ok,
I obviously found it out after sending the previous message...
I can create a ValueNameList using the "Name" attribute, and then use a
<UsesValueNameList Name="name_set"/> within the <Values> and </Values> tags.
So far it seems to work, but I'm testing it only with 4.7 (I've some
recording projects in the way, so I really can't update to version 5 right
now), if there's some issue about that for the new version, please let me
know.

Thank you,
Maurizio
