[ardour-users] Problem with TAP plugins and Ardour, also what stereo EQ plugin?

I can try.  I should have some free time tonight to work on this.

Ive been unsuccessful at that so far, but im planning on looking at it further tonight.
Although i dont have access to my machine via GUI, i was able to start an ssh session
and begin building Ardour2 with 'DEBUG=1'.  Its been a while since i used gdb, but
im hoping it will come back to me.

Thanks

I've tried duplicating this issue but haven't been able to do that.

Can you figure out what in that session causes the plugin to be quiet?
Maybe you could whip up a session for the developers which exhibits this
issue?
