[Ardour-Users] testing OS X native versions (Paul Davis)

[Joshua Parmenter]

Hi Paul,

First of all... this is all amazing! Thanks for yours and everyone  
elses work on this!

There were a couple things I noticed. This are at the inconvenience  
level though:

1) Jack configuration is a little dodgy: I can't change number of  
inputs or output. Also, will it work with the Jack I have on my  
computer? or qjackctl? If not, will I be able to route sound in or  
out from other apps?

2) the apple-` keystroke that usually lets you cycle through windows  
doesn't seem to work. apple-M does let me switch to the Mixer, but I  
can't get back to the editor without a mouse click.

Other then that, a pretty complex project I have been working on  
opens just fine. Looks great, and seems more responsive! Thanks!

Josh

>     1) These are "all in one" packages containing Ardour, JACK
>        and LADSPA plugins. If you have run JACK on your machine
>        since booting, you must restart your machine before
>        testing (the included version of JACK is current SVN,
>        and changes some things that appear to require a restart
>        to take effect).

>        These versions of Ardour will only run the version of
>        JACK that they include.
>
>     2) There is a widespread "bug" in that characters used as
>        accelerators cannot be used in text entry widgets once
>        the main window(s) are open. The underlying behavior
>        here differs from Gtk/X11. I hope to have a fix
>        available today.
