[Ardour-Users] Qcon control surface support

[Yoann Lubiato]

Hi, i'm really happy with the Qcon, even if it's not as fonctionnal on
linux that it can be on Nuendo/PT, ...
I mean, i cannot control  aux sends, insert parameters, and track
automation modes. 
Anyway, it's really a good device, the faders are good,and touch
sensitive, the big leds make it really easy to use almost "blindly",
and the level  meters are really useful too.
The jog looks a little cheap, but i had no problem with it and is
precise
I'm trying to find how to control the missing parameters quoted above,
but it seems to be hard coding, and i'm not a coder
