Hello,

This may or may not have anything to do with the recent problem using
any synth plugin in Ardour.  This is Ardour version 4.4.0.  The Redux
plugin does not receive the computer keyboard key presses.  A Renoise
developer commented out after replicating the problem:

  "Ardour's window, which hosts the plugin window, grabs away key
  events, so Redux does not receive any key events.
  LXVSTPluginUI::forward_key_event is then responsible to forward the
  keys to the plugin window, when the plugin window is not a GTK
  window."

I am using KDE.  Redux users reported that this problem happens only
when using KDE.

Can it be that likewise the MIDI events from an external keyboard,
though clearly detected by Ardour (see previous screen shots), are not
forwarded to the VST synth plugin window ?

When loading the Hive synth in Ardour, the following is shown in the
Ardour log window:

  [WARNING]: /home/mevla/vst/u-he/Hive.64.so: is a VST >= 2.4 - this
  plugin may or may not function correctly with this version of
  Ardour.
