Thats pretty much what I was thinking. It just needs a way to describe
fixed and ranged variable controls for 1+ plugins and a way to describe
the links between them. I'm a bit shaky on the last part though,
especaily as I don't know of an hosts that can run anything more
complicated that a linear net of ladspa plugins. I'm not sure how you
would desribe it.
<connection>
<src plugin="p1" port="output"/>
<dest plugin="p2" port="input"/>
</connection>
maybe? I don't think it belongs with each plugins params.
I've got some ideas, I'l try to write a DTD and send it to the list later
today, but I have to do some work first :( Grrr, conference paper deadline
season.
