I've been thinking that it would be good to have a global settings saving
system that allows the state of all active apps in a LAAGA environment to
be saved as a unique session. That way a user could save the entire
current setup, and restore it later, with a single command. Ardour
supports sessions (I think) so that the state of the mixer and arranger,
which are intimately related, can be stored and retrieved together. If
MIDI sequencing is to be handled by a different app then it would be nice
to have the MIDI app's state included in the session. Also if LAAGA
supported sessions then ardour could possibly be split into separate
recorder, mixer, and arranger apps.
Without a global session LAAGA would still be useful, but it would be a bit
of a burden if the state of each app in a complex environment had to be
saved and restored individually.
