But in the end Dave, and will significant kind help from the guys on the
Ardour-Dev chat server, I now have the full version of NI's Battery
working under jack_fst-1.2/fst_1.6/wine-20040505 and it works perfectly
as far as I can tell. It hasn't crashed on my once in a few hours of
using it. The GUI seems perfect. sound it great. Hooks up to Rosegarden
and the timing seems good to me. (Not that much testing, but come
certainly.)

The only problem I had was that for some reason the second disk, which
contains all the drum kits, reads in correupted files on my Linux box.
The CD is fine itself. I took the files in question, saved them on a
windows machine, and then wrote a new CD. That CD copied just fine.

This is NOT a copy protected CD so it's nothing like that. It just
doesn't read correctly and puts corrupted files on my drive. Strange...

Very cool to be able to run this run drum sampler on my Linux box!

I entered it on Tim's Linux VST site.

cheers,
Mark
