Hi Jeremy, I think you're right. I'd love to be using Guitarix this way
: In a Carla Rack, whether hosted or standalone, and save (File/Export/)
and share my Gx presets as Carla project files. It seems to work. Quite
magically, I must add ; I'll explain: When you load a Qtractor session
and just turn a Carla button, it won't register as a change in the
Qtractor file, the title bar will not say [modified] ; only if you touch
something like mute/unmute a track or something outside of Carla, will
then its plugin settings be saved. I can tell you it's fine with me, I
already have the reflex :)

Wow, this quietly adds Track profiles to Qtractor ;) The other days Rui
and I were chatting
<http://www.rncbc.org/drupal/comment/6962#comment-6962> about having an
optional generic UIs plugin pane (like from left to right) in the main
view, this is very much what I have in mind :)

PS- Your SynthV1 presets are stellar, thanks. Kinda introduced me to the
synth itself (but my lazy ass keep using your presets as-is)
