Ardour has some support for running Windows VST plugins on Linux, but this is rather complicated, extremely difficult for the Ardour developers to debug, and generally unreliable. If it is at all possible, you are strongly advised to use native LADSPA, LV2 or Linux VST plugins on Linux, or AU on Mac OS X.

The program runs very well on Linux using Wine (a Windows environment for Linux). There are equivalent solutions for running Windows applications on OS X, but we have no experience with them at this time. Ardour users have reported great results using AATranslator on Ardour 2.X sessions.

Tracks using this mode do destructive recording: all data is recorded to a single file and if you overdub a section of existing data, the existing data is destroyed (irrevocably - there is no undo). Fixed crossfades are added at every punch in and out point. This mode can be useful for certain kinds of dubbing workflows, but it not suggested for normal use.

The screenshot below shows a subtle difference between results of an overdub in normal mode (upper track) and non-layered mode (lower track). Both tracks were created using identical audio data. The upper track shows an overdub (the middle shorter region) in normal mode. In normal mode Ardour created a new region which if you look carefully has been layered on top of the the existing (longer) region. The lower track is in non-layered mode, and rather than overlay the overdub region, it split the existing region and inserted the new overdub region in between.

Ardour tracks can have any number of inputs and any number of outputs, and the number of either can be changed at any time (subject to restrictions caused by any plugins in a track). However it is useful to not have to configure this sort of thing for the most common cases, and so the Add Tracks dialog allows you to select "Mono", "Stereo" and few other typical configurations.

midi track controls

To see the full set of MIDI track controls, as shown above, you need to increase the track height beyond the default. MIDI tracks show only a few of the control elements when when there is insufficient vertical space.

A MIDI track has the same basic controls as an audio track, with the addition of two extra elements. The set of buttons below the main track controls controls the MIDI channels that should be visible in the editor. A MIDI track's data may span any number of the 16 available MIDI channels, and sometimes it is useful to view only a subset of those channels; different instruments may, for example, be put on different MIDI channels. Clicking on a channel number toggles its visibility.

To the right of the MIDI track controls is a representation of a piano keyboard called the ‘scroomer’. This performs a couple of functions. Firstly, the scrollbar controls the range of pitches that are visible on the track. Drag the body of the scrollbar up and down to display higher or lower pitches. Drag the scrollbar ‘handles’ to zooms in and out and increase and decrease the range of visible pitches. The piano keyboard gives a reference for the pitches visible on the track. In addition, clicking on the piano plays the corresponding MIDI note for reference.

    There are further options with when solo controls are listen controls: the part of the track or bus from which the listen signal is obtained can be configured. Underneath the ‘Solo controls are Listen controls’ option in ‘Ardour Preferences’ is an option for ‘listen position’, which can be either After-Fade Listen (AFL) or Pre-Fade Listen (PFL). AFL, as its name suggests, obtains its signal from some point after the track or bus’ fader, and PFL from before it. The precise point to get the signal from can further be configured using the ‘PFL signals come from’ and ‘AFL signals come from’ options.

    The solo-mute arrangement with a monitor bus is shown below:

    mute/solo signal flow

    Here we have a number of tracks or busses (in orange). Each one has an output which feeds the master bus. In addition, each has PFL and AFL outputs; we have a choice of which to use. PFL/AFL from each track or bus are mixed. Then, whenever anything is set to AFL/PFL, the monitor out becomes just those AFL/PFL feeds; the rest of the time, the monitor out is fed from the master bus.

    In this scheme Solo has no effect other than to mute other non-soloed tracks; with solo (rather then listen), the monitor out is fed from the master bus.
