Add new comment to Problem with Qtractor, plugin presets, and the visual display of plugins.

I've tried using LSP and it correctly restores presets created with Qtractor lv2.

I don't have the latest version, but I always tried work with plugins provided directly by the developer, and I always install them locally.

I use Ubuntu Studio Noble. Could the audio software be seriously corrupted in the MX repositories? Could they be using unsuitable or outdated audio libraries for compilation?

For me, relying on distributions is crazy... I tried download from the developer my essential apps.

Also, I always install my essential apps locally, where you have control over the software's resources and everything can be in the same folder.

This means learning to compile (which isn't really that difficult) or working with an extracted AppImage.

The model imposed by distributions is dysfunctional...

Relatedly... I'm still working towards my dream of having a completely portable Qtractor distribution with pre-installed plugins, presets, and samples.

I've already achieved a portable app (it's not an AppImage, it's simply portable, like Blender, for example) that saves the configuration file in its own folder. Next up is updating the working path of all configuration files when it's launched from its startup script.

I don't know if I'll finish the project or abandon it... But it's necessary to demonstrate that all these Linux problems can be solved by abandoning the distro model, which has serious conceptual flaws.

A distinction should be made between operating system applications and user applications. The distro should only provide the essential ones for the OS to function; the rest should be managed, downloaded, and installed by the user wherever and however they want.
