I haven't kept up with what has been stated in this
thread. I am an experienced audio engineer who knows
what he wants and I think Mark has a legitimate
argument. It's useful to provide some presets that
help people experience something decent.

Mark, have you tried the TAP reverb? I very quickly
reviewed it and concluded that I could mix with it. I
believe there are a number of presets. Give it a shot
if you haven't already. I think Tom provides some real
good introductory documentation to all his tools.

I don't use alot of LADSPA plugins because I mix with
an external consol. If I needed to use LADSPA I would
get decent results. Well, I didn't really provide you
with any useful information but what the heck.
