I tried the plugin in Aqualung, which is a music player program supporting LADSPA plugins (http://aqualung.sf.net). It seemed to be working alright. If you decide to try it, get the latest source from http://aqualung.sf.net/aqualung-cvs.tar.gz and issue an 'sh autogen.sh' before the usual ./configure, make, make install stuff. If you are able to compile Ardour, the needed libs are almost certainly present on your machine. As this is just a music player, you can't pipe audio through it (since there is no input), but you can export the audio to a track and play that. I'm not suggesting that this is an acceptable end solution, but maybe worth trying out to determine whether there is a problem with the notch plugin or the other hosts instead. Tom
