You have to copy the vstsdk2.3/source/common/*.h to /usr/include/vst (I think this is a bug. You shouldn't have to be root to install ardour) Put the vstsdk2.3 directory in the lib dir of the ardour source tree, IIRC. (scons will complain and tell you where it expects it if that's the wrong place) Run 'scons VST=yes' (and other options if needed) and 'scons install' assuming the compile succeeds. Put some VST-dll's , like these : http://www.kjaerhusaudio.com/classic-series.php, in a "vst" directory in your home dir and make a symbolic link to that from /usr/local/lib (I think there's a varaiable you can use to point to your directory as well) Start ardour, display the mixer, right-click on the effect box, select "New plugin" and you should see a VST tab as well as the LADSPA tab. - Peder
