This is good news. I heard some vague rumblings about this a while ago, but I didn't know it was actually happening.
Hopefully a lot of software will implement it soon. If I actually get good at C++, maybe I'll even try my hand at porting a few "open-source" VST's.
There was this guy named Richard Brooks, who created a bunch of knob and slider images (for a Win program called SynthEdit, which I still use). His site's gone now, but I still have those images somewhere. Maybe I can convince him to make them CC, if I can find him...
Speaking of Windows programs, there's a feature I use in WaveLab that I haven't been able to find in any FOSS software. That program has something called a "master section," which is basically just a bunch of slots for plugins. They all effect the sound in real-time, and when you've tweaked them to your liking, you hit a button called "Render" and it processes the active wave files in non-real-time.
I know about stuff like JackRack, but AFAIK you can't render to a wave file except in real time. Also, using Audacity, you can only render one effect at a time, and you can't listen to it in real time (e.g. to edit the file with the effects on). Anyone know of a tool that does this? It makes mastering a lot easier.

I'm not the one who came up with it, but I don't remember who did. I like the Pere Ubu connotations.
And, thanks for the kind words.
I'm deliberately avoiding writing about the whole Linux usability stance. I think by now I've made whatever point I could make.

You could use Ardour for this. or for real master job use JAMin

Check out this guide at the 64 Studio site: http://www.64studio.com/node/823


That will show you how to use JACK to connect Ardour and JAMin in a manner that sounds like what you want to do.* It lets you both effect the sound in real-time and export a file mix into .wav format in non-real time.

Aww Yeah?! ;-)
And can it render a 60-track-mix with individual plugins and all
Parameters in the plugins and in the mixer automized to have that wired
flanger on the voice on two words only and with a sweep thru the
delay-parameter at 2:32 and let the bass-drum become louder at the end
of the song and the guitar-solo wildly moving in the panorama and all
this rendered offline with dithering and exactly to the file-format you
need for a CD and then with the same mix another file for a
movie-soundtrack?

You really should check-out Ardour. It can do all this and more and
despite the myths that are stalking the net it offers a friendly,
intuitive GUI to do all this as easy as possible for such a complicated
task.
