Start ardour with new project from template from command line

Installation & Configuration Linux
#1

Hi,

I’m trying to automate the start-up of ardour with a bash-script.

I saved a template : that’s ok.

But is it possible to make a new project, derived from the saved template and save the project in a given directory?

Something like:

# ardour2 -N given_directory/new_project(.ardour) name_of_template.template

So I don’t have to use the start-up window?

Grtz,

Pieter

this is not possible at present. new feature requests should go into mantis.

@linuxpete: its not on my to-do list. that’s about all i can say.

#4

OK,

that raises the question how to get it on your to-do list ?

@linuxpete

Most likely yes it will be implemented, there is no known reason not to that I am aware of, but it is not high on anyone’s priority list to do so I do not believe. That is why keeping it in Mantis is important, so that it does not get lost.
