Description

### Enhancement Summary

Image

You can see a setting for embedding VST(i) plugins into the LMMS editor itself, so you can use it without it spawning a new window. can't we do that with zynaddsubfx?

### Implementation Details / Mockup

Perhaps using the QT embedding thing or win32, i dont know.

Research direction

Start by locating LMMS's existing VST(i) UI embedding path and the ZynAddSubFX UI integration. Compare the Qt and Win32 approaches mentioned in the issue, then determine what cross-platform window handling is required. Done means the ZynAddSubFX UI can be used inside the LMMS editor instead of opening a separate window.
