Plugin Formats:

1) What formats are supported?
All the major linux audio formats are supported, at the moment these are standalone JACK client applications that connect to and process audio via the JACK audio server, LV2 - The emerging successor to LADSPA, and native linux VST - plugins designed to run natively in linux host applications that support the VST standard.

2) What Host applications are compatible?
Here are a few of the compatible host applications, more are appearing all the time:

LV2 Plugins - Ardour 2.8.3 or later, Qtractor, LV2Rack
native VST - energyXT, Renoise, JOST, Qtractor
JACK - Just about any application that can also connect to JACK, of which there are many

3) Do I need a host application?
No. If you use the JACK plugins, they are standalone applications. You connect other audio applications to them via the JACK audio sound server.

4) WIll the LV2 plugin GUIs work correctly in different host applications?
Yes. Unlike many LV2 plugins which are designed only to use either a GTK or Qt host, our plugins are designed to work with any GUI toolkit on any host that supports the LV2 external_UI extension.
