LADSPA_plugins-win is a project to port Steve Harris's LADSPA plugins
(http://plugin.org.uk/) to Windows OS as DLLs.
+LADSPA_plugins-win is a part of Audacity (http://audacity.sourceforge.net)
+and is licensed under the Audacity license, which is the GNU GPL. See
+audacity\LICENSE.txt.
+
The primary goal is to port these plugins for use in the Windows version of
Audacity (http://audacity.sourceforge.net/), but the plugins should work in
any LADSPA host on Windows (if there are any others).
-Because the GNU C library ("GLIBC",
http://www.gnu.org/software/libc/libc.html)
-#include files typically are part of Linux but not Windows, we need to track
-those too, so another goal is to make it easy to update for new releases of
-GLIBC include files. GLIBC is a big download that changes infrequently,
-and that code requires more changes to work properly on Windows. So, we don't
-keep the same directory structure as the GLIBC release, but instead keep
-them in a simple directory structure that best fits the #include statements
-in Steve's code.
-REQUIREMENTS:
+INSTALL THE PLUGINS:
+Run the installer, "LADSPA_plugins-win-0.4.15 Setup.exe". For the
+installation location, select the Plug-Ins subdirectory of the
+Audacity you want to add them to.
+
+If you have multiple installed copies of Audacity (e.g., stable and beta),
+run "LADSPA_plugins-win-0.4.15 Setup.exe" for each one.
+
+
+
+REQUIREMENTS FOR BUILDING THE PLUGINS:
* Microsoft Visual Studio 2005.
+* audacity\win\LADSPA_plugins-win directory from, e.g.,
http://audacity.sourceforge.net/download/beta_source
+
* Latest plugin distro from http://plugin.org.uk.
* If you wish to use the following plugins, you will need to get the
- version 3 FFTW DLLs from http://www.fftw.org/ and place them in the
Audacity
- plugin directory:
+ version 3 FFTW DLLs from http://www.fftw.org/ and place them
+ in the Audacity plugin directory:
imp_1199.dll
mbeq_1197.dll

LADSPA_plugins-win has been proven with these versions:
- * swh-plugins-0.4.14 from http://plugin.org.uk
* glibc-2.4
+ * fftw-3.1.2-dll.zip from http://www.fftw.org/install/windows.html
+ * swh-plugins-0.4.15 from http://plugin.org.uk
-PROCEDURE:
+BUILD THE PLUGINS:
1. Put the LADSPA_plugins-win directory inside the latest distro
- from http://plugin.org.uk.
+ from http://plugin.org.uk.
+ The glibc and fftw headers and defs are already included
+ with LADSPA_plugins-win.
2. Open "LADSPA_plugins-win.sln". Build. DLLs will appear in Debug and/or
Release subdirectories of LADSPA_plugins-win.
-3. Move the DLLs to the Audacity\Plug-Ins folder.

+3. To use them, move the DLLs to the Audacity\Plug-Ins folder.
+
+
+BUILD THE INSTALLER (requires Inno Setup 5):
+1. Build the Release configuration.
+
+2. Move the Release folder from the distro's copy of LADSPA_plugins-win to
+ audacity\win\LADSPA_plugins-win.
+
+3. Open and compile the LADSPA_plugins-win.iss file in
+ audacity\win\LADSPA_plugins-win. The installer will appear in
+ audacity\win\LADSPA_plugins-win\Installer.
+
+NOTE that because we do not have permission to distribute the FFTW DLLs,
+we're currently just excluding from the installer those LADSPA DLLs that
+need FFTW.
