Hi,

Following this topic with great interest!

In my humble opinion as the distributor of a Multimedia distribution any
discussion of JACK and JACK-transport support in Cinelerra should also
include discussion of adding the LV2 plugin API in addition to LADSPA. In
Linux pro-audio circles LADSPA is certainly still useful but all the new
development in audio processing is focused on LV2 and to a lesser but
increasing extent native LinuxVST plugins. LV2 plugins would have their
own GUI's and not rely on Cinelerra to draw the controls like it does for
LADSPA. The audio processing and restoration capabilities afforded by JACK
and LV2 would be an amazing combination and would be unrivalled even by
expensive commercial editors on other platforms. There are a large number
of free and open-source LV2 plugins available in most mainline
distributions now and the API is quite mature and adopted by Ardour,
Qtractor, Openoctave, Traverso to name a few. Rosegarden sadly seems to be
ignoring both LV2 and LinuxVST plugin support for audio and this will
definitely damage it's appeal for Audio Sequencing in the future although
it is a formidable MIDI and Score editor.

Information on LV2 can be found here: http://lv2plug.in/trac/
