<h2>Where do I get plugins from?</h2>

The following list shows plugin <em>packages</em>. In some cases, a package contains just 1 or 2 plugins; in other cases, dozens.

<h3>How do I install plugins?</h3>
|
||
|
||
<h4>Linux</h4>
|
||
|
||
<p>
|
||
Installation will vary a little depending on how you get plugins. If
|
||
your repository has a particular plugin package, just install it using
|
||
the normal software package management tool for your system.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
If the package isn't available, then you can build the plugins from
|
||
source (plugins are generally fairly easy to compile). LADSPA Plugins
|
||
need to be installed in either /usr/lib/ladspa, /usr/local/lib/ladspa
|
||
or in a directory mentioned in your LADSPA_PATH environment
|
||
variable.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
LV2 plugins are distributed as folders/directories. They need to
|
||
installed in either /usr/lib/lv2, /usr/local/lib/lv2 or a directory
|
||
mentioned in your LV2_PATH environment variable.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
Linux VST (LXVST) plugins are distributed as shared library
|
||
files. They are typically installed in /usr/lib/lxvst,
|
||
/usr/local/lib/lxvst or a directory mentioned in your LXVST_PATH
|
||
environment variable.
|
||
</p>
|
||
|
||
<h4>OS X</h4>
|
||
<p>
|
||
Unless you're a particularly technical computer user, building and
|
||
installing plugins in the LV2 (or LADSPA) format is probably not
|
||
something worth planning on. Ardour releases for OS X ship with a
|
||
collection of many LADSPA plugins, some of which are very useful and
|
||
some of which are outright buggy.
|
||
<p>
|
||
Most of the plugins you are likely to use on OS X will be in Apple's
|
||
AudioUnit format. These have their own installation process that tends to
|
||
just work.
