CLever Audio Plug-in or CLAP is an open source software architecture, application programming interface and reference implementation suite for audio effect plugins as used in multimedia software such as digital audio workstations, audio editing software, and video editing software with integrated audio workflows.
The program used to dynamically load audio plug-ins is called a plug-in host. Example hosts include Bidule, Gig Performer, Mainstage, REAPER, and Sonic Visualiser.Plug-ins can also be used to host other plug-ins. [4] Communication between host and plug-in(s) is determined by a plug-in application programming interface ().
LV2 (LADSPA Version 2) is a set of royalty-free open standards [2] for music production plug-ins and matching host applications. It includes support for the synthesis and processing of digital audio and CV, [3] events such as MIDI and OSC, and provides a free alternative to audio plug-in standards such as Virtual Studio Technology (VST) and Audio Units (AU).
OBS Studio (also Open Broadcaster Software or OBS, for short) [8] is a free and open-source, cross-platform screencasting and streaming app. It is available for Windows, macOS, Linux distributions, and BSD. The OBS Project raises funds on Open Collective and Patreon. [9] [10]
[8] [9] Image-Line also develops FL Studio Mobile for Android, iOS, macOS, and Universal Windows Platform devices. [10] FL Studio can be used as either a Virtual Studio Technology (VST) or Audio Unit (AU) instrument in other audio workstation programs, and as a ReWire client. Image-Line offers its own VST and AU instruments and audio applications.
VST plugins generally run within a digital audio workstation (DAW), to provide additional functionality, though a few standalone plugin hosts exist that support VST. Most VST plugins are either instruments (VSTi) or effects (VSTfx), although other categories exist—for example spectrum analyzers and various meters.
Cubase VST 24 3.7 for Windows: Jul 1999: This version introduced VST 2.0, which allowed VST plugins to receive MIDI data from Cubase. [23] It also introduced the concept of VST instruments - earlier implementations of VST had been biased towards effects plugins - and included Neon, a free VST instrument. VST24 3.7 was the first sequencer ever ...
Audio Units (AU) are a system-level plug-in architecture provided by Core Audio in Apple's macOS and iOS operating systems. Audio Units are a set of application programming interface (API) services provided by the operating system to generate, process, receive, or otherwise manipulate streams of audio in near-real-time with minimal latency.
