- Calf is a pack of audio plugins - effects and instruments, currently in
- development. The goal is to create a set of plugins using decent algorithms
- and parameter settings, available in a form which is compatible with as many
- open source applications as possible.
- How to use Calf plugins:
- * LADSPA plugins
- Calf is installed as calf.so library in your LADSPA directory (typically
- /usr/lib/ladspa). It means that typical LADSPA host should be able to find
- Calf's plugins.
- * DSSI plugins
- Calf .so module is also installed in your DSSI plugin directory, which means
- your DSSI host (like jack-dssi-host or rosegarden) should find it and
- include its plugins in the plugin list.
- * JACK client application
- You can also use Calf plugins as separate applications, connecting to other
- applications using JACK Audio Connection Kit (version 0.103 or newer is
- required). To run the client, type:
- calfjackhost monosynth !
- (! means "connect", last "!" means "connect to output")
- Other examples:
- calfjackhost monosynth ! vintagedelay ! flanger !
- (runs monosynth into vintagedelay and vintagedelay into flanger, then to
- output)
- calfjackhost ! reverb !
- (takes signal from system:capture_1 and _2, puts it through reverb, and then
- sends to system:playback_1 and _2)
- You can also change client name or input/output port names with command-line
- options (type calfjackhost --help). Use qjackctl, patchage or jack_connect
- to connect the Calf JACK client to your sound card or other applications, if
- "!" is inadequate for any reason (if I didn't explain it properly, or if it
- doesn't provide the connectivity options needed).
- Keep in mind this project is in the early development phase. It is usable
- for certain purposes, but drop me a note if you need something.
