  Description     :  audio plugin host supporting  LADSPA, DSSI, LV2, VST2/3
and AU formats

Carla is an audio plugin host, with support for many audio drivers and plugin
formats.
It has some nice features like automation of parameters via MIDI CC (and send
output back as MIDI too) and full OSC control.
.
Carla currently supports LADSPA (including LRDF), DSSI, LV2, VST2/3 and AU
plugin formats, plus GIG, SF2 and SFZ file support.
It uses JACK as the default and preferred audio driver but also supports native
drivers like ALSA, DirectSound or CoreAudio.

The folks at Ubuntu Studio would dearly love to have this packaged for Debian
so that it could be included with Ubuntu Studio as a potential replacement for
zynjacku which has been removed from the archive.

I will consider packaging this when I get a chance (unless someone beats me to
it).
