You have to care about MIDI to some extent. Unless you actually want some
of the features sticking with LADSPA seems like a better idea. The DSSI
API is a bit heftier than LADSPAs.

Not technologically, its just a name. I have some things that would be
better done in DSSI that LADSPA, but mostly things that tend towards
synthyness.
