[LAD] question re: latency of native Linux VSTs

[Filipe Lopes]

You can take the latest git by using:
git clone git://distrho.git.sf.net/gitroot/distrho/distrho --depth 1

but I don't but I recommend it right now. The current build system
(premake) uses static build flags, and would require a lot of manual
editing to set it differently.
one of my targets once I get everything working with the latest juce-git is
to port the build system to cmake. when that happens it will be much easier
to compile the plugins.
(juce itself is not needed, it pre-included in the repo - and has custom
patches)

Did you also tested the loomer plugins? how do they behave compared to the
disthro ports?
