probably referring to samplv1 ?

and no, samplv1 does not make use of the lv2:filename port attribute or 
whatever it's called.

samplv1 makes use of the evil instance-access extension and the unix 
sockets are there only for notification purposes--to let the gui update 
its waveform display or refresh when a new sample file gets loaded at 
the dsp side (eg. state presets).
