jalv is an interactive command-line LV2 host. Parameters can be directly
set when loading a plugin (-c SYM=VAL) and be changed later
interactively. See `jalv --help` it's really straight forward.

e.g. `jalv -c tubedrive=0.5 -c gain=1.0 urn:zamaudio:ZamTube`

If you need both LV1 and LV2 support, give ecasound a try.
