I have been happy using falkTX's Disthro Plugin Framework:

https://github.com/DISTRHO/DPF

It's very lightweight on GUI stuff, so depending on what you want out of a framework, you may or may not like it.

JUCE is a (very different) alternative: https://juce.com/

If you're doing a sampled virtual instrument, you might find HISE useful: http://www.hise.audio/ ... HISE is built on JUCE.

Michael

Hi folks,

At the risk of igniting a flame war, if one were to develop softsynth
plugins for Linux, what would be the "framework" of choice these days?

Back in the day I wrote some using DSSI, which was a model I was pretty
comfortable with.  I had a look at LV2 but couldn't work out how to
generate the huge incomprehensible non-human-readable "ttl" files.

Where does the world stand now?
