What are you using to replace it ?
Greets,

Isn't one
of those languages already able to spit out various plug-in
formats and/or at least C code? Was it csound, supercollider or chuck?
I guess you refer to Faust which can generate several formats and plugins
http://faust.grame.fr/
There is also csLadspa which converts csound patches to Ladspa plugins.
But actually you guys lost me a bit, what is so important about the
plugin paradigma? The only benefit I can see is total recall but apart
from it I see no use over using stand alone applications. The
plugin
idea comes from closed source environment which doesnt allow to make
interapplication connection like you can do now and here with Jack and
Alsamidi.
