I see you have MVerb on the list, but none of the other plugins that
made with DPF.
DPF based plugins are related to DISTRHO, but they are not ports using juce.
See the full list here:
https://github.com/DISTRHO/DPF-Plugins
There's also this collection, which I hope to help officially release soon:
https://github.com/ninodewit/SHIRO-Plugins
Those plugins don't have UIs yet.

Thanks, Felipe, I'll re-write that link to include sub-headings for the
individual plugs. Despite my use of <b></b> people keep missing the
mention of Dexed, Obxd, and your other ports.

I'll be watching them. :)
There are a couple of other projects (new Skeilib, RaveGenerator2) that
are in beta stages for their plugins, I've left them unlisted until the
makers assure of their releases.

I've also added the Radium compressor, faust-vst, RaveGen2 and Speek,
and a few other items.

I just now tested these in Bitwig 1.3.6, excellent results. That reverb
is sweet, ditto for the Larynx effect. Any delivery date yet for this
collection ? Should I list it now or would you prefer I wait ?
Btw, have you tried building Teragon Audio's KickMaker ? I'm hitting the
wall with some C++ errors, could use some assistance.

It's better to wait a little bit more.
I'm planning a DPF-Plugins release very soon, those plugins will come
shortly after.

I don't think you'll be able to build it for Linux.
It uses the 'vstgui' thing which doesn't have an official linux version.
I think that's the only Teragon plugin that is not yet ported to Juce.

Hello Dave,
While I really appreciate your efforts to update your pages, i also wonder; didn't you
announce a few years ago that you couldn't find the time to do this on a regular
basis, and didn't that announcement lead to the whole "database" being
converted/transferred/whatever to apps.linuxaudio.org?
Personally I think it is cumbersome to look up several sites of information when I search
for a certain app or plugin, and would much prefer if we would join efforts and try to
keep it central.
So I'd like to suggest just that,, wouldn't it make sense to keep the apps page at
linuxaudio.org current and collaborate there? I know of course about the lack of
organisation etc., I myself have contributed to an overhaul of the linuxaudio hardware
pages, about a year ago, which lost momentum after some weeks and therefore we have now
about three different pages with related information, just on linuxaudio.org.
Cheers, Edgar

A fair concern, so I'll answer carefully. First, as I announced, I have
given up on the pages linux-sound.org. The *only* exception is the Linux
VSTs page, which I continue to maintain precisely because I saw no-one
else doing it.
Yes, linuxaudio.org needs some TLC, and it would make sense to
collaborate. Alas, these days I'm dedicating my time and energies to
composing, and I have little time for much else. Every now & then I'll
update that page, but that's all I care to do now re: linux-sound.org.
I've received a number of good suggestions for improving the page
itself, and I'll try to follow up on some of them. Meanwhile it remains
utilitarian, unadorned with graphics, unencumbered by ads, and merely
presenting the plugin names and their links.
The lack of organization at linuxaudio.org has a chilling effect on my
good intentions. If the first order of the day is re-organizing that
material, then I defer to my other commitments and bow out. OTOH,
everything I post is freely available. Yes, it's a reduplication of
efforts, but anyone is welcome to the material I post at
linux-sound.org, to add whatever further clarifications they would like
to see there (license, cost, source/binary, etc) and repost it elsewhere.
In other words: Sorry, gang, it's all I can do at this time just to
maintain the list. Incidentally, if you search Google for "linux vst
plugins" the first hit is to my page. The first hit to linuxaudio.org
appears on the second page of Google's search results, it's a link to
the commercial software page.
At 65 time has become something more of a very clearly perceptible
finite quantity.
Cheers, Edgar
Ta very much, , my friend. I hope you're still rocking the archicembalo. :)

FWIW, I just partly rewrote the FAQ entry on VST(i)s on linuxaudio.org,
reorganized and updated the links and added a link to your page under
"Further resources".

I think you should list each of the third-party plugins available from
DISTRHO on their own with their proper names. When I first looked
through the list, I immediately missed Dexed and OBXD, because I didn't
see them listed under DISTRHO. E.g.
[Dexed](http://asb2m10.github.io/dexed/) A VST plugin synth closely
modelled on the Yamaha DX7
Also, Dexed can be compiled from git directly. Here's an AUR package I
made: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/dexed-vst-git/

New subject: Linux VST/VSTi list updated (Discovery Pro)

Dave Phillips <dlphillips(a)woh.rr.com> wrote:
In the list, the Discovery Pro synth. I must say I am not having good
results with it (demo version). The sounds have potential, but there
are too many crackling noises happening. Even if there's one per
minute, it is too many. This is at no oversampling with 4 voices.
There's even crackling that can happen when it does not play any note,
just sitting there. For folks who do not know, the crackling sounds are
not part of the demo mode, as some other demo synths have.
I think I know what it is because some of the u-he synths can do that,
like Diva and Bazille, for some demanding sounds. Fortunately, with
these synths, there is a 'multicore' button that once activated, gets
rid of the noise without sound degradation. IMHO, it seems like a need
for algorithm optimization in DP Pro.
The machine is a i5-3570 CPU @ 3.40GHz with 16GB RAM. Recently the
audio system was fine tuned (thanks again to all folks who contributed
in the thread !! Much, much appreciated) to low latency. It is at
about 5.2 ms, which is great for acoustic guitar recording while
monitoring in headphones.
Back to Discovery Pro, I would go for the synth because I like a fair
amount of its sounds, more gritty than u-he synths (even with the
Deform Diva, which, apart from being wild and whacky for the most part,
they are rather clean whacky sounds). What holds it for Discovery Pro
is the crackling noise which is totally unacceptable. I emailed them a
few days ago to see if that was a known problem and if so, if any work
is being done, but got no reply yet.
All in all, it is a Good Deed to encourage companies that are making
software for Linux as it helps back in return Linux itself by providing
more visibility.
Cheers.

I just tried to test it, but I can't even get Carla to scan the plugin,
even with processing checks turned off. It just hangs without any error
messages to the console. I was trying to use the 64 bit version on Arch
Linux.
Discovery (no Pro) Demo scans and starts fine, but the context menus are
missing the text.
Same situation with Tracktion as the host: Discovery Pro 64 scan hangs,
Discovery has same display errors.

I'm using registered versions of Discovery and DPro in Bitwig 1.3.6. BW
has no display problems with either synth. Sound-wise, the Pro version
works well with my hardware, but some patches are major CPU hogs, even
on a 6-core 3.5 GHz box. I agree that the synth needs an optimization
for multicore CPUs. I also have some of the u-he synths, including Diva.
Some of its patches are heavy hitters too, but overall it's a better
performer. u-he's ACE and Hive also perform very well, in Bitwig and
Ardour4.

Makes one wonder on what kind of hardware they tested it in order to
boast 128 voices. On my i5 CPU with 16GB RAM it crackles at 4 voices
w/o over or under sampling and that, while playing no sound at all.
For the GUI, I see no problem in Ardour 4.

That's worrisome. I definitely don't have that audio problem here, the
synth is silent when it's not being played.
