DISTRHO Ildaeil

DISTRHO Ildaeil is mini-plugin host working as a plugin, allowing one-to-one plugin format reusage. Load a VST2 plugin inside a LV2 host, or an LV2 plugin on a VST3 host, etc.

The current formats Ildaeil can work as are:

• JACK/Standalone
• LV2
• VST2
• VST3

And it can load the following plugin formats:

• JACK (applications as plugins, Linux only)
• LADSPA
• DSSI
• LV2
• VST2
• VST3
• AU (macOS only)

Additionally the following files can be loaded:

• Audio files (synced to host transport)
• MIDI files (aligned to real/wall-clock time, synced to host transport)
• SF2/3 files (through internal FluidSynth)
• SFZ files (through internal SFZero)

Ildaeil basically works as a mini-wrapper around Carla, leveraging it for all its host support.

The name comes from the korean 일대일, which means “one to one”.
