<span style="font-size: 20px">&gt; Carla 2.3.1 has been released</span><br/>
On <i>2021-07-16</i> by<i> falkTX</i>
</p>

<p>
This is a bugfix for Carla version v2.3 series, fixing many bug reports and stuff I found along the way.
</p>
<p>
Carla is an audio plugin host, with support for many audio drivers and plugin formats.<br/>
It has some nice features like automation of parameters via MIDI CC (and send output back as MIDI too) and full OSC control.<br/>

<h3>Notes for users</h3>
<p>
This was already the case for v2.2 and v2.3 but it is worth reiterating:<br/>
When using JACK2, the canvas - plugin integrations requires at least JACK2 v1.9.13.<br/>
This is because Carla relies on JACK meta-data in order to store information about each plugin/client,
and meta-data was only added to JACK2 in version 1.9.13.<br/>
Alternatively, you can use JACK1 instead of JACK2, which has meta-data support since a long time.<br/>
Note that the <a href="/Repositories:Extras">"extras" KXStudio repository</a> (which provides an updated JACK2) supports both Ubuntu 18.04 and 20.04.<br/>
The UbuntuStudio backports PPA also provides updated JACK2 packages.
</p>
<p>
There are no official Linux binary builds for v2.3.1 at this point.<br/>
Carla v2.3.1 is provided in the KXStudio repositories and in many official Linux distribution repositories too anyway.
