- internal patchbay mode - not available for non-jack drivers - for those use the internal carla-patchbay plugin - no CV yet sorry + Hello again everyone, we're glad to bring to you the 3rd beta of the upcoming Carla 2.0 release.
+ There have been quite a few nice features implemented since beta2; here are the highlights.

+ +

Highlights

+ +
+internal-patchbay + +

Internal Patchbay

+

+ This new engine processing mode is similar to what JACK does for all clients and what other modular applications do.
+ Every plugin gets its own canvas group and ports allowing you to interconnect plugin audio and MIDI.
+ You can use this mode to build complex plugin routing scenarios, perhaps involving several layers of rack and patchbays.
+
+ Note that this is currently not available for non-JACK drivers; but for those you can use the internal carla-patchbay plugin.
+ There's no support for LV2 Control-Voltage ports as of yet, this will be implemented in the next beta together with MIDI-OSC.
+

+
+ +


+ +
+new-look + +

Carla as VST plugin (Linux only)

+

+ With the first beta of Carla 2.0 we introduced Carla as a plugin, which worked as both internal and LV2.
+ Now Carla is available as a VST plugin too, allowing you to load it all DAWs released for Linux.
+ There are 4 variants: Rack-Synth, Rack-FX, Patchbay-Synth and Patchbay-FX.
+

+
+ +


+ +
+lmms-plugin + +

Carla LMMS Plugin

+

+ Carla has an LMMS plugin too, as Carla-Patchbay and Carla-Rack instruments.
+ So finally you can use native softsynths within LMMS!
+ The carla-lmms plugin code is already in LMMS and will be part of its 1.1 release.
+
+ If you're using the KXStudio repositories and feel like giving it a try simply install carla-git and lmms.
+

+
+ +


+ +
+au-plugins + +

AU Plugins (MacOS only)

- time panel, very incomplete + AU plugins are working in Carla now.
+ Carla's plugin compatibility increases once more.

+
+ +


+ +
+updated-skins + +

New and updated skins

- new openav skin, updated calf and zyn - old mode is possible too + There's a new OpenAV-style plugin slot skin.
+ Calf and ZynFX have been updated.
+ More to come soon.

+
+ +


+ +
+no-skins + +

Old non-skin mode

- carla-lmms, both rack and patchbay + You can now use the old non-skin mode from Carla 1.x series.
+ This saves space if you load lots of plugins at once.

+
+ +


+ +

More stuff

+

- AU plugins working now + There will still be 1 or 2 more beta releases before going for a release candidate, so expect more cool stuff soon!

+ +

Downloads

- fast LV2 discovery, but without plugin checks or testing + To download Carla binaries or source code, jump into the KXStudio downloads section.
+ If you're using the KXStudio repositories, you can simply install "carla-git" instead (plus "carla-lv2" and "carla-vst" if you're so inclined).
+ Bug reports and feature requests are welcome! Jump into the Carla's Github project page for those.
