<h3>Downloads</h3>

Bug reports and feature requests are welcome! Jump on over to the <a href="https://github.com/falkTX/Carla" class="external free" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Carla's Github project</a> page for those.
</p>

<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.
</p>
<p>
Also there are still no official Linux binary builds for v2.4.2.<br/>
Carla v2.4.2 is provided in the KXStudio repositories and in many official Linux distribution repositories anyway.
