# ---  README for Carla - macOS build ---

What is Carla?
---------------

Carla is a fully-featured audio plugin host, with support for many audio drivers and plugin formats.<br>
It's open source and licensed under the GNU General Public License, version 2 or later.

Features
---------

* LADSPA, DSSI, LV2 and VST2, VST3 and AU plugin formats
* SF2/3 and SFZ sound banks
* Internal audio and midi file player
* Automation of plugin parameters via MIDI CC
* Remote control over OSC
* Rack and Patchbay processing modes, plus Single and Multi-Client if using JACK
* Native audio drivers (ALSA, DirectSound, CoreAudio, etc) and JACK
* Transport controls, sync with JACK Transport or Ableton Link

In experimental phase / work in progress:
* Export any Carla loadable plugin or sound bank as an LV2 plugin
* Plugin bridge support (such as running 32bit plugins on a 64bit Carla, or Windows plugins on Linux)

Carla is also available as an LV2 and VST2 plugin for macOS.
For the LV2 plugin, create the /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/LV2 folder (if it does not exist yet), then copy carla.lv2 into it and restart your LV2 host.
For the VST2 plugin, create the /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/VST folder (if it does not exist yet), then copy carla.vst and carlafx.vst into it and restart your VST2 host.

NOTE!
Carla's LV2 and VST2 plugins are not notarized, so they will not run in macOS 10.15 (Catalina) or higher.
