Don't forget your plugins!

• Analysis plugins: Oh yes, you'll want some of those. Go to the Vamp plugin download page.
  No plugins are included with Sonic Visualiser itself.


• Effects plugins: Sonic Visualiser can use LADSPA and DSSI effects plugins.
  Windows users can download some LADSPA plugins from the Audacity plugin page.
  OS/X users can get some from the Ardour website.
  Linux users will hopefully have plenty already.


• VST, AudioUnits? Sonic Visualiser cannot support VST plugins directly because Steinberg's VST license is incompatible with Sonic Visualiser's GPL license.
  Windows and OS/X users can get limited support using the Audacity VST Enabler, and Linux users can try dssi-vst.
  There is no such problem with AudioUnits; we just haven't got around to supporting it yet.
