Faust LV2 Plugins

This is the home and default URI for plugins created with the faust-lv2 plugin architecture written by Albert Gräf. Faust is Grame's functional dsp programming language which makes programming audio plugins easy and much more fun. LV2 is the new open-source audio and MIDI plugin standard for Linux and other Unix-like systems, successor of the venerable LADSPA standard. The faust-lv2 plugin architecture allows you to create full-blown LV2 instrument and effect plugins with ease.

Please note that this website isn't supposed to look pretty, nor does it provide any real content. It is just a landing pad for the default Faust LV2 plugin URI. The links below will provide you with all software and documentation that you'll need to create your own LV2 plugins using Faust.
