Hi HC,

I didn't know that LADSPA worked on Mac OS X, that would be good to have in Pd-extended. Any volunteers? Also, with MinGW, you might just get LADSPA working on Windows. For example, about half of /externals/ compiled with MSVC. I think all except [shell] compiled with MinGW.
The folks at Ardour.org have even been so kind as to provide DMG installers for several of the LADPSA plugin libraries:

I don't see the BLOP library there, which is a bit of a pity because that was one of my problem libraries when I did some research on Linux apps for OSX last October:

You could follow the thread to see some of the authors' suggestions. Stephane Letz suggested replacing -shared with -bundle in the makefile to get BLOP and some other LADSPAs to compile:

I guess [plugin~] would need to be compiled for LADSPA support, right? I don't find [plugin~] in your extended installers, HC, so I couldn't check and see if the LADSPA libs work "out of the box".
best, d.
