For people using Linux and finding that running Windows plugins can bring creative capabilities and possibilities, linvst has now a variation that allows to run all plugins in the same process space.
Which means ... that suitable plugins that offers inter-plugin communication can now be used on Linux.
For instance some Voxengo and Melda plugins can share data between various plugin instances. It can be to quickly copy EQ curves, spectral analysis, etc. All things that can be done without (of which an extreme expression could be: who needs plugins anyways ? ) but are nevertheless a feature of such plugins. Or can in some cases alternatively be done by saving to file the data of a plugin and loading it in another instance. Or copying the plugin from one track to another, as with Span Plus in order to keep the previous track's data in memory will working on the next. But still, these plugins allows for quick sharing of data between several instances of them and linvst-x allows for this by not running each plugin in its own process space.
All this said, linvst-X is a month old and is made by the people who made linvst. I haven't tried it yet.
