&lt;p&gt;LV2 is an interface for writing audio processors, or &lt;q&gt;plugins&lt;/q&gt;, in
C/C++ which can be dynamically loaded into many applications, or &lt;q&gt;hosts&lt;/q&gt;.
This &lt;q&gt;core&lt;/q&gt; specification is simple and minimal, but is designed so that
&lt;q&gt;extensions&lt;/q&gt; can be defined to add more advanced features, making it
possible to implement nearly any feature imaginable.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;LV2 maintains a strong distinction between &lt;q&gt;code&lt;/q&gt; and &lt;q&gt;data&lt;/q&gt;.
Plugin code is in a shared library, while data is in a companion data file
written in &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.w3.org/TeamSubmission/turtle/&quot;&gt;Turtle&lt;/a&gt;.
Code, data, and any other resources (e.g. waveforms) are shipped together in a
&lt;q&gt;bundle&lt;/q&gt; directory. The code contains only the executable portions of the
plugin which inherently &lt;em&gt;must&lt;/em&gt; be written in code. All other data is
provided in the data file(s). This makes plugin data flexible and extensible,
and allows the host to do everything but run the plugin without loading or
executing any code. Among other advantages, this makes hosts more robust
(broken plugins can't crash a host during discovery) and allows generic tools
and non-C programs to work with LV2 data. LV2 itself and extensions are
distributed in a similar way.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;An LV2 plugin library is suitable for dynamic loading (e.g. via
&lt;code&gt;dlopen()&lt;/code&gt;) and provides one or more plugin descriptors via
&lt;code&gt;lv2_descriptor()&lt;/code&gt; or &lt;code&gt;lv2_lib_descriptor()&lt;/code&gt;. These can
be instantiated to create plugin &lt;q&gt;instances&lt;/q&gt;, which can be run directly on
data or connected together to perform advanced signal processing tasks.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Plugins communicate via &lt;q&gt;ports&lt;/q&gt;, which can transmit any type of data.
Data is processed by first &lt;q&gt;connecting&lt;/q&gt; each port to a buffer, then
repeatedly calling a plugin's &lt;code&gt;run()&lt;/code&gt; method to process blocks of
data.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This core specification defines two types of port, equivalent to those in &lt;a
href=&quot;http://www.ladspa.org/&quot;&gt;LADSPA&lt;/a&gt;: lv2:ControlPort and lv2:AudioPort.
Audio ports contain arrays with one &lt;code&gt;float&lt;/code&gt; element per sample,
allowing a block of audio to be processed in a single call to
&lt;code&gt;run()&lt;/code&gt;. Control ports contain single &lt;code&gt;float&lt;/code&gt; values,
which are fixed and valid for the duration of the call to &lt;code&gt;run()&lt;/code&gt;.
Thus the &lt;q&gt;control rate&lt;/q&gt; is determined by the block size, which is
controlled by the host (and not necessarily constant).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;Threading Rules&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;To faciliate use in multi-threaded programs, LV2 functions are partitioned
into several threading classes:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;table&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;&lt;th&gt;Discovery Class&lt;/th&gt;
&lt;th&gt;Instantiation Class&lt;/th&gt;
&lt;th&gt;Audio Class&lt;/th&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;lv2_descriptor()&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;td&gt;LV2_Descriptor::instantiate()&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;td&gt;LV2_Descriptor::run()&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;lv2_lib_descriptor()&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;td&gt;LV2_Descriptor::cleanup()&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;td&gt;LV2_Descriptor::connect_port()&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;LV2_Descriptor::extension_data()&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;td&gt;LV2_Descriptor::activate()&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td&gt;LV2_Descriptor::deactivate()&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;/table&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The rules that hosts MUST follow are:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;When any function is running for a plugin instance,
no other function in the same class may run for that instance.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;When a &lt;em&gt;Discovery&lt;/em&gt; function is running,
no other functions in the same shared object file may run.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;When an &lt;em&gt;Instantiation&lt;/em&gt; function is running for a plugin instance,
no other functions for that instance may run.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Any simultaneous calls that are not explicitly forbidden by these rules are
allowed. For example, a host may call &lt;code&gt;run()&lt;/code&gt; for two different
plugin instances simultaneously.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Plugin functions in any class MUST NOT manipulate any state which might
affect other plugin or host code, e.g. by using non-reentrant global
functions.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Extensions to this specification which add new functions MUST declare in
which of these classes the functions belong, define new classes for them, or
otherwise precisely describe their threading rules.&lt;/p&gt;

</rdfs:subClassOf>
<ns0:documentation>
&lt;p&gt;The class which represents an LV2 port.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;All LV2 port descriptions MUST have a rdf:type that is one of lv2:Port
lv2:InputPort or lv2:OutputPort. Additionally there MUST be at least one other
rdf:type which more precisely describes type of the port
(e.g. lv2:AudioPort).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Hosts that do not support a specific port class MUST NOT instantiate the
plugin, unless that port has the connectionOptional property set (in which case
the host can simply &lt;q&gt;connect&lt;/q&gt; that port to NULL). If a host is interested
in plugins to insert in a certain signal path (e.g. stereo audio), it SHOULD
consider all the classes of a port to determine which ports are most suitable
for connection (e.g. by ignoring ports with additional classes the host does
not recognize).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A port has two identifiers: a (numeric) index, and a (textual) symbol.
The index can be used as an identifier at run-time, but persistent references
to ports (e.g. in a saved preset) MUST use the symbol. A symbol is guaranteed
to refer to the same port on all plugins with a given URI. An index does NOT
necessarily refer to the same port on all plugins with a given URI (i.e. the
index for a port may differ between plugin binaries).&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Ports of this type have the same buffer format as an lv2:AudioPort, except

lv2:ControlPort, a CVPort SHOULD have properties describing its value

user as a control.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It is generally safe to connect an audio output to a CV input, but not vice
versa. Hosts SHOULD take care to prevent data from a CVPort port from being
used as audio.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This property provides a way to group plugins and/or related resources. A
project may have useful metadata common to all plugins (such as homepage,
author, version history) which would be wasteful to list separately for each
plugin.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Grouping via projects also allows users to find plugins in hosts by project,
which is often how they are remembered. For this reason, a project that
contains plugins SHOULD always have a doap:name. It is also a good idea for
each plugin and the project itself to have an lv2:symbol property, which allows
nice quasi-global identifiers for plugins, e.g. &lt;q&gt;myproj.superamp&lt;/q&gt; which
can be useful for display or fast user entry.&lt;/p&gt;

<ns0:documentation>
&lt;p&gt;The prototype to inherit properties from.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This property can be used to &lt;q&gt;include&lt;/q&gt; common properties in several
descriptions. If a plugin has a prototype, then the host must load all the
properties for the prototype as if they were properties of the plugin. That
is, if &lt;code&gt;:plug lv2:prototype :prot&lt;/code&gt;, then for each triple &lt;code&gt;:prot
p o&lt;/code&gt;, the triple &lt;code&gt;:plug p o&lt;/code&gt; should be loaded.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This facility is useful for distributing text-only plugins that rely on a
common binary, by referring to a prototype which is installed by the
corresponding software, along with the plugin binary.&lt;/p&gt;

<rdfs:label>minor version</rdfs:label>
<ns0:documentation>
&lt;p&gt;The minor version of an LV2 Resource. This, along with lv2:microVersion, is
used to distinguish between different versions of the &lt;q&gt;same&lt;/q&gt; resource,
e.g. to load only the bundle with the most recent version of a plugin. An LV2
version has a minor and micro number with the usual semantics:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;The minor version MUST be incremented when backwards (but not
forwards) compatible additions are made, e.g. the addition of a port to a
plugin.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;The micro version is incremented for changes which do not affect
compatibility at all, e.g. bug fixes or documentation updates.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Note there is deliberately no major version; all versions with the same URI
are compatible by definition. Replacing a resource with a newer version of
that resource MUST NOT break anything. If a change violates this rule, then
the URI of the resource (which serves as the major version) MUST be
changed.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Plugins and extensions MUST adhere to at least the following rules:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;All versions of a plugin with a given URI MUST have the &lt;q&gt;same&lt;/q&gt; set of
mandatory (i.e. not lv2:connectionOptional) ports with respect to lv2:symbol
and rdf:type. In other words, every port on a particular version is guaranteed
to exist on a future version with same lv2:symbol and at least those
rdf:types.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;New ports MAY be added without changing the plugin URI if and only if they
are lv2:connectionOptional and the minor version is incremented.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;The minor version MUST be incremented if the index of any port (identified
by its symbol) is changed.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;All versions of a specification MUST be compatible in the sense that an
implementation of the new version can interoperate with an implementation of
any previous version.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Anything that depends on a specific version of a plugin (e.g. a
serialisation that references ports by index) MUST refer to the plugin by both
URI and version. However, implementations should be tolerant and extensions
should be designed such that there is no need to do this (e.g. indices should
only be meaningful for a particular plugin &lt;em&gt;instance&lt;/em&gt; at run-time).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;When hosts discover several installed versions of a resource, they SHOULD
warn the user and load only the most recent version.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;An odd minor &lt;em&gt;or&lt;/em&gt; micro version, or minor version zero, indicates
that the resource is a development version. Hosts and tools SHOULD clearly
indicate this wherever appropriate. Minor version zero is a special case for
pre-release development of plugins, or experimental plugins that are not
intended for stable use at all. Hosts SHOULD NOT expect such a plugin to
remain compatible with any future version. If possible, hosts SHOULD hide such
plugins from users unless an &lt;q&gt;experimental&lt;/q&gt; option is enabled.&lt;/p&gt;

version numbers MUST always be maintained for any versioned resource that is

version in source control, the micro version MUST be incremented (to an odd

<rdfs:label>binary</rdfs:label>
<ns0:documentation>
&lt;p&gt;The binary of an LV2 resource. The value of this property must be a URI that
resolves to a shared library object (the actual type of this library is system
specific).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This is a required property of a Plugin which MUST be included in the
bundle's manifest.ttl file. The lv2:binary of an lv2:Plugin is the shared
object containing the &lt;code&gt;lv2_descriptor()&lt;/code&gt; or
&lt;code&gt;lv2_lib_descriptor()&lt;/code&gt; function which can be used to access the
descriptor for that plugin. This property may be used similarly by extensions
to relate other resources to their implementations.&lt;/p&gt;

<rdfs:label>applies to</rdfs:label>
<ns0:documentation>
&lt;p&gt;Specifies that a resource is related to a plugin. This is primarily intended
for discovery purposes: bundles that describe resources that work with
particular plugins (e.g. presets or user interfaces) SHOULD use this predicate
in manifest.ttl to relate the resource to the applicable
plugin(s), e.g.:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;pre class=&quot;turtle-code&quot;&gt;
&amp;lt;thing&amp;gt;
a ext:Thing ;
lv2:appliesTo &amp;lt;plugin&amp;gt; ;
rdfs:seeAlso &amp;lt;thing.ttl&amp;gt; .
&lt;/pre&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Particularly for large amounts of data, this is preferable to
extending the plugin description with rdfs:seeAlso since the host may choose
if/when to load the data, knowing that it describes an additional resource and
not the plugin itself.&lt;/p&gt;

<rdfs:label>Parameter</rdfs:label>
<ns0:documentation>
&lt;p&gt;A parameter, i.e. a recognized property. A parameter is a designation for a
control.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A parameter defines the &lt;em&gt;meaning&lt;/em&gt; of a control (not the
&lt;em&gt;method&lt;/em&gt; of conveying its value). The standard way of exposing a plugin
parameter is via an lv2:ControlPort, which can be given a parameter designation
with lv2:designation. Other methods, such as setting dynamic parameters via

<rdfs:label>designation</rdfs:label>
<ns0:documentation>
&lt;p&gt;Indicates a channel or parameter designation.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This property is used to give the port's contents a well-defined meaning.
For example, if a port has lv2:designation eg:gain, then the value of that port
represents the eg:gain of the plugin instance.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Ports should be given designations whenever a well-defined designation
exists. This allows the host to act more intelligently and/or provide a more
effective user interface. For example, if the plugin has a BPM parameter, the
host may automatically set that parameter to the current tempo.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Whether or not processing is currently enabled, that is, not bypassed.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If this value is greater than zero, the plugin processes normally. If this
value is zero, the plugin is expected to bypass all signals unmodified. The
plugin must provide a click-free transition between the enabled and disabled

plugin MUST satisfy all of the following:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ol&gt;
&lt;li&gt;The plugin MUST NOT use malloc(), free() or other heap memory management
functions within its Audio class functions.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;The plugin MUST NOT attempt to make use of any library functions in its
Audio class functions, unless those functions themselves adhere to these
rules (i.e. are hard realtime safe). The plugin MAY assume the standard C
and C math library functions are safe.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;The plugin will not access files, devices, pipes, sockets, IPC or any other
mechanism that might result in process or thread blocking within its Audio
class functions.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;The plugin will take an amount of time to execute a run() call
approximately of form &lt;code&gt;A + B * sample_count&lt;/code&gt; where &lt;code&gt;A&lt;/code&gt;
and &lt;code&gt;B&lt;/code&gt; depend on the machine and host in use. This amount of
