LV2 (LADSPA Version 2) is a set of royalty-free open standards for music production plug-ins and matching host applications. It includes support for the synthesis and processing of digital audio and CV, events such as MIDI and OSC, and provides a free alternative to audio plug-in standards such as Virtual Studio Technology (VST) and Audio Units (AU). LV2 succeeds the more limited Linux Audio Developer's Simple Plugin API (LADSPA) standard and replaces the Disposable Soft Synth Interface (DSSI) plugin infrastructure ("LADSPA for instruments"), adding abilities such as MIDI capability, custom UIs, and a system allowing extensibility of the initial standard. Over twelve hundred plugins are now available in LV2 format. Notable plugins include Calf Studio Gear. Software that can host LV2 plugin "bundles" includes Ardour, Ingen, Carla (of KXStudio), Qtractor, Traverso DAW, Harrison Mixbus, MusE, Audacity, Ecasound, FFmpeg, Guitarix, the GStreamer framework and DJing software Mixxx, with currently partial support in LMMS and REAPER. It is also the plugin format used by the MOD Duo and MOD Duo X, Zynthian, and Poly Effects Digit/Beebo hardware units. Isla Instruments provides an FX expansion card for their S2400 sampling drum machine that can run LV2 plugins.
