OPTIONS

48        How to use Calf plugins:
49
50        * LV2 plugins
51              Calf  is  installed  as  calf.lv2  library in your LV2 directory
52              (typically /usr/lib/lv2). It means that typical LV2 hosts should
53              be able to find Calf's plugins.
54
55
56        * JACK client application
57              You  can  also use Calf plugins as one or more separate applica‐
58              tions, connecting to other applications using JACK Audio Connec‐
59              tion  Kit  (version  0.103  or  newer  is  required). To run the
60              client, type:
61
62                      calfjackhost monosynth !
63
64              (! means "connect", last "!" means "connect to output")
65
66              Other examples:
67
68                      calfjackhost monosynth ! vintagedelay ! flanger !
69
70              (runs monosynth into vintagedelay and vintagedelay into flanger,
71              then to output)
72
73                      calfjackhost ! reverb !
74
75              (takes  signal  from  system:capture_1  and  _2, puts it through
76              reverb, and then sends to system:playback_1 and _2)
