+Calf "legacy" audio plugin pack for LADSPA and JACK. Contains effects
+(flanger, reverb, tape-like delay, phaser, rotary speaker, multi-mode
+filter, multi-tap chorus and compressor) and instruments (organ simulator
+and a monophonic synthesizer). This is the last release of Calf that
+supports LADSPA.
+
+This build only contains LADSPA plugins. It can be installed on the same
+system as the main "calf" build without conflict. If you're looking for
+LV2 plugins and/or the standalone calfjackhost, see the main "calf" build.
+The main purpose for calf-ladspa is to allow old Ardour/etc sessions
+to keep working after upgrading calf to the new non-LADSPA version. New
+projects should use the LV2 plugins in the calf build, since that's what
+upstream supports.
+
+If you're looking for DSSI, please contact the script maintainer. Adding
+DSSI to this build is possible, but more work than I want to do unless
+someone actually *needs* it for opening old sessions.
