Hi, thanks for filing this. We're going to work in conjunction with the Debian Multimedia team on these, but in the meanwhile, have a look at [0] for the already-existing LADSPA plugins in Debian, and file a sync request bug for the upcoming 12.10 development cycle. If you're comfortable with terminal, you can use the `requestsync' tool.
I do see some vocoder plugins in the archive already, like these: $ apt-cache show mda-lv2 Package: mda-lv2 Priority: optional Section: universe/sound Installed-Size: 2153 Maintainer: Ubuntu Developers <ubuntu-devel-disc...@lists.ubuntu.com> Original-Maintainer: Debian Multimedia Maintainers <pkg-multimedia-maintain...@lists.alioth.debian.org> Architecture: amd64 Version: 0~svn3620+dfsg0-1 Provides: lv2-plugin Depends: libc6 (>= 2.4), libgcc1 (>= 1:4.1.1), libstdc++6 (>= 4.1.1) Filename: pool/universe/m/mda-lv2/mda-lv2_0~svn3620+dfsg0-1_amd64.deb Size: 1345158 MD5sum: f86436a343504a0e6e481f614766fa92 SHA1: 757b6001fb8b6fb44d8c803ffcca040c09d2a06a SHA256: 2b2c5bc4e61f8efaa58c0645377685144d1c5b3ed9cec0caae13f2101c1a1b37 Description-en: Paul Kellett's MDA plugins ported to LV2 This package provides Paul Kellett's MDA plugins ported to the LV2 specification. . LV2 (LADSPA version 2) is an open standard for plugins and matching host applications, mainly targeted at audio processing and generation. . This package provides the following synths and effects: * Ambience - Reverb effect * Bandisto - Multi-band distortion * BeatBox - Drum replacer * Combo - Amp & speaker simulation * De-ess - High frequency dynamics processor * Degrade - Sample quality reduction * Delay - Simple stereo delay with feedback tone control * Detune - Simple up/down pitch shifting thickener * Dither - Range of dither types including noise shaping * DubDelay - Delay with feedback saturation and time/pitch modulation * Dynamics - Compressor / Limiter / Gate * DX10 - FM Synthesizer * Envelope - Envelope follower / VCA * EPiano - Acoustic piano * Image - Stereo image adjustment and M-S matrix * JX10 - 2-Oscillator analog synthesizer * Leslie - Rotary speaker simulator * Limiter - Opto-electronic style limiter * Looplex - Looping plugin * Loudness - Equal loudness contours for bass EQ and mix correction * Multiband - Multi-band compressor with M-S processing modes * Overdrive - Soft distortion * RePsycho - Drum loop pitch changer * RezFilter - Resonant filter with LFO and envelope follower * RingMod - Ring modulator with sine-wave oscillator * Round Panner - 3D panner * Shepard - Continuously rising/falling tone generator * SpecMeter - VU-meter * Splitter - Frequency / level crossover for setting up dynamic processing * Stereo Simulator - Haas delay and comb filtering * Sub-Bass Synthesizer - Several low frequency enhancement methods * Talkbox - High resolution vocoder * TestTone - Signal generator with pink and white noise, impulses and sweeps * Thru-Zero Flanger - Classic tape-flanging simulation * Tracker - Pitch tracking oscillator, or pitch tracking EQ * Transient - Transient shaper * Vocoder - Switchable 8 or 16 band vocoder * VocInput - Pitch tracking oscillator for generating vocoder carrier input . These plugins make no claim of compatibility, or any other relation, to VST. This code does not require the VST SDK, or any other non-free software, and it has never come into contact with any part of the VST SDK.
