There are more and more LV2-Plugins coming out (zynaddsubfx is currently being ported to lv2 aswell) and it has become the defacto standard for audio plugins on linux.
Is there any chance renoise will support this?
Thereās another thread about lv2 support in the renoise 3 beta sub-forum. Apparently itās happening (not for renoise 3 though)
+1 This is one reason I am sticking with 2.81 for now.
Looking forward to the LV2 support!
+1 please please bitte bitte
+1 for LV2 support, also please donāt restrict the LV2 support to Linux. LV2 is able to be compiled for Windows and Mac like VST.
Itās really the one thing keeping me from buying Renoise.
Iād like to be optimistic about this but I donāt think itās going to happen any time soon, look how long ago this thread was started. I donāt know why it is so hard to closed source programs to implement lv2 support. Such a shame.
If LV2 is not supported by Renoise, maybe itās because LV2 did not please the devs. Having all the features ticked in a matrix does not imply that the interface is nice and convenient to use, then it is a matter of taste.

Have you seen the API? Itās much more readable than Steinbergās VST API, for both hosting and creating plugins.

That was my point :^)
Definitely Renoise spent energy supporting LADSPA and DSSI. And as I understand, they tried for LV2. Instead of saying āI donāt understand why donāt implement it, it is much better than X, Y, Z, ā¦ā maybe start asking the devs, ādid you find something wrong with LV2?ā; they already gave some elements. Then you might be able to move forward.
+1 for LV2 support
Cool shit is carla from kxstudio comes as vst plugin. As effect or instrument, rack or graph. Donāt know when it started, or whether itāll save state correctly. Yes, you can load lv2 effects or instruments with it into renoise. I just tried superficially, probably youāll have to go the (crappy resolution) midi way to automate stuff. External carla, choosing virtual in-/outputs with jack routing, sends, lineins and shit, you can even do multi input/output plugins or plugin graphs, like a sidechain compressor - but a mess to work with. No good workflow.
Yes, I can add that from Carla version 2.0, one can load carla-vst INSIDE Renoise Linux. Below is a screenshot of Calf Monosynth (LV2) running @ CarlaRack @ Renoise as a VST (look @ the top-right instrument: VST-CarlaRack)ā¦ and producing sound 
To do this on Ubuntu 14.04, just add the KXStudio repo and āsudo apt-get install carla-git carla-vstā and youāre done.

LV2 plugins are a popular format for audio plugins on Linux, and there is generally good support for them in the Linux ecosystem.
To use LV2 plugins on Linux, you will first need to install a host application that can load and use them. Some popular host applications for LV2 plugins include Ardour, Carla, and Qtractor, among others.
Once you have a host application installed, you can typically install LV2 plugins through your Linux distributionās package manager or by manually downloading and installing them. Many LV2 plugins are open source and can be found on GitHub or other code hosting platforms like SAP
