Description: LV2 sound effect plugin
B.Spacr is a unique LV2 effect plugin that enables a clear and brilliant audibility of your music production. B.Spacr is suited for any kind of music, including rock, funk, pop, rap, and electronic music. This plugin can be added to each track individually or to the master bus with zero latency. The result is a space-clear sound without any loss of audio signal information and without any artifacts only depending on the quality of the input signal. In contrast to many over-complex audio plugins, the number of parameters have been reduced to the minimum for the best user experience.

Build your own binaries in the following three steps.
Step 1: Download the latest published version of B.Spacr. Or clone or download the master of this repository.
Step 2: Install pkg-config and the development packages for x11, cairo, and lv2 if not done yet. If you don't have already got the build tools (compilers, make, libraries) then install them too.
On Debian-based systems you may run:
sudo apt-get install build-essential
sudo apt-get install pkg-config libx11-dev libcairo2-dev lv2-dev
On Arch-based systems you may run:
sudo pacman -S base-devel
sudo pacman -S pkg-config libx11 cairo lv2
Step 3: Building and installing into the default lv2 directory (/usr/local/lib/lv2/) is easy using make and
make install. Simply call:
make
sudo make install
Optional: Standard make and make install parameters are supported. Compiling using make CPPFLAGS+=-O3
is recommended to improve the plugin performance. Alternatively, you may build a debugging version using
make CPPFLAGS+=-g. For installation into an alternative directory (e.g., /usr/lib/lv2/), change the
variable PREFIX while installing: sudo make install PREFIX=/usr. If you want to freely choose the
install target directory, change the variable LV2DIR (e.g., make install LV2DIR=~/.lv2).
After the installation Ardour, Reaper, Qtractor, Zrythm, Carla, and any other LV2 host should automatically detect B.Spacr.
If jalv is installed, you can also call it using one of the graphical jalv executables (like jalv.gtk, or jalv.gtk3, or jalv.qt4, or jalv.qt5, depending on what is installed), like
jalv.gtk https://www.jahnichen.de/plugins/lv2/BSpacr
to run it stand-alone and connect it to the JACK system.
