Hi

Is it possible to run csound as a native linux vst plugin?

If so how, and what can be done with it (I'm mainly hoping to generate 
sound, but midi processing might be cool to), how do I work with it and 
where can I read more about it?

If not, what would it take to make this possible? Are there any 
work-arounds that I should try?

There is CsVST which has been working on OSX and Window (it
has not been released yet, you have to ask Rory Walsh). It should be
simple to build on Linux (I can have a go one of these days).

But on Linux, you have CsLADSPA which will do a similar job.

CsoundVST compiles on Linux but I have not tried to run it. However, I think it would work either native or with FST.

What would be sweet would be an LV2 plugin for csound that works
similar to the vst plugin on windows. I use the vst windows version
with reaper on vista, but I really prefer to use jack and virmidi on
linux. I don't need to use it as a plugin so much under linux because
of the nature of jack. I can route anything into anything. I use the
seq24 sequencer and can sequence csound using the virtual midi
interface module for alsa. Then I record the output of multiple soft
synths including csound into ardour, without needing a plugin type of
setup. I have a novation remote 25sl controller with knobs so I don't
need multiple mid inputs to tweak the sound. But I've been mostly
using random parameters to weird stuff. I have the pitch bend and mod
wheel controlling paramters but need to add in control signals from
the knobs as well.

At that point when you have both keyboard and knob control you have
all the same features as any other midi controlled synth using csound,
without needing to run it as a plugin under linux.

An LV2 plugin should be fairly easy to write. I've been holding off on
that as I'm trying to use the Juce framework to create a full set of
Csound compatible plugins for every platform. Anyone with a bit of
programming knowledge should be able to look at the csLADSPA source
and hack it with an LV2 example in a relatively short time. Feel free
to question us here if you run into any problems.

Rory.

What is the most used by musicians on Linux, lv2,dssi,or vst?

Lv2 is like an enhanced ladspa. Its brand new but enhances ladspa to
allow for instruments as well as processing. Its going to be used in
the 3.0 release of Ardour.

Where can I download it and try it out?

Ok. I think I should have written VST/VSTi, since I'm actually mostly 
interested in midi driven, sound generating csound instruments (midi 
in/audio out). And I'm  under the impression that LADSPA is strictly 
audio processing (audio in, audio out).
