-== Simple Amplifier ==
-
-This plugin is a simple example of a basic LV2 plugin with no additional features.
-It has audio ports which contain an array of `float`,
-and control ports which contain a single `float`.
-
-LV2 plugins are defined in two parts: code and data.
-The code is written in C (or any C compatible language, such as C++) and defines the executable portions of the plugin.
-Static data is described separately in human and machine readable files in the http://www.w3.org/TeamSubmission/turtle/[Turtle] syntax.
-Turtle is a syntax for the RDF data model,
-but familiarity with RDF is not required to understand this documentation.
-
-Generally, code is kept minimal,
-and all static information is described in the data.
-There are several advantages to this approach:
-
- * Hosts can discover and inspect plugins without loading or executing any plugin code
- * It is simple to work with plugin data using scripting languages, command line tools, etc.
- * A standard format allows the re-use of existing vocabularies to describe plugins
- * The data inherently integrates with the web, databases, etc.
- * Labels and documentation are translatable, and available to hosts for display in user interfaces
