ghostess also comes with a universal DSSI GUI, which attempts to provide
GUI services for any DSSI or LADSPA plugin, and may be used with any

+Note: ghostess does not appear in your desktop environment's start
+menu. This is because it requires a command-line argument to select
+the plugin to run, so it must be run from a terminal (or e.g. a shell
+script).

+This package uses POSIX filesystem capabilities to execute with
+elevated privileges (required for realtime audio processing). This
+may be considered a security/stability risk. Please read
+http://www.slackbuilds.org/caps/ for more information. To disable
+capabilities, pass SETCAP=no to the script.
