caps (audio plugin suite for LADSPA)

CAPS, the C* Audio Plugin Suite, is a collection of refined LADSPA audio
plugins capable of (and mainly intended for) realtime operation. The suite
includes DSP units emulating instrument amplifiers, stomp-box classics,
versatile 'virtual analogue' oscillators, fractal oscillation, reverb,
equalization and more.

By default, CAPS will use SSE and/or SSE3 optimizations, if they are
supported on the build host. If you're building a package to be deployed
on a different system, you might need to set FORCE_SLACK_CFLAGS=yes in
the script's environment, which will completely disable SSE/SSE3 (but
might cause performance problems, your mileage may vary).

The CAPS HTML documentation is about 1MB in size, located in
/usr/doc/caps-$VERSION/html/index.html. If you want to leave it out of
the package, set DOCS=no in the script's environment. Note that the HTML
doc is also available online (it's the caps homepage)... but only the
most recent version, which might be newer than this build.

If you're upgrading from an older version of caps, read UPGRADE.txt.
