===Supported engine types===
 +
 +
Zynthian support 3 types of engines:
 +
 +
+ '''Standalone:''' They need a specific engine wrapper so zynthian can "talk" with them.
 +
 +
+ '''LV2 Plugins:''' They must be compiled for RBPi (ARM):
 +
 +
+ '''Native:''' Included in the zynthian codebase.
 +
 +
Support for VST, DSSI and LADSPA plugins has been removed for simplicity, but it could be re-enabled in the future if we have good reasons for doing so.
