CLAP: The New Audio Plug-in Standard (by u-he & Bitwig)


Recommended Posts

A new plug-in standard! It's called CLAP and was created by u-he and Bitwig. Well... not that new. It was announced in June 2022. So what's going on with CLAP exactly?

Advantages: 

  • Per-note automation and modulation (in accordance with the recent MIDI 2.0 specifications)
  • Polyphonic plug-ins have their per-voice parameters modulated for individual notes ("MPE on steroids")
  • Better and Faster Plug-in Organization
  • Better Performance From Modern CPUs

there's been a huge discussion on this over at kvr, but right... the odds of apple moving from AUs to a new format are... well, there are no odds. and still waiting to see this catch a fire with lots of developers... seems to be slow going.

either way, for logic users, it's apple's world & we just live in it (unless, of course, we move out)...

Even if Apple doesn't adopt a new format, it's certain that they're keeping an eye on various things happening in the DAW world and may be inspired by some of the ideas and implement them in a future version of their own format, or implement some of the features to Logic pro in some other ways... never say never.
