-This is an LV2 port of the MCP and VCO LADSPA plugins by Fons Adriaensen.
+FOMP
+----
-It features more precise plugin descriptions (in particular, CV ports are
-distinct from audio ports, and unit metadata is available), but otherwise
-remains faithful to the originals. The code is identical to the original
-LADSPA versions except for some type changes which should not affect output.
-These plugins should be sonically indestinguishable from the originals.
+This is an LV2 port of the MCP, VCO, FIL, and WAH plugins by Fons Adriaensen.
-Documentation for each plugin is included in the plugin's data file, and should
-be available as online help in the host interface. \ No newline at end of file
+There are 13 plugins in total: 1 auto-wah, 1 EQ, 3 chorus, 5 filters, and 3
+oscillators.
+
+The plugin implementations are identical to their LADSPA forebears, except the
+primary frequency port of oscillators and filters has been converted to Hz to
+facilitate use in any host without assuming the hidden tuning frequency of
+AlsaModularSynth. All other frequency ports remain as they were, using octaves
+for faithful Moog-like modulation.
+
+Aside from that, the main benefit of these LV2 ports is improved metadata: CV
+ports are distinguishable from audio ports, controls have units where
+applicable, documentation is built-in for display in host UIs, and so on.
+
+The oscillators and filters are mainly useful in modular synthesizers, but
+since CV ports are distinct from audio ports, they should work fine in
+non-modular hosts as well.
