-<p><dfn>Plugins</dfn> are bits of software that get loaded by Ardour in order to:</p>
-<ul>
-  <li>Create various audio or MIDI effects
-  </li>
-  <li>Generate audio by functioning as "software instruments"
-  </li>
-</ul>
-
-<p>Ardour does not come with any built-in signal processors of its own
-(other than volume faders) and it also generally doesn't ship with any
-plugins. They are written by 3rd parties, though we do provide <a href="/working-with-plugins/getting-plugins/">some
-  information on how to get them</a>.
-</p>
-
-<p>
-Ardour supports a variety of different plugin standards:
-</p>
-<dl class="narrower-table">
-
-  <dt><abbr title="Linux Audio Developers' Simple Plugin API">LADSPA</abbr></dt>
-  <dd>An early, simple, lightweight plugin <abbr title="Application
-  Programming Interface">API</abbr>, audio effects only,
-  plugins have no editors/GUI of their own (Ardour provides one, however).</dd>
-  <dt><abbr title="LADSPA Version 2">LV2</abbr></dt>
-  <dd>An extensible, full-featured plugin API, audio and <abbr
-  title="Musical Instrument Digital Interface">MIDI</abbr>, plugins can provide their
-  own  <abbr title="Graphical User Interface">GUI</abbr>s</dd>
-  <dt><abbr title="Audio Unit">AU</abbr></dt>
-  <dd>OS X only, full featured, audio and MIDI, plugins can provide their own GUI</dd>
-
-  <dt><abbr title="Virtual Studio Technology">VST</abbr></dt>
-  <dd>Plugins using Steinberg's VST plugin standard. Varies by platform:
-    <dl>
-    <dt>on Linux</dt><dd>(native) Linux VST plugins fully supported (VST2.4)</dd>
-    <dt>on Windows</dt><dd>(native) Windows VST plugins fully supported (VST2.4)</dd>
-    <dt>on OS X</dt><dd>Not supported, unless you use a VST&lt;&gt;AU
-    bridge plugin. Similar to Apple's Logic DAW.</dd>
-  </dl>
-  </dd>
-
-  <dt>Windows VST Plugins on Linux</dt>
-  <dd>VST plugins for Windows, but being used on Linux. <em>Not

-<h2>Adding/Removing/Copying Plugins</h2>
-
-<p>Within Ardour, plugins are just another type
-of <dfn>Processor</dfn> and so the techniques for
-adding/removing/copying/moving processors apply to plugins as
-well. These techniques are covered on
-the <a href="/working-with-plugins/processor-box/">Processor
-Box</a> page.</p>
