  • public class PluginLoader
    extends java.lang.Object
    PluginLoader loads a Vamp plugin by searching the standard Vamp installation path, and returns a Plugin object wrapping the native plugin. To load a plugin call PluginLoader.getInstance().loadPlugin(key, rate), where rate is the processing sample rate and key is the plugin key consisting of the plugin's library base name and its identifier, colon-separated. For example, Plugin p = PluginLoader.getInstance().loadPlugin("vamp-example-plugins:percussiononsets", 44100);
