+DSSI (pronounced "dizzy") is an API for audio processing plugins, particularly
+useful for software synthesis plugins with user interfaces.
+
+DSSI is an open and well-documented specification developed for use in Linux
+audio applications, although portable to other platforms. It may be thought of
+as LADSPA-for-instruments, or something comparable to VSTi.
+
+This requires qt3 from extra/kde3-compat, ladspa_sdk, libsamplerate, liblo,
+and jack.
