+TAP-plugins is short for Tom's Audio Processing plugins. It is a bunch of
+LADSPA plugins for digital audio processing, intended for use in a
+professional DAW environment such as Ardour. These plugins should compile
+and run on any recent (that is, not seriously outdated) GNU/Linux system.
+They don't require any special libraries besides the standard GNU C and math
+libraries, which are expected to be provided on the machine used for
+compiling.
+
+The audio processing algorithms done by TAP-plugins are coded to be
+independent of the actual sample rate. The sample rate is always a parameter
+during computations. The plugins have been tested with sample rates 44.1 kHz
+and 96 kHz, as the author uses these values in his studio. Please note that
+although all plugins should be essentially functional at virtually any
+sample rate, the audio fidelity depends slightly on the actual sample rate
+used. Higher sample rate is better, of course. This means that an equalizer
+or reverberator plugin will produce higher quality output, and will sound a
+bit smoother at 96 kHz compared to, say, 44.1 kHz. This is a natural effect
+that results from the fundamental properties of digital signal processing,
+but you should be aware of it nevertheless.
