You can try running JACK over a network

I hope there is an easier solution, since pulse on WSL2 can talk to pulse on windows, too

And using Windows native JACK and JACK plugin host isn't suitable in your instance?

As LV2 is a multiplatform thing, might you mean plugins that don't take the relative advantage of this? It could be worth asking the plugin author if they might be up for adding Windows support.

yea, dependencies are the problem.
LSP might do it in the future https://github.com/sadko4u/lsp-plugins/issues/203

Isn't PW able to "replace" both PA and JACK? :wink:

WSL2 (we should be better talking about WSLg) uses RDP sinks and Pulseaudio btw

It might be possible to simply use Carla in WSLg in Pulse Audio mode.

EDIT: tried, and but no sound devices show up
