Setting the model to use requires that your LV2 host supports atom:Path parameters. Reaper does as of v6.82. Carla and Ardour do. If your favorite LV2 host does not support atom:Path, let them know you want it. If you are looking for a GUI version, @brummer10 [has one here](https://github.com/brummer10/neural-amp-modeler-ui) that works for Linux and Windows.

This isn't (much of) an issue on modern PCs, but you may have trouble running on less powerful hardware. +NAM WaveNet models are generally quite expensive to run. This isn't (much of) an issue on modern PCs, but you may have trouble running on less powerful hardware. A Raspberry Pi 4 running a 64bit OS can run "standard" NAM models with a bit of room to spare for a cabinet IR and some lightweight effects.
