Any guides on getting Carla/Wine for LMMS?

Having trouble with LMMS? Ask about it here.
Howdy! Apologies for the vague question coming up.

Windows 10 user. I'm wanting to use Carla or something like it to load a standalone audio plugin into LMMS, but I'm not very tech savvy and admittedly intimidated by what I have found by looking into it myself.

Are there any suggested guides/etc. that I should check out for this?

Carla is not best choice for windows. Try Elements by Khusview

But hold the donkeys
What exactly do you mean by " a standalone audio plugin "?
LMMS natively support VST2 through Vestige!
What is the plugin you want to use?
* Name
* Type
* Description / manufacturer

Carla has a windows version, but as far as I know, it cant do all the Linux version can do.

I am a Linux user, so you probably better follow the advice from musikbear.

If you really want to use Carla, I would advice to install Linux.
There are a few music making specific distro, that give you an easy way to install Carla.

I would advice against compiling it your self.

Assuming your happy with Windows, don't use Carla.
Wanna try it anyway on Windows:
