Suggestion for VST integration

Open bigdaddystein opened this issue 6 years ago • 1 comments

I've noticed that for the longest time, one of your goals has been to allow for the exporting of files as VST plugins. Recently I've discovered a plugin from Blue Cat Audio called Plug-N-Script which essentially allows users to program effect/synth plugins within their DAW, so I'm wondering if perhaps you could create a VST version of LiveSPICE itself. That way we could make the simulated circuts, save them as presets, and use them within the signal chain rather than figuring out a way to convert project files to VSTs.

@bigdaddystein I had the same idea, and I found LiveSPICE looking for prior art. From what I can tell, you can write a VST plugin using C# with VST.NET, and you'd have to rewrite the graphics code. Another option would be to port the processing code to C++ for use with JUCE, which would provide lots of helpers and allow exporting as VST, VST3, AU, RTAS and AAX. I may take on the first option when I have time.
