"Bye bye VST2" is exactly what they don't say. Nice clickbait though.

But that is exactly what they are saying in not so many words. Stating VST 2 is on the way out is obviously them softening the blow that VST2 is going from Cubase, and that they will only release VST3 and maybe an incoming VST4 SDK from now on.

Any company that is going to make a big change and phase something out does it the softly softly way first by pretending to support it for as long as needed. They did this with 32bit plugins.
Don't trust those with words of weakness, they are the most aggressive

Sometimes in life, letting go is the only option.
It's time to set the flux capacitor to 2018, bye bye VST2 and 32 bit.

Your music is just as bad as the rest of us.

Yes, exactly.

A new standard would have to be extremely simple to implement, and add 2-3 killer features on top which other standards do not have. The problem with that is there's not going to be a consensus among developers of what extra features are the most desirable. Add everything developers want and the standard is no longer going to be simple...so I'm rather skeptical about the success of any new standard.

What's needed is a cooperative standard that all manufacturers and developers agree to.
Like what happened when midi was birthed.
That oportunity could have happened when Apple had the idea to come up with AU (OS X 10.2, if I'm not mistaken). If instead of creating "another" standard, they decided to sit with Steinberg, and together come up with a "true" standard, we could very well have a real cross-platform standard now.

But instead, Apple chose to go their own way, creating another "standard" that only works in OS X, and even there is not the standard. Steinberg reacted and created VST3. Avid reacted and created AAX. The result is what we have now... No standard and the chaos spread. And it seems things will become worse soon.

You mean something like VST3? It works great.
When did all manufacturers and developers agree to implement VST 3?

No, you just don't get it, that's the problem. I'm not surprised though, you seem to be a religious fella, so, it's no wonder you're holding on to something with religious fundamentalism, which totally prevent you from understanding even the most logical and rational reasoning.

Steinberg have dismally failed with VST3. Somebody needs to petition Yamaha Corp to take control of the VST standard. Then they need to publish a public development roadmap, they need to listen to feedback from the community & developers, and they need to make further development of the VST format a collaborative process with other industry players since it’s become a universal standard. They also need to support more platforms such as Linux and Android.

They should also have VST developers conferences and public workshops to get people together discussing.
