Wasn't there a aprils fool plug-in before that challenge started?

Hi all,

Sorry for reviving this old thread.

I was watching one of Kenny Gioia's video about "Creating FX Slots for Plugins in REAPER" (check https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p1RDUFxsz0Q).

In it, he talks about using a JS plugin as a placeholder / dummy plugin.

I wonder though whether a VST3 plugin (which does not consume any CPU when not being used unlike VST2 plugins) would be better? Do you know if such a dummy VST3 plugin exists?

Thanks,
Avinash

I believe the ones posted here use practically no cpu.

JS FX also don't use CPU if they aren't being used, AFAIK.
