Short answer...
Basically no.

Long answer...
Unlike other similar programs, SynthCraft is not a Vst host or wrapper of any kind.
It's a compiler. Or more accurately a collator. https://www.printingcenterusa.com/blog/ ... late-mean/

Think Visual C/Visual Basic. SynthCraft is a graphical editor to my little DSP/c Compiler.
In programming we often use blocks of reusable code. I write the oscillators, filters etc... and you use SynthCraft
to create a schematic of how these blocks of code interact together in a visual way.
When you build the project the compiler will collate them together as well as other extra functions needed to create a plugin. This has the advantage that the finished plugin is a single binary file that doesn't need a host or wrapper to work.

DSP/c is quite flexible. In a very early proof of concept version it was capable of building *.SEM modules for SynthEdit and during recent testing it even compiled a very simple but working Vst host.

Over the past several weeks I've improved the SynthCraft editor a lot and hope to post an updated version soon. Hope this helps.

Thanks Kirsty,
wishing you all success with SynthCraft.
Seems it's MAX/msp that best suits this application

Thanks for SynthCraft! A great tool. The easiest way to write and generate simple plugins yourself that I know of. :)

Is this similar to SE? Build a synth and export to vst?

Yes :)

Cool , have to find time to give it a go.

Is there a (sub)forum somewhere to discuss SynthCraft? I would like to use it much more, but don't know where to ask specific technical questions about how it works.

Today I asked KVR Admin if they would kindly create an 'Official Company Forum' for me.
It might take a day or two to set up.

Are feedback loops possible?

Yes
This quick schematic creates a very basic 1 pole LP filter.
But it really needs some form of gain compensation though!
