This is just an idea (or curiousity) of mine, brought on for the most part by the current system for implementing MIDI plugins. Please take it only as this - an idea, which may be completely wrong, from someone who knows nothing about programming or audio workflow! However, if you could elaborate upon my ideas as best you can, I would greatly appreciate it.
Would there be a way to simplify mixer strips so that all plugins are placed within them? Thus, we would have (each category aside from the strip output is optional):
Code: Select all
MIDI plugins > VSTi > audio plugins > output
This seems to be logical to me, but my sense of logic should rarely be trusted. I hope you can understand what I mean. If there would be any problems or limitations inherent in this approach, or you have any other insights, please offer them. Thank you!
