I appreciate that! Would love to hear you make this come true.
Meanwhile, have a nice and pleasant start of '22 and get this thing up and running

Was the most popular spec, VST2, proprietary? Yes.soundmodel wrote: ↑Fri Dec 31, 2021 7:42 pm Now that I've thought about it. Isn't it a bit surprising that it has taken 1996-2021 (25 years?) for someone to realize that most/all independently developed plug-ins have relied on a proprietary "base" to do so?

Did it do most of the tasks that anyone using them, wanted them to do? Yes.
So what is 25 years, to you soundmodel, of a working API without being indepentently developed meaning?
I guess that means it worked. Is that a good thing or a bad thing?
When interfacing with dodgy DAWs, always wrap the CLAP.
I know this post is a month old, but this is similar to how other plugin formats work. In VST you create the factory, then create the component, then initialize the component, then activate the component, then tell the component to start processing. Each of those states is meaningfully different.karrikuh wrote: ↑Thu Dec 16, 2021 8:00 pm One thing I noted and was wondering about is the number of initialization steps required to create a plugin instance and make it ready for processing audio. There is:
clap_plugin_entry->init()
clap_plugin_entry->createPlugin()
clap_plugin->init()
clap_plugin->activate()
clap_plugin->start_processing()
Whaaa???
No, on this point Dave is spot-on. Without Steinberg there would be no VST, no massive plugin market for you and others to earn a living from. VST3 may have been a (giant) misstep but that doesn't undo all the amazing things that Steinberg's standard has given to all of us. A little respect and gratitude wouldn't go astray.Markus Krause wrote: ↑Wed Dec 29, 2021 4:39 pm @Anx,
as usual you're posting off-topic garbage, trying to provocate and start an argument. That's why all your comments will be ignored. All your attempts to derail the tread will be reported to the moderation.
Actually, electric cars were around before petrol powered cars and, until around 1910, there were roughly as many electric cars on the streets as there were petrol cars. It was only when somebody perfected the carburettor that internal combustion cars took off.starflakeprj wrote: ↑Wed Dec 29, 2021 7:47 pmWith that attitude the electric car would never have seen the light of the day.
No worries. The concept is not easy to grasp.audiojunkie wrote: ↑Thu Jan 27, 2022 3:24 amWhaaa???
