VST3 Plugins

[eallan]

Can vArranger use VST3 plugins , specifically Yamaha Motif Rack XS VST?

[Dan]

Maybe with this? : https://www.bluecataudio.com/Products/Product_PatchWork/

[eallan]

Thanks , Dan.
I'll try that.

hi Dan,
is there any news on VST3 protocol developments in the software?
Yesterday Halion 7 came out and was only distributed on VST3 and the latest versions of Kontakt were also only distributed on VST3.
Using a non-native vst 'bridge' complicates things even more and involves a very laborious and time-consuming level of fine-tuning, certainly much more so than with a native host.
At this point I would say that the implementation of VST3 starts to become rather necessary.
Any chance of seeing it implemented?

[bluebeat]

Yes, Dan please inform us what are the plans for VST3 support. I am in Halion / Kontakt boat too.

Dan, what are the plans for VST3 support? This is not "upgrade", but a maintenance issue. Discontinuation of support was announced 13 month ago. Where do we, loyal customers stand?

 

[Dan]

I am trying to make VST3 loading possible in vArranger soon

[bluebeat]

Dan,
I can't say it is a good news, until it is delivered. I will be the first one to cheer...
I am holding off on some upgrades, because they are VST3 only. What is ETA for VST3?
 

[bluebeat]

Dan, are you talking days, weeks, months....or maybe?

Ich behelfe mich mit Cubase12 pro und LoopMidi mit Halion7 und vArranger2

[bluebeat]

 Woge1000, what does your message has to do with the issue that vArranger does not support VST3 internally??

BUMP!

[bluebeat]

1 month without answer BUMP

[bluebeat]

Any news?

[bluebeat]

2 months - no reply... Dan what is ETA for VST3 support?

[Dan]

Wow the time goes so fast
Will give you an answer soon

[bluebeat]

Indeed, so hoping the VST3 news comes before I end up in nursing home.

Dan, most synths (including all popular ones) stopped making VST2. But you know this already.

[Woge1000]

Hello Dan
I've already paid 3X 50€ for an update and never got an update. Now I'm missing VST3. Should I buy Blue Cat's PatchWork for 100€ now. I'll also be going to a retirement home soon

[garciarob]

Unfortunately also Ezkeys 2 is only vst3     

[bluebeat]

Dan,
Another month past since your last "Will give you an answer soon" reply. When can we expect VST3 support?

[bluebeat]

Wow the time goes so fast
Will give you an answer soon

Two months passed, no answer from Dan.

When VST3 can be expected for VA?

[bluebeat]

15 years since release of VST3
500+ days since discontinuation of VST2 support

Dan, when VST3 support is coming to varranger?

[bluebeat]

Bump.
Dan.... what is the status?

[bluebeat]

Dan,
In March you said: "I am trying to make VST3 loading possible in vArranger soon"

May: "Will give you an answer soon"

When VST3 support is expected?

[bluebeat]

Dan,
Maybe a multiple choice would work better?

Long due VST3 support is:

A) Coming in 1-2 month
B) Coming before the end of the year.
C) Maybe in the future with no planned release date.
D) Stop bothering me, why should I care about user frustrations, even when I made certain promises / commitments.

Hello
I am afraid the correct answer is D

Olivier

[Dan]

A) I hope less

[bluebeat]

Let the countdown begin.

[Dan]

Sent you something to test

[bluebeat]

Dan,
Thanks. With plugin window scaling issues, it's not possible to test. I tried different compatibility settings for DPI, doesn't solve it. It must me internal setting of VA that prevents normal plugin size. It's related to Steinberg plugins (Sonic, Halion GA5) older and very recent.

P.S. VA 1.9xx is displaying everything correctly without special DPI settings.
