>What's the current status of vst4cs?

As Michael said, it's fully working, both with vst instruments and vst plugins
(a few complex ones like Absynth 2, still give trouble). vst4cs features:

-sending and receiving parameter data to and from the plugin (vstpsend and vstpret)
-sending MIDI information (controller, pitchbend, aftertouch,etc) to the plugin.
(vstout)
-sending note messages with definite duration to the plugin. (vstnote)
-loading of .fxb effect banks (vstbload)
-sending a program change message (vstprogset)
-opening the plugins gui for realtime tweaking (vstedit)
-vst processing of audio (vstplug)

This is what it's supposed to do, and what it seems to be doing, but it still
needs testing. The only issue so far (apart from some plugins not loading) is
that vstnote has to be in the same instrument as vstplug.
Take it for a spin, and let us know how it goes. There is a list of free vst
plugins included in the documentation.
