The Host program I use just requires that the VST plugin in fact does
have a GUI. I suppose the VST API definition provides some means to
integrate the VTS's GUI with the Host's GUI and same need to be decently
provided.
At this point of time I also intend to do simple MIDI filters.
There's been a couple of threads in this list about VST, I presume
that this is the SDK you mentioned above.
I seem to remember that I got mine from some other source, but
supposedly it's the same header translation.

Did you "play with" the SDK in Delphi or did you in fact manage to get
something decently running in FPC/Lazarus ?
It you really did, I would be very grateful, if you could provide me
with some example code to get started.
Also:
- VST is in Lazarus-CCR, but an older v4 version. VST porting is
hindered by
not accepting changes (like a sane IFDEF system) upstream, which makes
every port an one off change.
Here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/lazarus-ccr/?source=directory
I only see "TZMSQL" which obviously is some other beast.
and here http://svn.code.sf.net/p/lazarus-ccr/svn/components/
I don't see anything related to VST,
Can I search somewhere else ?
Thanks a lot,
-Michael
