Hi all,
I have been working on upgrading pdvst~ (vst 2.4) to vst3 for Linux,
macOS and Windows.
briefly its about running your standard Pd inside a vst3 host. you can
use Pd same as normal and with externals. the only thing you can't do is
change audio settings.
pdvst~ came out around 2004 and had always been for Windows only. this
upgrade adds Unix replacements for the Windows only stuff that is mainly
a shared memory, a mutex and 2 semaphores. the rest is of course was
upgrading the code to live inside the vst3 API.
while the Windows version works very nice the Linux version (untested on
macOS) seems a bit poppy with host's block size < 256. this i think can
be improved if coding the mutex and semaphores with modern pthreads
instead of the plain old semaphores i used.
for those willing to test get binaries from
https://github.com/Lucarda/pdvst3/releases
macOS feedback is specially welcome as my qemu VM does not have audio.
please read carefully the readme. macOS user have instructions on how to
overcome "untrusted developer" stuff.
