PdVST |
|
|
I was looking for a way to embed either Keykit or Pd as a VST...just to avoid the overhead of running MIDI Yoke in the background. Looks like someone's been here already!

(I still like some of the widgets that Keykit has, so it'd be nice to embed it as a VST as well, if only I were a programmer...) |

I'm not aware of anyone working on such a thing for keykit. Would you want keykit's MIDI output to be sent back to the VST hosting environment? I know that a VSTi can accept MIDI input (obviously), but I'm not sure whether VSTi's can *output* MIDI.

as of VST 2.0, it supports both MIDI in & out. I don't have a lot of experience with this, and don't know whether or not the VST time stamps are carried with MIDI for sample-accurate timing. Would this be similar to the way OSC works?
I noticed you added OSC to keykit, I'm eager to play with this as I get more networked
But yes, I would like to use keykit's output within my VST host...it puts everything into 1 system that, in theory, could be recalled in it's entirety. |

Thanks, could be interesting. What kind of things could you do with a VST plugin that aren't possible using MIDI Yoke?

I think mainly what jk already pointed out: total recall from within a single environment.

Take advantage of the audio routing facilities of your host? I don´t think PD supports rewire so quite a bit of trickery would be needed otherwise.
I think this is a exciting development, I was thinking that I´d need to purchase MAX/MSP because PD was so much harder to intergrate into Live, this one may save me quite a few bucks. _________________ Kassen |

Keykit only does MIDI. Doesn't sound like it'd be worth the effort to produce a keykit VST plugin.

No, not in that case, I was refering to PD. For keyit the only advantage would be convenience. _________________ Kassen |
