Pd is a programming environment for writing things like VST plugins,
so I guess most Pd devs would rather write something Pd than use a
VST. But its also free software, so anyone who things VST support
should be better should definitely work on it.
I think LADSPA and other free plugins are better supported.

Hello PD users,
I am using PD under windows. I'm new to this list, but I've been
dabbling in max/msp and PD for a while now.I know there are some options for loading VST plugins in pd. I
downloaded vst~ and I seem to be able to load it into the patcher
but I can't find documentation or a home page for it anywhere. I've
also heard of a plugin~ external but I haven't found many details on
that either.At a curiosity, since vsti/vst support would massively expand the
power, usability, and appeal of PD, why isn't vst support part of
the pd-extended distribution?Thanks, Austin _______________________________________________ Pd-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management -> http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list
