It's not a solution to your general problem, but I ported several of Tom Erbe's Soundhack plugins to Pd externs last summer:

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

Looks promising. Here is another approach as an 0.43 Tcl plugin. I couldn't figure out how to do connections, but I didn't try very hard. Drop this file in the "pd/startup" folder of 0.43, or in the path.
