i am playing around with the vst~ object [which is great by the way !!] .. but i dont seem to know how to change the program number of a vst plugin [like pro-52] with a message in pd . would this be a system exclusive message and therefore not implemented yet .? i ask because i am tring to set up a patch that will set up the pro-52 plugin on load . is there another way of accomplishing this that does not involve the things mentioned above ?

It should all documented in the pdf manual:
there are two different program change mechanisms and from what I can tell different synths respond differently:
program <value>
does a VST program change - do "print -programs" to get the list of numbers. Names can't be used 'cos of spaces. IF that doesn't work then try
programchange <value>
which does a MIDI program change.
make sure you have the last release 'cos thats when this went in.
Try vst~ with the xeq object - been playing with them both today - well cool.
cheers
