Software Description:

VSTHost is a demonstrational Windows program written in order to comprehend the inner workings of VST plugins. VSTHost is capable of:
<ul>
<li>loading VST effects (aka "plugins") 
<li>parameterizing / editing them 
<li>sound output for VSTis 
<li>MIDI-input and -output 
<li>loading / saving .fxb files 
</ul>
The important part of the program is an implementation of a VST host in form of 2 classes:

CVSTHost 
This implements the audio callback needed by an effect plugin as a neatly encapsulated VST host class. This is practically platform-independent code. The few platform-specific things are encapsulated in...

Ceffect 
This encapsulates a VST effect, as loaded by the VST host. This class isn't fully complete - since I don't have a Mac, I've only included the Windows code.

New in v1.45
<ul>
<li> DirectSound support added (works in all Windows versions except Vista).
<li> Added /nomme, /nodsound, /noasio command line flags to suppress the use of the corresponding wave I/O method for special environments.
<li> Added /noft ("No Fault Tolerance") flag for debugging environments; in this mode, VSTHost and SAVIHost don't catch any exception, which eases the detection of badly behaving PlugIns.
<li> Lots of bug fixes and internal changes as usual.
<li> There's a double-precision variant available that uses double precision signal paths (might be useful for testing and using double-precision PlugIns).
<li> French language satellite DLL added - many thanks to Patrice Vigier for this.
<li> Artvera contributed some skins that can be downloaded from the VSTHost web site.
<li> Improved ASIO channel selection that allows any possible combination of input/output channels to be selected.
<li> PlugIn banks can be saved automatically now, which makes performance generation much easier.
<li> Remote MIDI and MIDI->Parameter conversions now have a "Kill" flag which is normally set; if removed, the messages are not removed from the MIDI data passed to the PlugIns any more.
<li> Enhanced scrolling support for the main window.
<li> Improved compatibility with WINE / wineasio environments.
<li> Added /local=<DLLname> command line flag to allow the use of a specific satellite DLL.
<li> SysEx window added to allow sending/receiving SysEx messages to/from external MIDI devices.
<li> User Exit DLL for MediaStation added.
<li> PlugIn menu can be toggled between Display and Filename text.
</ul>
