VST Instruments Introduction

As described on page 451, version 2.0 of the VST Plug-in standard allows MIDI input to effect plug-ins. Among other things, this makes it possible to play and control software synthesizers (or other MIDI controlled sound sources) from within the VST system. To facilitate this, there is a special VST Instruments panel, and mixer channel strips for the Instrument output.

About the VST 2.1 standard

As of this writing, the latest version of the VST plug-in protocol is called VST 2.1. This adds some functionality to VST Instruments, mainly improved support for Patch changes via MIDI. See page 93.
