VST.NET 2 builds on the basis of VST.NET (1) and is completely built with .NET 5.
The new version is still Windows-only and supports the Steinberg VST 2.x API.
This means that VST.NET (1) is phasing out and will not receive any more updates.
If you are looking for the old VST.NET (1) code, its in the branch called vstnet1.
Of course you can still ask questions about VST.NET (1), but no feature requests or bug fixes will be applied.
VST stands for Virtual Studio Technology and is an API designed by Steinberg that allows Audio and Midi plugin to work together in a Digital Audio Workstation (DAW) host application.
VST.NET allows VST Plugin developers to write Plugins for the Steinberg VST 2.x API. The interop layer makes the transition between the C++ and C# smooth and easy.
The Framework built on top of the interop layer provides a clear and structured architecture accelerating development considerably.
VST.NET also allows developers to write a managed VST2 Host application. The VstPluginContext class (Host.Interop) allows you to load and communicate with unmanaged (and managed) VST Plugins. At this time there is no Framework for Host applications. But any ideas on this are welcome.
Still a work in progress, but here they are.
