# VeeSeeVSTRack

*VeeSeeVSTRack* is an adaption of VCV Rack for the VST2.4 format.

+ supports multiple instances
+ supports VST MIDI input 
+ supports up to 8 audio outputs
+ supports up to 8 audio inputs
+ support VST program chunks (=> patches are saved with the DAW's project file or as .fxp files)
- does not support plugin DLLs due to VCV Rack's architecture which prevents this when it is run as a plugin itself
   - future releases may contain additional (open source) add-ons modules

Here's a demo video of it: https://vimeo.com/277703414

Tested in 
  - Eureka (my own work-in-progress VST host)
  - Cockos Reaper
  - Propellerhead Reason 10

Please notice that the Audible/Mutable Instruments modules appear under a different name in the UI.
For example, "Clouds" is listed as "Texture Synthesizer".

# How to build

Prerequisites:
- GNU Bash (tested with MSYS1.0 / bash v2.04.0(1))
- GNU make (tested with v3.79.1)
- Microsoft Visual Studio C++ compiler toolchain (tested with v19.00.24225.1)
- Steinberg VST2.4 SDK

If you want to build the dependent libraries, you may need additional SDKs.
Precompiled libs can be found in the `dep/lib/msvc/` folder.

```
$ git clone https://github.com/bsp2/VeeSeeVSTRack.git
```
```
$ cd VeeSeeVSTRack/
```

<unpack `dep/dep.7z`>
(contains the source codes and MSVC-precompiled libraries)

Edit `dep/yac/install_msvc.mk` and adjust the `LIB_INSTALL_PREFIX`, `WINDDK_PATH`, `VCTK`, `W32API_INC`, `W32API_LIB` as required.

```
$ alias m="make -j 20 makefile.msvc"
$ m lib
$ cd plugins
$ m bin
$ cd ..
```
Edit `vst2_common_msvc_pre.mk` and adjust the VST2 SDK path
```
$ m bin
```
If the build succeeded, the effect and instrument plugin DLLs can now be found in the `vst2_bin/` folder.

Last but not least, please don't ask me for the VST2 SDK.
It is not permitted to redistribute it and Steinberg has discontinued it.
I heard that the `aeffect.h` / `aeffectx.h` files are still included in the VST3 SDK.
