I am here not because I am doing any development or because I have any
knowledge as yet of the subject but just to toss out an idea and see what
those who do have the knowledge think about its feasibility. If that is
committing an act of poor etiquette here I apologize in advance.
I would like a WDM front filter that is configurable to the extent of:
1) naming the path to my VST plugins directory,
2) naming a single VST plugin to insert as a filter,
3) naming a real audio device to receive the output and
4) specifying parameters to the VST plugin and opening it's GUI.
In my first usage it would name and utilize the PlogueBiduleVST plugin
which is an entire framework for building up more complex flows and
processes.
I don't really know what I am talking about here but I would hope that by
pointing the "Windows Sound" panel selection to this front filter (which I
hope would appear as a named output device similar to what Virtual Audio
Cable provides) I would then be able to configure it with the parameters I
described above via the "Properties" panel for that front end pseudo
device. I am successfully doing this now via the Virtual Audio Cable and
VSTHost applications but would like to considerably simplify the mechanism
for use by others with a wish to filter Windows audio in a general and
flexible way.
Any feedback anyone would care to provide as to the feasibility and the
difficulty would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Don Gateley
