The configuration options as well as adjustable scale should be easy to implement. I can think of other features which could be nice as well. Having a variable number of parameters could be a little tricky, though. Patching is easy, but I'd need to give a look at the Pluggo dev guide to make it fit with the plugins presets storage schemes. The only "problem" is that I was a bit over enthusiastic as it'll be hard for me to have it done in the next couple of months or so. Once my thesis is over I'll have full time to build this, test and assure it is bug proof. Stay tuned. Hi Gavin,

The only “problem” is that I was a bit over enthusiastic as it’ll be hard for me to have it done in the next couple of months or so. Once my thesis is over I’ll have full time to build this, test and assure it is bug proof.

Stay tuned.

Ardour already supported OSC control of transport, solo, mute and rec-enable functions. Within a short time, I think we will OSC control of plugin parameters too.

But my Max knowledge is next to nothing. It'd be really good if someone put together a decent version of the vst with: Configurable Port/IP/Address from the VST interface. Adjustable scale Variable number of parameters. Option to use Midi instead of OSC. (Is it possible to send midi through virtual midi cable from inside a Pluggo VST? Or do you have to route it back through the host?) I can send you what I've done but my guess is if you know anything about Max you probably won't need it!

I wish I had more time at the moment to monkey around with it. Anyone planning on making an OSC-outputting wind controller anytime soon?

It seems the time is right, so Mac users will be happy as well. Julien. It’s been a long time since I’ve been wanting to do such a plugin in Max/MSP.
