    This is an urgent call for VE Pro supporting VST3: all our high-quality PlugIns come now with VST3!!

    Today the great Berlin Studio from Samplicity arrived for production: VST3 required as for most professional PlugIns - no chance to use within our VEPro Slaves!!!

    It would be a major drawback for our customers and collaborators if we cannot use their VST3 PlugIns on our server units.

    Very timely implementation is like a MUST for this otherwise fantastic software which currently becomes unusable for many practical purposes. We are really close to deadend with VE Pro!

     

    This is an honest and serious wake-up call from a decade long customer

    With love but also with great concern for the future

    I second this 1000%!!!

    VE Pro is and has been a vital tool in my professional studio. Now with the latest release of Kontakt 7 (another vital tool) as VST3 only, it is unusable in the the current version of VE Pro. 

    I have also been a longtime dedicated user, I sincerely hope that attention is paid to this issue and a solution is reached before it becomes necessary to seek out alternatives.

    VSL has responded to this request numerous times.  They are working on it.

    Until such time as VSL get their act together on VST3 support, you might want to take a look at Metaplugin from DDMF. https://ddmf.eu/metaplugin-chainer-vst-au-rtas-aax-wrapper/

    The VST2 version of this wrapper, when used in VEPro7, is successfully able to host VST3 plugins including Kontakt 7 multis, which require multiple MIDI inputs and multiple audio outputs.

    I bench-tested Metaplugin today and have been able to easily setup large Kontakt 7 multis in VEPro7

    It provides for plugin Delay Compensation and offers up to x16 oversampling if needed and facilitates support for plugin parameter automation.

    For $59 you can install it on all your networked servers and the supplier provides responsive Customer Support.

    There is a Demo version available, but you can only save the plugin settings in your session with the Full version.

    It will suffice for the VST2-VST3 transition.

    Thanks for the reply and link to Metaplugin. I will take a closer look.

    I have found a free plugin here - https://www.kvraudio.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=8251488#p8251488

    Haven't had the opportunity to fully test it out, but can say from limited use it works.
