Linux VST3 and JUCE compatibility

Linux
1

Hi !

Since the VST SDK 3.6.7 has been released, are you planning to add a VST3 compatibility for JUCE plugins on Linux ? as the Linux case is not yet present in the juce_VST3_Wrapper.cpp file.
Also I am trying to make a simple GUI plugin with the new VST3. I tried it with the VSTGUI and it worked fine and now I want to use JUCE GUI components instead. I am currently having some windowing difficulties. As I saw this 5 years topic : Possiblility to creat JUCE GUI in VST3 project , is it now reasonable to do such a thing ?

Thanks ! :slight_smile:

Hi @bardetad,

We are currently looking into Linux VST3 support. It probably won’t make it for the JUCE 5 release but it will work on it soon after.

Thanks for the reply @fabian. And when do you plan the JUCE 5 release ?

Experience has shown that giving firm dates for releases always leads to trouble. However, I will say that the JUCE team is working on preparing JUCE 5 now, so you shouldn’t have to wait too long.

Hi @fabian,

Could you notify us once you’ll have worked out the Linux VST3 compat ?

Thanks.

Hi @fabian and @t0m,

Did this feature came out of your dev backlog scope ?

Thanks for reply.

bump.

Would be great. Especially for new developers who aren’t allowed to distribute VST2 anymore…

No news. It’s still something that’s on our radar and we’d like to get done “soon”, but I’m not going to make any public promises about a deadline. As Samuel said the removal of the VST2 SDK has made this a more pressing issue.
