sending data between vst plugin instances (via ruby or dll)
Posted: Mon Jan 09, 2017 7:21 pm
I saw somewhere on the forum, that flowstone'ish ruby works between multiple plugin instances. If I understand correctly, tell me if I'm wrong. So here is my question.
Let say that I start the host, like reaper.
Let say that I load multiple instances of one plugin (does it matter whether on the same track or different one?).
How to send a trigger or a value from one instance to other instances of that plugin?
If not via ruby - how to make it via dll?
Some example schematic (plus opt dll) please.
[ah, not via txt file, which requires continuous disk reading.]
What I'd like to do is to sync multiple instances of a single plugin, by either triggering random generators or by sending common data. Right now I'm just putting all into one fsm file, but maybe second approach (if possible) is better?
