So overall, and noting what your statement iludes to in this line of
thinking, what advantages might there be for the vst specific stuff in
running this client as opposed to jack_fst or vstserver?
For right now, the main vst plug I use is Edirols HyperCanvas. It's a
Kicka$$ GM2 softsynth which In my opinion nothing else touches in the
soundfont world. I have it running fairly stable and it is kind of a
turning point for me to have a good reliable GM or GS softsynth. When I
can get this, I can seriously look at dumoing CW Sonar on Winblows XP
altogether. But also as Austin said...They ALL work great at home and
crash at the most inopportune moments! :) Also Muse and RG need some
more work to be ready for primetime.

I will check it out. I already have a fuctioning
jack_fst on my system
so I'm going to assume DSSI will live with that and it's subsequent Wine
needs.
Yes, I think that should get you 90% of the way there.
btw, if you happen to be using gcc-3.4, it's been pointed out that the
vsthost.cpp file in dssi-vst won't compile without a small edit -- you need
to remove the "(0)" from the ends of lines 379 and 396. I'll probably do a
minor release to fix that (and only that) shortly.
