jdd,
Sorry I wasn't that clear. When I first worte I was wondering if
Audacity handles VSTi's as opposed to just VST's. I don't want to record
using Audacity. I was wondering if Audacity could serve as a simple VSTi
host. From further reading I think it won't.
I'm currently using Pro Tools under Win XP on one machine and on
another I use Acid Pro under Win ME to host VSTi's. Acid accepts MIDI
input, for instance, and generates audio output using it's own Tempo
sync. I then fly the audio back to Pro Tools to record.
Since writing the first message here I Spent some time looking at
the Audacity-help archives. I think I won't even bother loading
Audacity. It appear the community is not very helpful. It looks like
fewer than 20% of the requests there get even a single response. I did
better here getting 3 responses than anyone has there in the month of
April! ;-)
Thanks for all the response, even Russell's! ;-) Hi,
Sorry, but a very non-linux question.
I wonder if anyone here can say anyting about how the Windows
version of Audacity works? Is it stable? Does the VST enabler work? Is
it stable? Does it only provide for audio suite/non-realtime operation
on Audacity Audio, or does it allow Audacity to become a VSti platform
of any type?
Thanks in advance,
Mark
I'm not sure of what you mean about "VST station", but I do
multitrack
(sequencial) recording with audacity windows (my game theater card is
not so well recognised by linux, alas)
when recording the second track, there is a small (1/100s?) delay
between the first track and the new recorded one, but this is easily
corrected manually by shifting the second one.

Off to find a more simple VSTi platform for my system. Sorry, but
I'm just not up to loading a 4th version of Wine so that I can attempt
to do this under Linux. I currently have 3 Wine versions running. I wish
these Wine guys would converge, or the Linux VST Server project would
choose a release that these other major projects are using.
Don't blame you here...I went looking for ANY other possibility than
Wine and Vst server...I have about a million vst plugs and the last time
I tried to run VSTserver, my wife left, the house caught on fire, I
kicked the dog, etc, etc, etc.
