Summary

0002561: Make Ardour to report time and tempo to VST plugins

Description

VST specifications support asking host for tempo and time. It widely used for delay syncing, trance-gate syncing and for voice tuning by Melodine VST Plugin. As Ardour's VST support improved a lot, I'd like to see Ardour supporting this feature.

So functions to be implemented are: getTimeInfo and tempoAt.
For testing I found a simple metronome blinking vst plug-in.
It's called blinker and can be found here:
http://www.breathcube.com/vst/vst.html [^]

It seem to be made in synthedit so it creates some additional files in order to run, so I had to make /usr/local/lib/vst folder writable. So I'm able to open this VST plugin in Ardour2, but it doesn't blink. I'll put a bounty for the one who would make it blink.

(0005872) thorgal (reporter) 2009-04-09 11:56	that's something for the FST author, as ardour is using FST for its VST support. Try to contact the FST author and tell him about it.
