VST multichannel plugins in DP9 don't work

Post by Ombre »

The VST multichannel plugins I'm referring to are the ones that can work from mono to up to 7.1 files, input and output like the GRM Tools, the Flux plugins and the Octogris2 (UdeM). None of them worked in DP8 nor they work in DP9. The AU versions work perfectly well but not the VST versions. None of them. Any idea?

I believe you are correct. AU is limited in that respect and DP doesn't support VST3.

If that functionality is contained in the VST2 version, I would file a Tech Link and see if MOTU has an answer.
