Mac,

Without getting snarky about a reply, I think even you would agree that here on the forums there are at least many more active requests (and moldy oldie requests) for full VST implementation with PG products than for ReWire.

No, I didn't do a survey.

Yes, I can recall many many requests for VST implementation, and a handful for ReWire.

Yes I count me as someone who left off buying PG products because of VST implementation; or rather the lack of it. I know that I'm not alone in this regard.

I still hang out here with the hope that real VST comes some day. I'll come back in a heartbeat.

I doubt ANYONE has left off using PG products because of lack of ReWire implementation.

Peter has given some 'importance' to the issue because of his starting this thread. That has the appearance to some (I include myself in this lot) that development effort will be spent on it. Those of us that have put lots of effort over many years into the wishlists kind of go 'what - why are you bothering asking about ReWire when we've been asking for better VST implementation for years?'

Perhaps what Peter should do is a survey to end speculation. I'd love to see him post 'What do we need for acceptable VST implementation' and see the responses there.
