Aloe Vst Units

aloe-vst-units is a Rust crate designed for handling VST 3.0 unit and program list management in digital audio processing. It provides a comprehensive implementation of interfaces that facilitate efficient communication between VST plugins and hosts regarding unit assignments, unit data, program lists, and their associated metadata.

The crate includes several core traits:

• IUnitHandler2: This trait allows notifying the host of changes in unit assignments by the bus. Implementing this interface helps in managing dynamic changes efficiently.

• IUnitData: Provides facilities for handling unit preset data. It allows users to get or set unit data, crucial for managing presets and maintaining state across sessions.

• IProgramListData: Facilitates access to program list data and interacts seamlessly with IUnitData for managing program lists associated with units.

• IUnitHandler: Enables communication with the host for notifying changes in unit selections and program list changes. This interface is key for coherence between plugin and host state.

• IUnitInfo: Essential for describing the internal structure of the plugin. It manages unit counts, information, and associations with program lists.

Features

• Host and Plugin Communication: Seamless handling of interactions required for advanced unit management.
• Unit and Program Handling: Integrates deep management of both units and program lists.
• Dynamic Adjustment: Unlike static configurations, plugin interactions can dynamically adjust to host-notified changes, maintaining synchronization with the creative workflow.

Getting Started

To use aloe-vst-units, add it to your Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]
aloe-vst-units = "0.1.0"

Example

Implementing IUnitHandler2 might look like this:

use aloe_vst_units::IUnitHandler2;

struct MyHandler;

impl IUnitHandler2 for MyHandler {
    fn notify_unit_by_bus_change(&mut self) -> tresult {
        // Notify logic here
    }
}
