Title: VST3 or VST2
Post by: Luis on October 14, 2022, 08:43:22 PM

Hi Markus Krause. In the another post you mentioned that VST3 lacks in features compared to VST2. I see the a lots updates for VST3 now.   
So should I use VST2 or VST3. Thanks

Hello Luis,

if you want to use Midi you really should use VST2, since Steinberg's VST3 format does not offer full Midi support.

Here is a comparison of plugin formats:
