THIS IS THE OLDEST POST HERE ASKING FOR DEVELOPING TOOLS FOR APPS AND PLUGINS.

It started been focusing on Audio but later evolved to a General State.

ORIGINAL POST

Do we have here the tools to DEVELOP plug-ins?

To program in MAX there should be some packages...Documentation, etc
To program vst plug there should be some steinberg SDK
I have no clue about Protools RTAS or TDM plugs SDK, probably they sold the SDK in a secrecy contract (?)

It may involved programming in C+, Java or XCode or anything.
In the OS9/X transition lots of apps said that were carbonized. I think it meaned that it could work in OS9 and X, or maybe it meaned that it could work with OS X...I am not sure what that means.

I know Classilla http://www.floodgap.com/software/classilla/ is developed using Codewarrior http://macintoshgarden.org/search/node/codewarrior
http://macintoshgarden.org/author/metrowerks==> This could be backup on our servers, at least the importants ones

This thing seem interesting to take windows program to OS9 http://macintoshgarden.org/apps/microsoft-visual-c-40-cross-development-edition-macintosh

Interesting...http://macintoshgarden.org/apps/apple-developer-cd-collection

Let's post here tools needed to make any kind of AUDIO software in OS9. I readed here somewhere that the only commom way to program things was with MAX MSP.
MAX http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Max_%28software%29


The goal is to have the documentation and tools to develop our owns plug-ins/host/guess. RTAS, VST, MAS, etc.

At least Steinberg OS9 sdk should be easy...

if you know your max/msp, making a vst/rtas-plug is pretty simple. the pluggo package comes with this tutorial. as with the original pluggo-plugins the very same object is valid both in protools and cubase etc... ;D

--- Quote ---This manual describes how to use the audio plug-in construction tools in Max/MSP. These
tools consist of nine Max/MSP objects, an application called Plugmaker, and a shell, which we
call pluggo that loads plug-ins built in Max/MSP and creates an interface for them that appears to
a host audio program as an audio plug-in. In this manual, we refer to the pluggoshell as the
runtime plug-in environment and the audio program that can make use of pluggoas the host mixer
or host sequencer.
pluggocan be downloaded from the Cycling ’74 web site www.cycling74.com. Demo versions of
popular sequencing applications such as Cubase, Logic Audio, Pro Tools, and Digital Performer
can be obtained—with varying degrees of difficulty—from their publishers and distributors.
Max/MSP can also be used as a host environment for plug-ins developed in Max/MSP using the
vst~object.
The runtime plug-in environment currently runs under RTAS, MAS, and VST host
environments and provides platform-independence so Max/MSP developers may write a single
plug-in that works under all supported environments.

Ok, that is an aproach, via Max/MSP's Pluggo. http://www.dontcrack.com/freeware/downloads.php/id/3139/software/Pluggo-runtime/


What software is needed? I cant find it here http://cycling74.com/downloads/discontinued/ or here http://cycling74.com/downloads/older-discontinued/

It is on the Garden http://macintoshgarden.org/apps/pluggo-304 as Chris told us on http://macos9lives.com/smforum/index.php?topic=368.0


We need the Steinberg SDK also. It could be great to make an VST to RTAS/MAS OS9 adapter as the one from fxpansion for OSX.

There is another kind of plug not spoken here. Premiere plug-ins. Some DAWS can use them (?).

I tested Pluggo for WinProtools and it came with so many plugs that my plugs list went crazy long. I will see if it makes crazy long my RTAS options on OS9.

i am working on a new host as you can see in the respective forum thread

give me a few days with the thing i promised mactron (i have some other hobbies, too) then we will see what we need next. :)

@110 Can you tell us the process you made to achieve that?
