Steinberg V-Stack
« on: August 22, 2023, 03:05:49 PM »
I read that Steinberg V-Stack 1.2 is first Mac OSX version and for Jaguar (OSX 10.2). Is there older MacOS9 version?
Does somebody have any version for Mac? I am interested how it works in stand alone mode and remote controlling thru midi. Can user define controllers? If can then I would like make controller map for Mac OS 9 DAW.

nope, osx only.

cubase/logic/DP make a fine standalone host - and when you do not have enough instrument slots in a program, you can patch your instruments to appear as effect.

But, from Cubase 5.2pb1 readme:
"
WHAT IS NEW IN CUBASE VST MAC 5.2pb1?
 Features
 - New Preferences option (Edit -> Preferences -> MIDI -> Playback): "Disable Thru for VST/Rewire Input"
 - System Link implemented
"

So can it be that you can slave OSX machine with System Link of V-Stack to OS9 Machine with Cubase 5.2pb1?

Are you aiming at a os9 machine dedicated as
Vst host for processing?

Looking for: Steinberg Cubase MAC Standard/Score v1-5 & Cubase Audio v1, Cubase Audio v2 for, Cubase Audio v3 for DAE/TDM => complete or in parts

v-stack has system link. but i would not count on it.

it might be interesting to include windows-only software in a setup, but you could as well use MIDI.

I never noticed that !  I stopped using 5.2pb1 (Public Beta) because it had a bug in "prepare archive" (think it locks up) that was not present in V32 5.1r1; shame they never finished 5.2
