BASS_VST

BASS_VST allows the usage of VST plugins in BASS. BASS_VST was written to work with Silverjuke(R). Any other usage is for your own risk - but you're welcome and I'm sure it will work :-)

Files

  • README.md - this file
  • LICENSE - BASS_VST license information (BASS_VST ist released under LGPL)
  • bass_vst.h - BASS_VST C/C++ header file and documentation
  • bass_vst.dll - binary BASS_VST module
  • bass_vst.lib - binary BASS_VST import library to access bass_vst.dll easily
  • source - the source files are placed in this directory

If the binary files are missing, you can find them at http://www.un4seen.com/forum/?topic=5559.0 or you can build them from the source directory by creating a simple DLL project using your favorite IDE. In tihs case you'll need some more files not included in this package:

Usage in a glance

Example:

#include <bass.h>
#include <bass_vst.h>

// create a normal BASS stream
DWORD ch = BASS_StreamCreateFile(false, "c:\\sth.mp3", 0, 0, 0);

// assign a VST plugin DLL to the channel -- the returned handle can be used
// with all BASS_VST_*() functions
DWORD dsp = BASS_VST_ChannelSetDSP(ch, "c:\\equalizer.dll", 0, 0);

// that's all
BASS_ChannelPlay(ch, false);

// ... wait for finish ...

// delete the stream - this will also delete the VST effect
BASS_StreamFree(ch);

That's all for using VST effects, which will probably the most common usage. However, you can also use VST instruments (VSTi plugins) with BASS_VST:

// create a VST instrument stream -- the returned handle can be used with
// all BASS_Channel*() and all BASS_VST_*() functions
DWORD ch = BASS_VST_ChannelCreate(44100, 2, "c:\\instr.dll", 0);

// the returned handle can be used like any other BASS channel handle -
// eg. you can add a VST effect and start the stream
BASS_VST_ChannelSetDSP(ch, "c:\\equalizer.dll", 0, 0);
BASS_ChannelPlay(ch);

// ... wait for finish ... trigger notes using BASS_VST_ProcessEvent() ...

// when done, delete the VST instrument stream
BASS_VST_ChannelFree(ch);

Further information

For all functions and parameter descriptions, please refer to bass_vst.h - another documentation is not available at the moment (and probably will never be). Also note the version history and the disclaimer in this file.
