[...] Duh, I'm sorry -- I dozily misread which thread you were asking about, and thought you were asking about DSSI plugins generally rather than dssi-vst specifically. dssi-vst is a DSSI plugin, so what I just wrote does apply to it. If it's properly built and installed (which is generally the tricky bit!) then it will scan the VST plugins found in $VST_PATH (defaulting to $HOME/vst/) and make them all available to any DSSI host as DSSI plugins. So they should show up automatically in e.g. Rosegarden. To run them in a standalone mode, one can say something like jack-dssi-host dssi-vst.so:Reaktor4.dll to run a particular wrapped plugin using the reference host. This is pretty much equivalent to using Kjetil's vsti program (from vstserver). Chris
