The Lionstracs I mentioned in the other mail also states the same.
Probably more related in this discussion.

      Beyond Standards

Virtual instruments and effects that you are used to from the studio,
should not be missing on the road. Copy your VST plugins from MS Windows
onto your instrument and load them with the dedicated VST control
interface, directly from the touchscreen.
Analogue to any other sound engine in your instrument, your VSTi plugins
are assigned to the instrument's patch selector pads, allowing to switch
among your VST instruments quckly during your live performance.
Besides the virtual instruments, you can assign a chain of VST effect
plugins to each instrument. When switching among your VST instruments,
the respective chains of VST effects are automatically restored along to
the virtual instrument."


and also ASIO applications from Windows:


"


      Windows ASIO applications

Even though the Lionstracs instruments are not MS Windows computers,
they can host all your Windows audio applications for you. This is
especially handy for virtual studio tools that are not available as VST
plugins. Thanks to an efficient implementation of the ASIO audio
interface standard, your ASIO applications can even reach lower
latencies on the Groove OS than under MS Windows.
Each Lionstracs instrument provides 10 ASIO app hosts, that is you can
run up to ten Windows ASIO apps simultaniously and immediately switch
among them during live performance with the instrument selector pads on
the touch screen and by the sound selector buttons on the chassis. All
MIDI and audio connections to your ASIO application are automatically
established by the Groove OS for you, so your favourite Windows audio
applications are automaticallly, seamlessly integrated into the overall
system of your Lionstracs instrument, allowing them to utilize all
features of your Lionstracs instrument, e.g. applying the builtin audio
effects.
Integrating another Windows ASIO application in your instrument, doesn't
need more than copying the software onto your instrument and selecting
the executable (.exe) file from the dedicated ASIO control interface,
again directly by the integrated touchscreen."

Surely there is no way they can truly claim to be able to handle all and
everything when nobody else seems to have managed that at home. Leaving
themselves open for lawsuits of false advertising??

If it works, it's not false advertising.
