Do you see any chance, getting this to run on Android? #4

Hi Chris-TopherW,

I`m working on a music app for Android and it would make my life so much easier, if I could use VST plugins as effects. Do you see any possibility to get this running, or can you describe where the problem lies for that?

That would be really nice.

Heya, hmmm I'm pretty sure that the VST2 protocol didn't even have support for Linux-compatible binaries so I'd assume that Android also wouldn't work. I only wrote this lib for making 32 bit Dlls for windows back in the day. Probably best to look at CLAP library (an open source plugin format that runs fine on Linux) and maybe swapping out the Unity audio engine with Oboe on Android if you want to get heavier signal processing going. Could also look into RNBO or Heavy if you need procedural audio.
