I could probably look into this, me the easiest way might be to install Windows to a Raspberry Pi. I am pretty sure VST2 on ARM would not be viable, but as mentioned limiting the server to VST3 plugins should work.
Looks like some JUCE patches would be necessary: https://forum.juce.com/t/juce-windows-for-arm-tweaks/52045
In case you have access to a silicon mac, parallels worked with microsoft to run windows on arm macs.
That's a good strategy but I am still oldschool Intel! ;) I have a natural interest in checking Windows on Raspberry Pi as for other audiogridder feature implementation, I want to show that Raspbian and Ubuntu are not the only choices for the "stepping stone" strategy from software to hardware :)
To drop another enticing hint (mainly to the OP PythonBlue but that discussion is in another area), here was a reply in the Windows MIDI 2.0 Discord I think I can share outside of there:
Arm64 will be fully supported for sure, as will Arm64EC. This will work on Home/Pro/Enterprise/Workstation/etc. so it will work on Enterprise IoT. Whether or not it is pre-installed is up to the folks who manage that branch. I'll need to check.
IIRC, Windows 10 IoT Core stopped around 2018 and has been supported but not updated. We need a later rev of Windows 10 (we currently target the last version of Windows 10 and current supported versions of Windows 11). So I'm not expecting to support IoT Core.
I can confirm that Audiogridder Server runs on Windows for Arm via Parallels 19.
There are some cursor issues that are exhibited in some plugin interfaces which should be looked into, which looks like a possible mouse acceleration bug. Don't know if this is related to Windows on Arm, Parallels, or Audiogridder. One plugin in particular, Infinity EQ, exhibits this behavior when you try to adjust the EQ nodes in the graph window.

I hate to ask, @AlphaComposite, but can you share how you got it to work via Parallels? I can install the server in Win11, but running it produces no windows or tray icon, outside of the initial splash screen.
