A question came up on a discord server I'm in (Ref), as to whether it's possible to connect a VST instrument as the 'input' of an AudioStream; or if not, some other method of allowing to stream the instrument to an output device.
The example for live audio seems to show using both an input/output device, and applying an effects chain:
And the docs seem to show that input/output device usage, as well as 'synchronous use', where an ogg_buffer is passed in (but it's not super clear where the output of that goes when .run() is called:
Asking ChatGPT, it suggested using another external library such as the following, and using that on the output from the instrument, to stream it to the desired output device:
