What program would schedule such a mimi-modular system? I don't
want write such a flow engine/scheduler myself as there are
already plenty available.
Are you saying that Reaktor instruments can be run in VST Tassman and
in VST VazModular? So, I could write my reverb with Reaktor then
if everyone is able to use Reaktor instruments.

So there *is* a GMPI graphs in the standard afterall. Sorry, I thought
GMPI is only something simpler. But now I can say I don't need anything
else: yes, the flow engine/scheduler is part of the hosts; and
if a host do not have the flow engine, then the host may forward the
graph to the nearest plugin which implements the flow engine.
Do I have understood this wrong?
Lets repeat how I would write my reverb:
-I would write a multitap plugin; called as multitap()
-I would write a late reverberator; called as laterev()
-I would write a bandsplit filter; called as bandsplit()
-I would write GMPI graph description for how the complete
reverb is assembled
Then the host would take all the functions and the graph for
forwarding them to a nearest flow system, e.g., to
Csound or to Reaktor which would support GMPI.
Best regards,
Juhana
