Have you never been in a spot where you want to use a plugin, but you don't have enough realtime power to run it full-tilt? Or a plugin that has a 'quality' level built in, already? I have. Many times. I want to preview them in low or medium quality, while I muck in realime, but when I render, I don't care how long it takes. This is a perfect candidate for a well-known control. > r16: will the host provide a threading mechanism to allow async work to > take place (eg.

Again, does that sectio need to be moved? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Generalized Music Plugin Interface (GMPI) public discussion list Participation in this list is contingent upon your abiding by the following rules: Please stay on topic.
