The single entry point should return a master object which provides 
functions for, at a minimum:-
- Enumerating the plugin-classes this DLL can instantiate. Could be as

class (friendly name, instrument-or-effect, ???) so that the host 
doesn't have to instantiate every class to find out the most common 
things about it
