Helper Class wrapping a VST 3 plug-in to a VST 2.4 plug-in

Introduction

The VST 3 SDK comes with a helper class which wraps one VST 3 audio processor and edit controller to a VST 2.x plug-in.

How does it work?

You just need to add public.sdk/source/vst/vst2wrapper/vst2wrapper.sdk.cpp to your project and add the following code somewhere in your sources:

//-----------------------------------------------------------------
#include "public.sdk/source/vst/vst2wrapper/vst2wrapper.h"

//-----------------------------------------------------------------
::AudioEffect* createEffectInstance (audioMasterCallback audioMaster)
{
    return Steinberg::Vst::Vst2Wrapper::create (GetPluginFactory(), kAudioProcessorCID, kVst2UniqueID, audioMaster);
}
