honestly I’m still not a fan of ‘VST module’ instead of device module, which is more universal and is the goal here anyway. I understand that for people coming from FL, that’s what they want to call it, but Bitwig’s own devices are not VSTs and there shouldn’t be any reason to make such module exclusive for VST plugins only.
I suppose for title we can have VST/device module for better clarity.
also I just noticed something when reading this:
so if we get devices in Grid, that implies we need a separate ‘MIDI’ type wire? or else it’ll need at least all the inputs that Note out module needs from a different feature request, therefore it will rely on that to be implemented first?
one other thing to clarify, getting devices in Grid itself instead of nested chains means having them stacked per voice, so there are some implications with that. although personally I wouldn’t mind ‘expert’ features that can easily tank CPU, it seems to be Bitwig developers actively avoid situations like this. when average user sees poor performance without understanding why and seemingly doing simple actions.
