Just another plea for a static constant port of our choosing option for the VSTi stub and the editor.
I would like to set the VSTi to say, port 2112 and the editor port to 2112 also, have that stick forevermore so that when I launch the daw file with the VSTi in it and when I launch the editor and do a connect to host, it will just use the 2112 I used and therefore just connect. It would be also nice if the “Connect to host” could be the default so one could just open the editor with the daw file and go it they live that way as I do. All this manual preconfig at each use is silly at best.
I can write C / C++ if you need another pair of hands. I would implement this with no compensation other than to have it.
