Hi all. I'm looking for some updated information on ways to turn MAX 7 patches into VST or AU plugins. All the info I find seems to be outdated or no longer relevant. If any of you have any good links or info please post, it's appreciated. Thanks.

vst export is only supported by Max 4.x and lower...

and you have to have the max runtime or pluggo runtime installed I believe if you want another person to use your vst.

Building VSTs in Max is unfortunately a waste of time in my humble opinion.

I wrestled with this problem for a while and eventually just decided to buy flowstone (formerly synthmaker) to build my VSTs

In my case I already learned a ton of stuff from Max that I was able to apply in Flowstone pretty easily.

I prefer Max but I think it's a damn shame you cant export to VST like you can in Flowstone...

Wow, looks very cool although I'm very disappointed it's not available for Mac (and a little disappointed that it's using Ruby, a language I always liked but feel is being overtaken by Python)

Might have to play with it anyway. Thanks for the mention.

Ok thanks for the heads up. Seems a shame.

Flowstone looks cool though, will look into it. Cheers.
