# VST3 plugin class ID migration
|
|
|
|
As someone pointed out, the development version of yabridge's VST3 support was
|
|
not compatible with projects containing VST3 plugins saved on Windows. As it
|
|
turned out, the class IDs VST3 plugins use to identify themselves with have a
|
|
different format on Windows than they do on Linux. As of commit
|
|
[1b804bd5ea4485cb204e40d476ef54801b1ecb38](https://github.com/robbert-vdh/yabridge/commit/1b804bd5ea4485cb204e40d476ef54801b1ecb38)
|
|
yabridge converts between those formats for cross-platform compatibilty, but
|
|
this does mean that containing VST3 plugins running through yabridge saved
|
|
before that commit will no longer be compatible. As a temporary migration path,
|
|
there are a few scripts here that you can use to convert old project files to
|
|
the new format.
|
|
|
|
These scripts won't overwrite any existing files, but remember to always make
|
|
more backups than you really need!
