I want to start a new project. I noticed that steinberg does not longer provide v2.4. Should i go with the vst3.x sdk? What are the pro and contra?

The latest SDK still allows building VST2 plugins, but it doesn't anymore have the VST2 example plugin projects.flakes2 wrote:I want to start a new project. I noticed that steinberg does not longer provide v2.4. Should i go with the vst3.x sdk? What are the pro and contra?
Steinberg will probably deprecate VST2 completely in the future, so if you have the chance, it's probably better to start developing VST3 plugins now. (You could of course use something like IPlug or Juce which will allow you to build both VST2 and VST3 plugins now from the same source code. You won't really get the VST3 specific features that way though.)
