Does Bidule VST Work Properly with Synfire?

Hi All,

 

I want to use Bidule to create multi VST patches (VST arpeggiator, VST sound generator, VST effect, all tempo synced) that can be saved as one VST instance that is easily loaded within Synfire.

 

Can anyone confirm if this works as stated before I purchase Bidule? There is no demo of the Bidule VST.

 

Thank you, jeremy

Just tested on OS X. Bidule AudioUnit works fine for AU and VST plugins and effects. I assume it would also work on Windows with Bidule VST, but can't test currently.

However, Bidule does not seem to pass through the transport playhead position, so it might not work as well with sequencer style plugins (e.g. Maschine). If you need tempo sync, arps or anything like that, you may be out of luck.

Can't talk about Bidule but EnergyXT works in Synfire Express including tempo sync and arp plugins.

Xlutop Chainer does not (for the record).
