WINDOWS package:
----------------------
1. BlueARP_Win_VST2
- BlueARP.dll: VST2.4, 64 bit
2. BlueARP_Win_VST2_Legacy: VST2.4 version with old/legacy plugin ID, use it for
compatibility with your older projects
- BlueARP.dll: VST2.4, 32 bit (Windows XP compatible)
- BlueARP.x64.dll: VST2.4, 64 bit
3. BlueARP_Win_VST3
- BlueARP.vst3: VST3, 64 bit
Since 2.3.8 I changed plugin ID for vst2 version, to keep it in line with VST3 and
MIDI-FX.
Old plugin id is '7dWx', new is 'BArp'. If the new vst2 version doesn't work with
your existing projects,
use 'vst2_legacy' version along with the new one. It is recommended to use new vst2
version for
new projects, cause 'vst2_legacy' version will be supported only for a few next
releases.
