WIN32 : Minimal VST 2.x host in C++11.

minimal_vst2x_host.cpp

// Win32 : Minimal VST 2.x Synth host in C++11.
//
// This is a simplified version of the following project by hotwatermorning :
//      A sample VST Host Application for C++ Advent Calendar 2013 5th day.
//      https://github.com/hotwatermorning/VstHostDemo
//
// Usage :
//      1. Compile & Run this program.
//      2. Select your VST Synth DLL.
//      3. Press QWERTY, ZXCV, etc.
//      4. Press Ctrl-C to exit.

@Israel-7, since I don't know anything about your program, I recommend you to play with this code before (re-) implement your own.

I can say that this example is able to extend to support multiple VSTs with the following modification:

/**/ indicates modified or added line.

(1) main() : Add second VST

int main() {
    ComInit comInit {};

/**/const auto dllFilename0 = []() -> std::wstring {
        wchar_t fn[MAX_PATH+1] {};
        OPENFILENAME ofn { sizeof(ofn) };
        ofn.lpstrFilter = L"VSTi DLL(*.dll)\0*.dll\0All Files(*.*)\0*.*\0\0";
        ofn.lpstrFile   = fn;
        ofn.nMaxFile    = _countof(fn);
        ofn.lpstrTitle  = L"Select VST DLL (#0)";
        ofn.Flags       = OFN_FILEMUSTEXIST | OFN_ENABLESIZING;
        GetOpenFileName(&ofn);
        return fn;
    } ();

/**/const auto dllFilename1 = []() -> std::wstring {
/**/    wchar_t fn[MAX_PATH+1] {};
/**/    OPENFILENAME ofn { sizeof(ofn) };
/**/    ofn.lpstrFilter = L"VSTi DLL(*.dll)\0*.dll\0All Files(*.*)\0*.*\0\0";
/**/    ofn.lpstrFile   = fn;
/**/    ofn.nMaxFile    = _countof(fn);
/**/    ofn.lpstrTitle  = L"Select VST DLL (#1)";
/**/    ofn.Flags       = OFN_FILEMUSTEXIST | OFN_ENABLESIZING;
/**/    GetOpenFileName(&ofn);
/**/    return fn;
/**/} ();

    try {
/**/    mainLoop(dllFilename0, dllFilename1);
    } catch(std::exception &e) {
        std::cout << "Exception : " << e.what() << std::endl;
    }
}

(2) mainLoop() : Add second VST

/**/
void mainLoop(const std::wstring& dllFilename0, const std::wstring& dllFilename1) {
/**/ VstPlugin vstPlugin0 { dllFilename0.c_str(), GetConsoleWindow() };
/**/ VstPlugin vstPlugin1 { dllFilename1.c_str(), GetConsoleWindow() };
/**/ Wasapi wasapi { [&vstPlugin0, &vstPlugin1](float* const data, uint32_t availableFrameCount, const WAVEFORMATEX* const mixFormat) {
/**/     refillCallback(vstPlugin1, data, availableFrameCount, mixFormat, false);
/**/     return refillCallback(vstPlugin0, data, availableFrameCount, mixFormat, true);
     }};

    ...

    for(bool run = true; run; WaitMessage()) {
        MSG msg {};
        ...

        for(auto& e : keyMap) {
            auto& key = e.second;
            const auto on = (GetKeyState(e.first) & 0x8000) != 0;
            if(key.status != on) {
                key.status = on;
/**/            vstPlugin0.sendMidiNote(0, key.midiNote, on, 100);
/**/            vstPlugin1.sendMidiNote(0, key.midiNote, on, 100);
            }
        }
    }
}

(3) refillCallback() : Add additive mode

/**/
bool refillCallback(VstPlugin& vstPlugin, float* const data, uint32_t availableFrameCount, const WAVEFORMATEX* const mixFormat, bool additive) {
    ...
    while(availableFrameCount > 0) {
        ...
        for(size_t iFrame = 0; iFrame < nFrame; ++iFrame) {
            ...
            for(size_t iChannel = 0; iChannel < nDstChannels; ++iChannel) {
               ...
/**/            if(additive) {
/**/                *(data + ofs + wasapiWriteIndex) += vstOutput[vstOutputPage][vstOutputIndex];
/**/            } else {
/**/                *(data + ofs + wasapiWriteIndex) = vstOutput[vstOutputPage][vstOutputIndex];
/**/            }
               ...
            }
        }
        ...
    }
    ...
}
