Basically, the SPARTA VST2 plugins support up to 64 channels (7th order Ambisonics), whereas the VST3 versions would instead support only up to 24 channels (3rd order Ambisonics), which is a significant downgrade. While Steinberg appear to be content with their self-imposed limitation for their own plugins, we are unable to do so as we frequently use these plugins with loudspeaker arrays comprising more than 24 channels (and 4th order+) for our research and teaching. If the VST3 SDK is updated, or a VST4 SDK comes along, which restores the features of the VST2 SDK, then we are happy to switch. However, until then, the VST2 SDK can be downloaded from, e.g.: |
