With Logic I know some plugins (I think only Logic native plugins) could run on another machine and display their GUI on the main system. I have not seen AU plugins that could do this (though I have not tried in a long time).


Issue 1 is different architecture. Not sure if that can be translated on the fly. And I am SURE a lot of plugins would not work since a lot of people do crazy stuff in their plugins.

Issue 2 is maybe in the future the AU specification will have other GUI provisions so people could provide an additional GUI or control surface to another device over wifi.

No one from Apple seems to have picked this up yet. Maybe they're all busy:-)



Last time I checked, the file LogicAUProperties.h appeared to document all that's necessary for an AU to be used in this way.


I noticed that a lot of people here seem never to use AU properties at all, and if you only ever use parameters, then (unless I'm missing something important) making your AU work like this ought not to be too much hassle.

With my synth the biggest issue would be flattening all those of my AU properties which are passed as property list objects (NSDictionary, NSString, NSArray and so on) which is why I haven't done it. Maybe at some point there'll be some audio toolbox helper functions for doing that.....
