Hello,

the list of working VSTs is only available on the old wiki and gave me a hard time to find it.

Please integrate the list in the current user manual. Or set at least links to it on
Using VSTs and VeSTige

Atm our documentation is inconsistent. The list you should pay attention to is not the list of those VSTs that works in LMMS, but the very short list of those that does not!

Hello and thanks for the warm welcome, MusicBear

I think I will stick a little bit around and post more frequently in this forum.
At least if I have something useful to say.

Isn't this just one reason more to include links to the manual?
And why is Helm not working inside LMMS? I experienced no problems so far.

Absolutely, and i also link to articles in wiki, when they are relevant

Hello MusicBear,

I gave it a try yesterday and was able to past the test, using Helm 64bit VST on Windows.
You can save basic settings as Helm's own patches and LMMS presets.
Only Helm's internal automations won't be saved as LMMS presets. But you can save it as Helm patches.

Best regards -
Sascha

Okey. Thanks for the report! The list has been locked, so no edits anymore
Atm Documentation is in a transit void.
