VST-Spy : a free utility to reveal VST plugin IDs
Posted: Thu May 30, 2013 2:08 am
I don't know if this can be useful when writing custom rules... I've found this small free utility that reveals everything about all your VST plugins including the 4-byte unique code (the plug-in ID) that uniquely defines them. The program is called VST-Spy and can be downloaded freely from: http://www.tobybear.de/p_other.html
The output looks like this (the plugin ID is in the last column):
For some reason the program did not run on my Win7 64 machine, even in compatibility mode. Please let us know if you have better luck with it. BTW: Does anyone know of any other similar utility for Windows?
P.S. An interesting article somewhat related to this subject: http://www.soundonsound.com/sos/nov07/articles/pcnotes_1107.htm
UPDATE: Check VST-Scanner :
