Acknowledgements

Thank you, Open MPC

Open MPC led the way in opening standalone MPCs to third-party instruments and effects. Their tools, documentation and community catalogue have helped developers build for MPC and musicians discover new sounds. We’re standing on the shoulders of giants.

We built the on-device RAW MPC Plugin Loader using Open MPC’s build tools and VST2 runtime wrapper. We developed RAW’s USB Creator and installer for proprietary VSTs. RAW’s separate catalogue gives plugins whose source stays private a home, since Open MPC requires public source for a catalogue listing.
