The V-Machine runs on the Powered by VFX platform developed by VFX Systems Pty Ltd, Melbourne Australia.

The Powered by VFX platform is a software framework designed to provide robust audio media support in embedded devices. Built on a modern operating system core, the Powered by VFX platform is a dedicated lightweight solution offering extremely low overheads in comparison to traditional computer based solutions. The result is a robust powerful platform well suited for the high performance requirements of low latency audio hardware devices. Built in support for leading audio processing technologies such as Steinberg’s renowned VST (Virtual Studio Technology) plug-in format means dedicated hardware units can take advantage of the benefits of computer audio plug-in technology.

  

What are Wizard Files? 

Many VST plugins only require a VST format .dll file as our Plug-ins. This is fine for many installations. Other plugins are much more detailed and require additional supporting files such as samples, Windows registry entries, preset files, etc.

The VFX Application only knows how to install these more detailed plugins via a plugin information wizard file (vfxinfo.txt). Each plugin information wizard file provides information to the V-Machine such as what files to transfer during synchronization to the V-Machine.
