Two major divisions are perceptible when considering the Architecture of VST systems: The I/O approach and the Software approach. In addition to these approaches to attacking the problems and addressing the challenges, are the motivations for developing and using such technology: Making Music and/or Art, Making Money or simply engaging in Innovation for its own sake.
