Default best option for hosting VST / AU plgs in Pro Tools

Hi, am looking at options to load/host VST / AU plug-in pro tools,

Anyone have any advise,

I've there seen the various options, I would like to avoid plug-in delay especially with instruments and obviously any audio quality loss

We use bluecat Patchwork and MB7-2 both cost around $60-$100 but works great and I guess you mean Latency not Delay.

MB-7 works great.

Another good one is DDMF’s Metaplugin. I use it to add a “wet/dry” control to any plugin which is missing one. You can also make plugin chains and it supports VIs and Midi.

... I have tested extensively with Patchworks and MB7-mk2 and there are no audible dfferences with or without the wrappers.

+1 patchworks here and you can add Jbrigder if your Vst are 32bit.

I have metaplugin by DDMF also but maybe is me but sounds different from patchworks, don't like it personally.
