Does Logic Pro X use VSTs?

[bigcat1969]

I got someone saying they can't install a VST on Logic Pro X. Does Logic even use VSTs? For a long time they were AU only. I thought they had gone VST, but I saw recent discussions from folks saying VSTs didn't work in the DAW. Very confused.

I'm pretty sure Logic is AU only, last I knew. AU and Logic are both made/maintained by Apple.

In either case, the installation process is almost identical, just to copy to 'VSTs' instead of 'Components'.

Somebody told me of an AU plugin with the express purpose of being a VST host. That is, it acts as an adapter so that you can use VSTs in garage band or Logic. I don't remember its name, but I can probably dredge it up if anybody is interested.

Thanks guys. Not sure why I never seem to have done the Sonatina rompler in AU, but did most of the instruments. Whose nose, I could be odd back in the day...
