Airwindows VSTs not usable

Any chances of getting the GUIless Airwindows VSTs to work with Sonar Platinum (probably with other editions as well)? The plugins probably work ok per se, but since they don't have any GUI implementation, the parameter sliders are missing and value editing results in a mess of overlapped rendered texts at the value field locations. Wouldn't want to resort to automating the parameters for every plugin...
 
Thanks,

    Have you tried making your own UI using an FX chain? Here is AIR in a very basic FX chain

    Brilliant! That's just the "wrapper" that I sort of was looking. Thanks, will try it! It's an extra step, but what the heck, since you can save these chains as a library and don't have to build them again.
     
    Still would like to have them work without extra wiring, but this will get me going for sure...   8)

    Another nice feature is that they are usable inside the ProChannel or the fx box

    [edit] looks like the free version will only work with plug and mix plugs, you need to purchase to get to be able to use 4rd party plugs, so maybe not of interest

    So did SONAR drop support for GUI-less VST plugins?  I thought this used to work but it sure doesn't look like it does anymore.
