Has anyone taken a DXi instrument and made it into a VST ?

 
I am wondering if I can take Cakewalk DXi instrument TTS-1 and make it into a VST so its available outside Sonar?
I'd like it available in Reaper.
I heard you can make a wrapper somehow, but am not sure how to do this.
Any ideas?

IIRC, Reaper is a DirectX host.

Use Rapture Session instead.   Usually the TTS-1 will not show up.

Bob, I tried that option (rescanned), Reaper did not pick up TTS-1.  I think its because TTS-1 is 32bit, and Reaper is 64bit.
@kitekrazy1 - - I have Rapture, is TTS included in Rapture?

Reaper will pick up both bit. Rapture Session has the other Sonar instruments.  TTS-1 is a GM module. You can definitely find something better.

DirectX plug-ins are platform specific. For 64bit SONAR to load TTS-1 there must be a 64bit version of TTS-1.

I'd like to see it, if only for one instrument. TTS-1 has the best Tuba I've heard. I don't use any other.

Yeah, I actually got this to work.  Simply copied the .DLL files into a folder and copied my TTS-1.dll into that folder and told Reaper to go look for it, and voila!  
thanks all.
