Interesting, thanks for sharing that. I'll have to look into it more.

Foobar2000 can host VST.

What extension are you using for this?
 
I never had much luck with it and could only get certain VST's to work with it. So I ended up giving up pretty quickly and instead I just set up a loopback and process things using Sonar.

I am not using any currently. I was using one of the popular extensions, hydrogen probably, to show some non-production-minded audio listening enthusiasts I know how they could use Foobar2000 and VSTs like Voxengo Scan to have some fun learning stuff. I set them up with  paragraphic EQ so they could tweak as entertainment, and I introduced them to compressors simply because it was easier to show them what compression sounds like than explaining how compressors work.
 
Last time I did this was probably 1 year ago and everything seemed to work as I expected it to.
 
 
best regards,

I have 4 sets of monitors....can ARC handle more than 1 pair of monitors? I like to switch back and forth to different monitors while mixing

Yes, you can test and save each set of monitors as a preset.

Exactly, you can have a different setting for each set and there is speaker modeling as well to change the overall feel and sound of each set if you really wanted to get into it.

What's the deal for UK customers Obi?
 
I can only find it listed for about £200 from most vendors

If you order it from Sweetwater you're not going to get it for a while. They called me to say it would be delayed. I guess they're getting a lot of orders.

Not all dealers are doing 50% off, or haven't updated it. You can order it directly from us otherwise.

How I route non-Sonar audio through ARC
 
I use my MOTU specifically for Sonar and my internal Realtek for Windows Media Player, VLC, web audio, etc.
To use ARC with the Realtek, I use VAC (Virtual Audio Cable) to route audio to Pedalboard2 and from Pedalboard2 to the Realtek. Pedalboard2 hosts VST's and that where I load ARC which stays active at all times for non-Sonar audio.
I've been doing this for quite a while now and it doesn't interfere with Sonar or the MOTU.
