functionality) could be done in similar way as LADSPA and LV2 host are
done in libavfilter.

Yes ! The VST SDK has a command line VST host for testing compliance to
their API model. It's called something like VST tester or something. You
can compile it and see the source code. You could discard the test
classes/methods and keep the host and add it to ffmpeg. And yes you could
implement it like ladspa on how to call your VST plugins in ffmpeg's and
edit the parameters !
The big advantage would be that ffmpeg could tap into the numerous free
VST Plugins that are out there.
That's what I was hoping to get by going by starting this ticket 😅
