Generalized Music Plug-in Interface
Generalized Music Plug-in Interface (GMPI) is a working group of the MIDI Manufacturers Association set up to consider the feasibility of a standard interface for audio and MIDI software plug-ins, to complement or supersede existing vendor-specific interfaces such as Audio Units.
The GMPI group started work in 2003 and published a requirements draft in April 2005 . Progress has since stalled.
Jeff McClintock developed an implementation of GMPI for Microsoft Windows and Mac OS X, it's available as the SynthEdit Software Development Kit .
