Hello!
My VST Plugin needs to send Midi CC events to the Host so that I can simulate key-strokes (e.g. start recording). The VST Plugin should send these Midi CC events like a remote control device so that I can map the Midi CC events to key strokes in the studio setup.
There is the “initLegacyMIDICCOutEvent()” but it looks as if I can use this method only to send Midi CC events to an output channel. But I need to send the Midi events to an input channel to catch the events as if they come from a remote controller.
Thank you very much for any ideas that help me to send key-strokes to the host from my VST-Plugin!!
As you found out, plug-in MIDI output is not routed to the MIDI Remote Input of Cubase. You need to use the platform MIDI API to create a virtual endpoint.

—My English is not good, please forgive me
Correct.
Good way! But does it support versions before CuBase 12?
Thanks for your help.
I had problems to find documentation about the MIDI API. Today I found something helpful:
GitHub - steinbergmedia/midiremote-userscripts: A place for user created MIDI Remote API scripts
And a helpful example:
PreSonus FaderPort 2 (2018) midi remote script - Cubase - Steinberg Forums
All this is only available since Cubase Version 12.
