I’m not sure what you mean by dropping support. Please read [Log In - Steinberg Developer Help](https://developer.steinberg.help/display/VST/About+MIDI+in+VST+3) for information regarding which concepts are used in VST3. The good thing is, with VST3 support you get automatic support for MIDI 2 when the host supports it, you just have nothing to do as a plug-in developer all the burden has to be done by the host developer.
