There are numerous so called "VST-plugin" effects available on the internet.
These VST effects can be used to manipulate audio.
I would like to know if there's a way to use the VST plugins with the .NET framework.

Yes there is! https://github.com/obiwanjacobi/vst.net
It supports implementing plugins in a .NET langauge that will run in unmanaged/native hosts (DAW) as well as hosting (loading) unmanaged/native plugins in a .NET application.

3Despite the warning not to use anything from Source3, it is easy enough to get it to compile, but sure enough my DAW did not want to load it.
I was able to fix the compiler error include "pluginterfaces/base/conststringtable.cpp" by downloading Audio VST3 SDK https://new.steinberg.net/developers/
Then change C++/Cli project Debug and Release project settings individually to include the path. But like the author of the repo says, it won't work.
