You can happily use C in standard VSTs (to be loaded in any DAW and similar software, living in the tracks' FX chains) and in dedicated Reaper plugins (that can use the VST API plus a Reaper propriety API connecting it to the guts of reaper).
BTW.: there is an EEL to C converter (creating VSTs), but note vice-versa.

The Reaper-to-DMX system my friend I mentioned did, sends Midi Sysex messages via a a standard midi channel via USB to the box that creates the DMX output. The Sysex messages hold 8 Bit (or more) values, plus information such as scenes and file names. BTW. he found that to do a really decent show the DMX information needs to be created faster than just synchronized to audio-sample-blocks).
