VST Plugins FAQ
What does VST stand for?
VST stands for Virtual Studio Technology.
VST plugins are pieces of software specifically crafted to work inside DAWs (Digital Audio Workstations) to expand their instrument and effects library.
Music plugins can also be used to streamline workflow, simplify the mastering process, and more.
Do VST plugins work on any DAW?
You can use a VST plugin with most DAWs, including FL Studio, Ableton Live, Reaper and Cubase. They’re compatible with Windows, Mac, and Linux operating systems, making them more versatile than AU and AAX plugins.
Do you need a DAW to run a VST?
VST plugins are designed to expand a DAW’s capabilities by giving creators access to a broader range of digital instruments and audio effects. They have to be opened and deployed by means of another piece of software – usually a digital audio workstation.
If you need quick access to a single VST plugin – for a live performance, say – you can open your plugin using a piece of freeware called a VST host program.
Many popular music plugins come with a “Standalone” mode, which allows the user to run the plugin without opening a sequencer.
Standalone software and VST host programs are much faster and lighter usage-wise than DAWs.
What is the difference between a VST and a plugin?
A VST is a type of plugin. Not all plugins are VSTs.
Plugins are pieces of software designed to expand the functions and abilities of a larger piece of software.
VST plugins are music plugins that specifically work with digital audio workstations. However, not all music plugins are VSTs. You’ll also come across AU plugins, which are specifically for Apple DAWs like Logic Pro, and AAX plugins, which only work with Pro Tools.
How do I install VST?
You can download and install VSTs in three easy steps
- Choose your desired plugin and download it from the developer’s website.Make sure you’re downloading the latest files; you want the most up-to-date version of the product for maximum effectiveness. Check the system requirements as well to ensure the plugin is compatible with your DAW and operating system.
- Choose the correct installation path for the plugin files. VST3s have a default path on Windows devices, but VST2s need to be directed to one of three folders. If your VST has a standalone version, install it in a separate folder.
- Launch your DAW. Check to be sure the installation was successful and that you’re able to open and use your new VST.
