Software Description

VSTHost is a demonstrational Windows program written in order to comprehend the inner workings of VST plugins. VSTHost is capable of:

loading VST effects (aka "plugins")
parameterizing / editing them
sound output for VSTis
MIDI-input and -output
loading / saving .fxb files

The important part of the program is an implementation of a VST host in form of 2 classes:

CVSTHost

This implements the audio callback needed by an effect plugin as a neatly encapsulated VST host class. This is practically platform-independent code. The few platform-specific things are encapsulated in...

Ceffect

This encapsulates a VST effect, as loaded by the VST host. This class isn't fully complete - since I don't have a Mac, I've only included the Windows code.

Hey, the best hosting platform out there for live performance! AND IT"S FREE!!!!!! Even works well in Vista with a little larger buffer size. Helpful meter in bottom right corner shows how much CPU you are using in real time so you don't accidentally overload it. I've piled many many big chunky vsts into this thing and then routed them through all kinds of fx without a single crash. Simply the best out there as far as I've seen.

This software is pretty well unbeatable for running VST instruments and effects in real time with ASIO hardware. It is very efficiently coded and will alow you to run CPU heavy modules that you might not be able to under other hosts. While I have heard so much about krystal and energyXT, I still don't need to look at them because vsthost has not let me down yet. Thanks again Mr Hermann Seib.
