They are simply two different types of plugins, but they are both open standards which means that anybody is allowed to create DXi or VSTi plugins. Some 'host' software will let you use one of these types, and some will even let you use both types. Here are some links to the areas on this site where you can download Plugins and Host software: VSTi Plugins- http://www.hitsquad.com/smm/cat/PLUGINS_VSTI/ DXi Plugins- http://www.hitsquad.com/smm/cat/PLUGINS_DXI/ VST Hosts- http://www.hitsquad.com/smm/cat/HOSTS_VST/ DX Hosts- http://www.hitsquad.com/smm/cat/HOSTS_DX/ I hope this helps, Jason.
