vPlayer 4 is a standalone VST/AU host developed for playing live an audio plugin rig on stage or while doing a rehearsal, for jamming with virtual synths or for quick testing new plugins, all without the need to use any DAW, which is usually more complex to setup. vPlayer 4 acts as a wrapper to turn any vst/au into a standalone application.
While a traditional DAW can be used for live performance, many musicians prefer the stability and ease of use that comes with dedicated VST hosts.
vPlayer 4 allows playing up to 8 vst/au instruments at same time using up to 4 different midi keyboards, so you can join a quick loading jamming session with your friends.
Each slot includes 1 virtual instrument plugin section and 1 effect plugin section. Each effect plugin section can be used also as an additional instrument plugin section, playing up to 8 instruments at same time.
Parallel mode allows using 4 independent slots while Serial mode allows playing 1 virtual instrument through 7 effect plugins or to process audio input through 8 effect plugins.
