[Beta Testers Wanted] New VST Host for live keyboard players

Hey everyone,

I've been working on a new VST host built specifically for live keyboarders, in the same space as GigPerformer, Camelot, VST Live Pro, and MainStage. It's getting close to a beta-ready state and I'm looking for a few players willing to put it through its paces in rehearsal and maybe even on gigs.

A few things that set it apart:

  • Full decoupling of all I/O via virtual ports (MIDI in/out, audio in/out)
  • Plugin sandboxing so one bad plugin can't take down your whole rig
  • Multiprocessor support
  • Robust application architecture built for stability and performance
  • Keyboard range linking
  • A unique setlist view
  • Setlist and song racks
  • Easy setlist reordering
  • Full mixer with buses, groups, inserts, sends, etc.
  • Touch-friendly UI for tablets and touchscreens on stage

Heads up: Windows only for now. No Mac or Linux build yet.

If you play keys live and want to help shape this thing, shoot me a DM with a quick note about your rig and the kind of gigs you play. Happy to answer any questions in the comments too.

Cheers!
