Steinberg delivers VST Live Pro 2

Crafting an incredible live show goes beyond musicianship and songwriting as artists look to control and manipulate both audio and visual elements in real-time. The team at Steinberg understands the challenge this can pose and has released its latest software to support live performances.

For musicians taking the stage, it is generally expected that live acts sound a bit more polished than the rough sounds that come from garages and other practice spaces around the world. Combining various FX, triggering samples, or even controlling the lighting of a venue can quickly help elevate a live set and draw more attention from fans. To help artists and their teams put together a great live show without a ton of stress and extra work, the team at Steinberg has released its latest and most powerful live software yet, VST Live Pro 2. The new release offers a wide variety of new and powerful production tools to help elevate any live performance.

Introduced in the newly updated software was the inclusion of Flex Loops, a feature that helps add variation to live sets. Artists will be able to take a specific section or element of a song to create different parts and then loop them for specific durations. Steinberg has further improved the VST Live Pro software by responding to user feedback and now allows automation data to be recorded without being linked to any specific track or instrument, and can be assigned to any target after being captured.

Boasting new utility plug-ins, users will also be able to quickly manipulate and control both MIDI and DMX plug-ins, for control over both audio and visual aspects. The MIDI data will work to give control over VST instruments, similar to workflows within common DAWs. The DMX plug-in feature works with visual aspects of a performance, giving control over lighting and programming visuals that operate in time with the music.
