Virtual Studio Technology (VST) plugins are what amateur and professional audio engineers and artists use to enhance their audio projects. A plugin is a type of software that works inside another piece of software. Instead of working on its own, you plug it into something else.
What is a VST?
VST plug-ins are designed to work within the types of digital audio workstation (DAW) applications you use to make music at home and in professional studios.
Although VST plugins are designed for use with DAW applications, different types of VST plugins serve different purposes. VST instrument plugins let you insert various virtual instruments into an audio recording without having access to physical versions of those instruments, and VST effect plugins let you alter sounds in new and exciting ways.
Using different types of VST plugins together can create a more attractive end product.
