If you can get your hands on the upcomming version of NI kontrol or Akai VIP software, then they would make a perfect host for most arranger players.. As they present you with an easy browsable list of all your VST sounds... All in one neat place...

Both work very well witouth the intended controllers of NI and Akai.. The Akai software was available as a free download and the NI software comes with komplete for free..

I have set up my Zero SL to comtroll them and that works like a charm.. Its so nice for just playing around with these sounds at home




The best host for a live setup is Mainstage 3, only available on macbook, but its only €30 and comes with a whopping 120GB of VST sounds, all high class, the complete logic VST and VST effects collection.... If you have a. Macbook, then this is a must have if you want to start out with VSts...

All major keyboard players working from a software setup with VSts probably use mainstage 3...
