Hi Charley,


I found 4 Standalone Options to run Scaler 2 on the Scaler Forum:


1.

This is a free VST Host for Windows.
It can Host and Play virtual Instruments live.
It Works on Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8.1, 10 and 11.

This is the best solution.


2.
NanoHost

This is a free DAW for Windows that can load VST-synths.

You can convert any VST-Synth into a standalone application.
