![]() The good thing about that is that your MuLab installation is easily movable, and can be put on your USB stick for example.Īnother advantage is that you can have multiple independent MuLab installations on the same system, for example different versions of MuLab. The reason for this is that MuLab stores your user settings in a couple of files in MuLab/User/Settings. This is to avoid access problems caused by Windows' UAC mechanism.Īlternatively you could try to run MuLab with "Run as administrator". On Windows 7/8, it may be better not to install the Mulab App folder under the 'Program Files' folder, but rather in a non UAC protected folder like C:\Applications\Music\Mulab. You can even put it on a USB stick and carry your MuLab App with you. You can move the MuLab App folder after you have installed it. It does not install anything on your system outside this folder. MuLab App comes as a portable and self-containing folder. On Windows that's MuLab.exe, on MacOS that's MuLab.app. Please make sure that the complete folder path towards the MuLab Plugin folder does not contain any special characters, except for plus, minus (hyphen), underscore, round brackets and square brackets.Īfter you have extracted the MuLab package, double-click the MuLab application file to launch it. Minimum graphics space of 1024 x 768 pixels.ĭownload the MuLab App zip package and unzip it to a new folder on your harddisk or USB device.Good soundcard/device with good driver and with at least 1 stereo output.KRISTAL Audio Engine is an interesting 16-track sequencer which can load VST effects, but unfortunately doesn’t support MIDI, hence no VST instruments can be used.įeel free to leave comments suggesting other free VST host applications I may have missed and I’ll include them in the list. SAVIHost, MiniHost and VSTHost are lightweight and easy to use VST host applications, perfect for quickly testing new VST plugins. I must admit i’m not very experienced with trackers, but I know there are many people who don’t use sequencers at all and go for trackers instead, so this one’s for them. ![]() Psycle is a free tracker which also works as a VST host. Usine Free, LiveProfessor, Rack Performer, VstBoard and Cantabile Lite are VST hosts suitable for live use, Usine currently being the most popular one. It is very stable, perfectly designed, and definitely worth checking out ( as well as the Pro version). The only serious limitation of the free version is that it uses a single CPU core, but the amount of features available at no cost is simply insane. Podium Free is without a doubt your best choice if you’re looking for a full-featured freeware DAW. Even with the 4-track limit of the free version, it is still a very powerful modular VST host which will let you create some crazy FX and instrument chains using your favorite VSTs. MuLab FREE is my favorite freeware VST host application. Although the actual software installation never expires, you should purchase a licence if you use it longer than 30 days (there is however Reaper v0.999 which is still available for free, many thanks to vian for sharing the info in the comments!). People often mention Reaper as a free VST host, but please note that Reaper is actually commercial software with a 30-day trial period.
