Subject:VSTi Rack ?
Posted by: Pol Davril

I'm searching for a VSTi rack.
I mean, a VSTi instrument that is able to load 2 or more VSTi's and let them play simultaneously through the same MIDI channel.

I know Xluptop Chainer but I've had some crashes with it in the past.
So, I would like to try another one, if it exists.

Thanks !

Thanks Sari.
I've had a quick look at Forte, but it seems to be a standalone application and not a VSTi for using with Acid.
Am I right ?

Not quite a rack but energy xt can do it. http://www.xt-hq.com/

I still would recommend chainer though, I have not had any crashes with this with Acid 6.

Native Instruments Kore is another such VSTi rack, although it's rather pricey, especially if you don't need/want the included hardware controller.

no snub intended -- but FL runs as a vsti incase one needs to create a series of vsti instruments!

Thanks to everyone for the answers.

In fact, I'm searching for a very simple VSTi plugin, similar to the FFX4 effect rack by vb-audio. But this time, for loading VSTi instruments and route the MIDI channels. I would like a MIDI track to be routed to several VSTi's at the same time.

I don't know whether such a plugin exists...

energyXT again! You just place your VSTi's in the main window and connect them with virtual cables--one color for MIDI, one for audio. The demo is full featured and you only need to pay if you want to save and reload your projects.
