Hi,

Thanks for help.

Hi.
It's possible that it doens't work. I had complaints that zynaddsubfx doesnt work with some vst hosts (including steinberg).
While I will be able to see the reason, please use the standalone version.

I'm not sure but i think Kristal is not ready to use
vst instrument,but for vst effects it's allright

Oh!!!

How can I see, if the VST is an instrument or an effect?

Is there an, maybe, freeware VST host where I can use zynaddsubfx?

I love it and do not want to miss it any more.

You see it's an instruments if this make sounds when
you play midi notes with a keyboard or a midi file

You can use EnergyXT as a stand alone ,or the
vsti version of EnergyXT,there is also an effect version of EnergyXT,but only recognized as an effect.
EnergyXT is a kind of chainer interface that has three versions,one as a stand alone,the two others
are recognized as a vsti and vst effect in cubase.
I hope it's clear for you because it's not easy to
differenciate EnergyXT for someone who don't know

this is right, KRISTAL supports only VST effects therefore zynaddsubfx won't run there. KRISTAL is multitrack audio processing engine so it is not supposed to act as sound generator (therefore does not support VSTi I guess).

The most simple yet very capable small vst host is Tobybear's MiniHost. You can take it from kvr, it's donationware.

oh, and, by the way, take a look, I hope it's still available, at the most powerfull free sequencer made until now (if you want such a pice of gear

): Tracktion.
Good luck.

I succeeded in using a vst instrument in kristal and
coupling cristal audio engine synchronized with the
midi sequencer of energyXT,i did also midi recording
first and after an audio recording sync with the midi
and that's works

First i load in a channel fx,energyXTE and in this one
i load the Midi In XT plugin that allows to control
an instrument like ZynAddSufx and also the sequencer
in energyXT that you can sync with the Kristal host.
kristal can control the play of the sequencer but not
the recording,so it's better to begin the recording of
the midi and using the enrgyXT metronome by loading a
drum sample,like a rimshot.The sync is a real one and
the time or beats displayed in kristal shows the same
as the energyXT sequencer

Of course it's not cubase but it's all free!
