I hope this is the right place to ask this.

I'm playing various soft synths hosted in VSTHost, and at certain times in the performance I want to play some .wav files. Is there perhaps a VST whose sole purpose is to play .wavs on command? Or some other way to accomplish what I need?

I thought you'd never ask!

That would be a 'sampler'.

If you're on Windows, the free Shortcircuit sampler is excellent and drag-and-drop.
(be sure to use v. 1.1.2 as 2.0 was never finished)

You can do that with HighLife as sampler and Discovery Pro or Corona as synths.

Thank you all for the suggestions! My .wav-playing needs are very minimal, so something simple like Sam!Solo 1.1 (thanks, VoltAirOhm) looked to be right up my alley. Unfortunately, VSTHost doesn't like more than one instance of it at a time, so I moved up to Sam 2.2, which is working OK so far.

more free samplers.

if you need something very simple, try SFZ+ (also free).

You could also try the Rehearse VST plugin. This plugin supports wave playback triggered by midi events and mouse clicks. The plugin is free.
