ok' here is the thing

I chose the 1st option and installed it, when i tried to load it on cubase i got messgae about "Wrong Validation Key!"

when i tried to launch it throu the start menu outside of cubase it worked...

I uninstalled it and tried to install choosing the 2nd option to install it inside your host, but when i tried it i got this message: Hercs not installed (or something like this)

then i tried to install the software (1st option) and then chose the 2nd option and it worked

so thanks a lot, I get so much joy using old vsts, and see this old software making nice sounds which i can use

Heh, yeah, possibly

Weird, anyway

well I tried to make some nice sounds with HERCS ALARM, to be honest its incredebly limited, and also it made my cubase crash really fast after i launched it, also every few minutes its reset it self to the last preset...i liked how it looked but really makes a lot of problems...

Herc's Alarm is very problematic, the dev was going to remake it but then just kind of stopped talking.

I had to keep the standalone in the same folder as the vst, and load it in a vst subhost. But it sounds cool, the presets captured what it's good for.

what do you mean by that? I`m not sure I understand you...what do you mean by VST SUBHOST (can you recommend any?)

by the way, is there a way to load VST throghu VST loader (or something like that) that will run under cubase...the idea is to

Cubase

VST (software which will launch vst)

VST

strange idea i know

...but maybe this way only the vst loader will crash and not CUBASE ITSELF...

Hello again

Well thank very much for the advice about energyXT1.4, Really made me happy to see Hercs Alarm working there

, its really limited VST but with some effects its possible to make cool sounds with it

The only thing that its kind of shame is that I couldn`t find a way ro write VST auotomations, with energyXT1....is it even possible?

xt have a forum here on kvr.

but all you do it click file,top left on vsti screen,and choose cc map.
then click 'add' and choose a param and give it a number.
then go to your midi track and at the bottom click cc,add cc choose your number,
then hold 'alt' and you can draw curves.
(snap/quantize size makes the interval size)

VSTi's definitely dont go out of date unless they had to be fixed up and improved, like impOSCar or freeware ones. The TS-404 from 1999 is one of the best sounding simple subtractive synths ever, freeware or not
