Musicians and live performers looking to put on a great show with synchronized sound, lights, and video will be impressed with the Steinberg VST Live 1.1 Crossgrade, an advanced live performance system that includes virtual instruments and effects, sync features for your music, text and chord symbol displaying on other devices, video, Cubase import, MIDI tracks for direct DMX light control, and much more.

VST Live has all the functions needed to get your songs ready for the stage. For your sound, it includes a complement of virtual instruments and an integrated sequencer. You can also display song text and chord symbols on other devices, so everybody is literally "on the same page". Lights and video need to be very tightly integrated with the music, so VST Live allows synchronization of lights and offers as many video tracks as you need, ensuring that everything happens at the precise moment it should.

Modules is a major new feature of VST Live, which allows its capabilities to be significantly expanded. In the same way that you can add inventive new effects plug-ins to your DAW, VST Live modules can be created, which bring new dimensions to your live performances, enhancing the performer and audience experience. And with a software developer's kit available from Steinberg, third-party developers can develop new modules for VST Live where the only limit is their imagination.

VST Viewer is the first module for VST Live, allowing the user to view and show PDF files. This can be used for a wide variety of applications; for example, to let musicians see sheet music on their display, show images on screens for the audience, or many other uses; it's up to you. Adjustable Actions can be used to assign MIDI events; for example, to turn the pages of PDF sheet music by pressing a certain key on the keyboard or footswitch. VST Viewer can open many possibilities.

The new global part feature lets you create and store settings which are accessible throughout an entire VST Live project; for example, the global part can be used to store layers and zones, stacks and modules, giving quick and easy access to elements that you will always want readily on hand.

VST Live now includes a signature track, allowing you to add time signature events quickly and easily to your VST Live project.

VST Live now includes a tempo track, allowing you to quickly and easily create tempo changes within your VST Live project.

For quick updates and changes to your project on the fly, VST Live now includes basic MIDI editing. The ability to draw, erase, and correct MIDI data means last-minute changes to anything triggered by MIDI, even during the performance itself, is now possible.

Q: 7. Sturdy enough to use with Sony a7iii and Sony G 200-600?

A: While the Manfrotto Befree 3-way Live Advanced (Sony Alpha) tripod is designed to safely support the weight, the stability of such a top heavy combination might not feel the most stable or the most comfortably handled. Furthermore, the provided quick release plate (200PL-PROSONY) is primarily designed to fit Sony Alpha camera bodies and not their lenses; it has a slight curve to it that allows it to sit flush with the edge of the body rather than the lens. I'd recommend purchasing an additional 200PL plate in order to mount onto your lens' tripod foot.
