When used as a plug-in, ARIA Player is not a standalone program but rather a virtual instrument player module that is integrated into a hostAudio or notation software that makes use of virtual instrument plug-ins. When the ARIA Player is used as a plug-in, your audio or notation software hosts it. application, such as your sequencerA computer program used for storing and transmitting sequences of musical information. Similar to a player piano that transcribes and plays musical information as holes in paper, MIDI sequencers use electronic data to record and reproduce performances. or notation softwareA computer program used for notating music. Common examples include MakeMusic Finale and Avid Sibelius.. One of the benefits to using the ARIA Player as a plug-in is the ability to open multiple instances of the ARIA Player at the same time, allowing for a total of more than 16 instrument slots. These are some of the various uses as a plug-in:

• MIDI recording and sequencing
• Audio mixing of software instrument tracks within a single program
• Automation of parameters in the host program
• Effect processing of instrument sounds using effects plug-ins
• Saving and recalling of all plug-in settings when the project is reloaded
• Integration with other instruments into a “virtual studio”

• VST plugins are usually.dll files When the plugin is expanded, you must drop it into the VST dedicated folder of the host. When it's done, the plugin must appear into the 'effects' or 'VST' menu of the host. For WaveLab: C: Program Files WaveLab Plug-ins; For Cubase: C: Program Files Steinberg Vstplugins.

To use the ARIA Player as a plug-in instrument, launch your sequencer or notation program and load the ARIA Player from within it. Make sure that your host program is properly installed and configured, and that it is producing sound properly. Used as a plug-in, the ARIA Player’s audio and MIDI settings are managed by the host program. During installation, you choose which plug-in types to install on your computer.

The ARIA Player is designed for any audio or music software that supports virtual instrument plug-ins. Each program has its own approach to installing, loading, and accessing plug-ins, so it is important to refer to the instructions in the host program’s user manual regarding plug-in support and handling. If you choose to include the VST plug-in during the ARIA Player installation, you are prompted to specify the location where you want to place it. The typical default location is C:Program Filesvstplugins or C:vstplugins. In this folder, there are two versions of the ARIA Player: ARIA Player VST_x86.dll, which contains a single stereo output, and ARIA Player Multi VST_x86.dll, which allows you to assign up to 16 stereo outputs. You may also see 64-bit versions of the plug-in here, ending in x64 rather than x86. You may need to direct your host application to this folder. Alternatively, you can copy the ARIA Player VST file to your host program's own VST folder. Please refer to your host program's user guide and the Garritan Knowledge Base for more information.

Some 64-bit hosts have one common VST folder for both 64-bit and 32-bit plug-ins; only use the version of the plug-in that is native to your host.

You can always find a copy of the ARIA Player VST in the C:Program FilesGarritanARIA PlayerVST folder also. However, we do not recommend using this folder as the main location for VST plug-ins on your computer, since uninstalling the ARIA Player removes this directory.

Set up plug-ins on Windows

Before you set up your plug-ins with your host program, ensure that you've installed them.

The VST plug-in files for the ARIA Player are named ARIA Player VST_x64.dll and ARIA Player VST_x86.dll for the 64-bit and 32-bit versions respectively.

The steps for configuring VST plug-ins with a host program are entirely dependent upon the host. Please consult your host program's documentation for specific instructions.

Typically, that set up process usually involves one of the following procedures:

• Copy the ARIA Player VST_x64.dll or the ARIA Player VST_x86.dll file to the folder that your host program scans for VST plug-ins.

If your host is a 32-bit program, copy the ARIA Player VST_x86.dll file to the host's plug-in folder. If it's 64-bit, copy the ARIA Player VST x64.dll file to the host's plug-in folder.

• Or, in the host program, specify the folder(s) that it should look in to find your VST plug-ins.

If you don't remember where you initially installed the VST plug-in files, you can find an extra copy in C:Program FilesGarritanARIA PlayerVST.

After completing either procedure, you may need to direct your host program to rescan your plug-ins folders.

If chosen upon installation, RTAS or AAX plug-ins are automatically installed into the correct location for your Pro Tools software.

Set up plug-ins on Mac

When you install the ARIA Player on Mac, all of the available plug-ins that you chose to install are automatically installed to the correct locations. On Mac, host programs use the same folders for VST or Audio Units plug-ins.

After installation, you may need to direct your host program to rescan your plug-ins folders. Please consult your host program's documentation for specific instructions.

Using the ARIA Player with a notation program

For more information about using the ARIA Player with notation programs, please refer to the instructions in your notation program’s user manual regarding the loading and operation of virtual instrument plug-ins. Some notation programs may not support virtual instrument plug-ins.

There are two ways to use ARIA Player with notation programs. One is to use it as a virtual instrument plug-in, as described above. The other is to use the ARIA Player standalone and route MIDI output from the notation application to the player. This is a more complex setup suggested only for advanced users.

VST Expression support

Some of the sample libraries available for ARIA support VST Expression, a new system that dramatically simplifies handling of articulations and expressions when using the sample libraryA piece of software consisting of a collection of recorded instrument sounds. Sample libraries can be used to play back existing MIDI sequences or to act as a live virtual instrument. within Steinberg Cubase. The new technology makes recording and editing articulation commands much easier, with all articulation data displayed separately in both track inspector and editor windows. More information about VST Expression can be found at the Steinberg website.

What is a VST3 file?

Converting .dll Vst Files To .vst For Mac Osx

A VST3 file is a plugin used by various digital audio workstations DAWs, such as Steinberg Cubase and Image-Line FL Studio. It contains information about an instrument or audio effect typically used to modify recorded sounds. VST3 files are saved in the VST 3 (Virtual Studio Technology 3) standard.

VST3 files were introduced when the VST 3 plugin standard was released by Steinberg in 2008. Previously, .VST files were used to store plugins saved in the VST and VST 2 standards. You can open VST3 files with various DAWs, such as Steinberg Cubase and Image-Line FL Studio. However, the .vst3 file extension may not be used in the Windows versions of select DAWs, such as FL Studio. Instead, the .dll file extension may be used in Windows. In these cases, you must change the .vst extension to .dll in order for the plugin to be used.

In macOS, VST3 files can typically be found in one of the following locations:

• [Macintosh HD]/Library/Audio/Plug-ins/VST
• [Macintosh HD]/Library/Audio/Plug-ins/VST3
• [Macintosh HD]/Users/Username/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/VST3

In Windows, VST3 or .DLL files can typically be found in one of the following locations:

• Program FilesCommon FilesVST3
• Program FilesVST3
• Program Files (x86)Common FilesVST3
• Program Files (x86)VST3
