The use of DAWs, already revolutionary in that era, became even more groundbreaking when the musical software company Steinberg included this technology in its own DAW, the classic Cubase. The usefulness of DAWs before 1996 was limited to controlling keyboards and external sythesizer modules using MIDI, and the rest of the recording process and audio mixing was done in the same way that it’s done now in live concerts, by plugging all the outputs into a mixer and recording the resulting stereo mix, which made the final result not very easy to handle. This technology lets you bring your old MIDI files to life, replacing your outdated MIDI soundbank with virtual VST instruments. This technology is what makes it possible to emulate and run on your computer all those mega-expensive effects modules, sythesizers, and drum machines that you’d find in a professional recording studio, as well as virtual instruments that emulate keyboards, guitars, basses, and myriad other real-world instruments.

Virtual Studio Technology, commonly called VST, is one the oldest user interfaces out there for integrating sound effects on a Digital Audio Workstation (DAW).
