Perhaps people are slow to change, or the creators of audio software are afraid of models which challenge the existing paradigm. However, most audio software packages have not taken any steps to further the move away from the traditional studio model. When VST was created, the realization was made that the effect modules, which used to sit in racks, could simply be put directly onto the tracks (which were themselves modeled after the mixer and tape machine configuration in studios) without needing an explicit modular system to wire them together.Īt this point, the line between discrete sound modules, tape tracks, and audio sources was removed.
Audio is carried along cables through other modules and into a mixing board, which feeds the tape machine tracks. Instruments are things held by humans, or modules which sit in racks. In a physical studio, audio is recorded to tracks. The fundamental model that VST reproduces is that of its namesake, a "virtual studio" where you send sequence data or audio into modules which output audio. They have mostly replaced large studio installations used to create produced music. I am assuming you are familiar with digital audio workstations.
