VST Live 3 is Steinberg’s live performance system for musicians who want to put on a complete show with sound, lights, video and cameras – from living room concerts to big stage productions and live streaming.

In VST Live 3 you prepare your complete show: backing instruments, vocals, lyrics and chord tracks, MIDI tracks, lighting effects and cameras run in sync with every song in your set list, and Cubase or Nuendo projects can be imported directly. It includes a wide range of virtual instruments, among them the Flux and Trip synth modules and Groove Agent SE, plus effects, a sequencer with click tracks, a mixer and multitrack recording of your performance. Lighting is controlled via DMX, and lyrics and chord symbols can be sent over the network to your band members’ devices. With the Video Director you decide when each camera or video stream switches, and the direct OBS connection lets you stream multi-camera content live.
