Basics

Requirements

You need a PC running Windows and a VST host.

The GVST plug-ins no longer require "gdiplus.dll".

Installation

1. All GVST plug-ins come compressed in a ZIP file, so the first step is to extract the files from the ZIP file.
2. Once extracted, you should have one or more DLL files, these are the plug-in files.
3. You need to copy the plug-in files to the appropriate folder for your host program.
4. In most cases, you will need either to restart the host program or re-scan the plug-in folder in order for newly-installed plug-ins to appear.

License

1. GVST plug-ins are provided to the user at no cost. While every GVST plug-in is tested to the best of the developer's ability, no warranty or guarantee is offered to the end user.
2. No suggestions made by the developer or his representatives (i.e., freely offered support) are to be taken as an implied warranty or guarantee.
3. These plug-ins may only be distributed by the official GVST website, or by parties explicitly given permission by the developer.
4. GVST plug-ins are to be distributed only in their original form as intended by the developer (i.e., the unaltered archive).
5. GVST plug-ins are freeware, meaning you are never under any obligation to pay for them! However, should you wish to help support continued development of GVST software, please consider donating through the official website.

Build Date and Plug-In Versions

Because of the nature of the GVST project, I have decided not to maintain individual version numbers for the plug-ins. There is a large quantity of shared code, which makes version control difficult. Changes to the code often affect several different plug-ins.

For the moment at least, all plug-ins will report their version as 1.0 to the host. For your information, the date each plug-in was last built is displayed on its page.

I would not make these plug-ins available if I did not feel that they were safe and stable. However, I cannot take responsibility for any damage, difficulty, or stress caused by their use.
