How can I use VST instruments with Notation products?

Notation Composer 5 offers the RealTime feature where VSTs can be loaded. Please visit
https://www.notation.com/ComposerDocs5/realtime_audio_advanced.htm
for full information.

How to use VST instruments in previous versions of Notation products, please see the many discussions in our Users Forum (https://www.notation.com/vb-forum/index.php ), as well as the Tutorial Videos at https://www.notation.com/TutorialVideos.php . 

The basic overview is that you will need:

1. Notation Musician or Notation Composer
2. A "virtual" (software) MIDI cable such as LoopBe
3. A VST "host" such as Hermann Seib's VST Host, or SynthFont.

Details about obtaining the virtual MIDI cable and a VST Host are available on the forum and in the videos.
