Zen

Zen free file-manager by BigTick

Zen is a free file manager VST plugin developed by BigTick. Compatible OS(s): Windows 64b, macOS.

Zen is a Universal Presets Manager: It loads in any host as a VST instrument, and acts as a loader for other VSTis. So with Zen, you can search for “Rhodes piano” and get a list of all matching presets – regardless of the final VSTi (Rhino, Zebra, Absynth… whatever). When you select one of the presets in Zen, the corresponding VSTi is automatically loaded to play the requested preset.

Many popular VSTis are supported, and new ones are added daily. Eventually Zen aims to categorize all available presets, for all VSTis.

Zen is online
It constantly synchronizes its own local database of presets with a master online database hosted at www.bigtickaudio.com – users get new presets daily, delivered right into their sequencer, already categorized.

Zen for commercial presets designers
Commercial presets designers can use Zen to send demo versions of their presets to all potential customers. Users can preview the presets in Zen, directly in the context of their track, and buy the presets they like with just one click. Presets can be bought individually, as opposed to purchasing a full bank of presets.

ZynAddSubFX free software-synthesizer by paulnasca 2

waylo MIDI plugin pack is a free studio tools VST, Audio Unit plugin developed by sean wayland waylo software. Compatible OS(s): macOS.

​.

A MIDI plugin that stores the last note played. The next note is created relative to the note played. Middle C will repeat notes. C# will move the notes up a half step. D will move them up a whole step. B next to middle C will move the next note down by a half step. Better tried out than explained.

Midi Latch:

​.

A MIDI plugin that acts as a MIDI latch/hold. A “note on ” message is converted to a note off for any playing notes. A “note off ” message sends a note on if a note is not playing and sets it to “playing”. This allows you to quickly play a chord and it will sustain until you play a new chord. Deactiviting the plugin will kill the last chord played.

Midi WayloSynth:

​.

A MIDI plugin that allows the bottom half of the keyboard to transpose the top half.
