Look out, Cantabile and Gig Performer.

They also have an accompanying iOS app, VST Live Mods, that displays chord, lyrics, and a metronome.  Could be useful.

Requires the Pro version though.

Given that this is a new product, would it only support VST3 (given that Steinberg ended their support for VST2 on Cubase)?  I would expect AU support on Mac.

I’m interested in this product space.  Looking for a lightweight, reliable program for live use (mainly for hosting amp sims).  I want to be able to press a pedal on a MIDI controller and switch on and off effects and scenes/presets (pretty rudimentary).

Studio One Professional has a Show Page/performance view. It’s good for setting whole scenes/presets but it wasn’t so obvious how to switch individual plugins on and off by MIDI CC.

Looked at Cantibile.  I like that it’s focused on being lightweight.  Unfortunately, it’s Windows only.

Been waiting on a deal on Gig Performer, but now I might as well check this out.

I know a number of folks on here use Gig Performer.  Any thoughts?
