In Ableton Live, using VST plugins that send MIDI data traditionally requires setting up two separate tracks: one for the VST plugin itself and another to receive the MIDI data output. This setup can disrupt workflow by forcing users to switch between tracks frequently, making the production process less efficient and more cumbersome.

MIDI VST simplifies this process by enabling the use of VST plugins and instruments on a single track. It integrates within an Instrument Rack, allowing seamless transmission of MIDI data from the VST plugin in the first chain to other chains within the rack. This streamlined approach enhances workflow by keeping all related MIDI data and instruments consolidated in one place.

By combining MIDI sending and receiving functionalities into one track, MIDI VST reduces complexity and boosts productivity for producers working in Ableton Live. This tool is ideal for anyone looking to optimize their MIDI routing without adding extra tracks or interrupting the creative flow.
