How to build a fail-proof, redundant system with VST Live

Hi @all,

anyone here with experience how to build a fail-proof system with VST LIVE.

I researched on the internet and found that Radial Engineering and iConnectivity build audio interfaces with fail over switch. You can connect two computer to the interface. The interface is monitoring the audio stream and switches to the other device if any errors occur.

How to configure two computers that VST LIVE plays at the same time?
Are there other (cheaper) possibilities?

Thx for your input in advance :slight_smile:

Hi!

  • There are sound devices/systems they can handle multiple computers

  • use video mixer for the two VSTL video sources

  • Run two VSTL computers with the same project file

And now comes the magic:
From VSTL master send out MIDI#CC’s to slave VSTL to:

  • navigate or dial next song
  • PLAY / STOP

Surely it wont be a sample acurate sync but I dont’t think that is an issue for now
