not so easy for us either.
Iāve already mentioned some of them earlier in this thread. Many others have also been reported by other users and are still present from previous versions, as brought to my attention in this thread.
Iām not sure what this state of denial is about. Either the devs are ignoring these issues, or theyāre trying not to acknowledge them, both of which sound bad for the future of the software. Not knowing what the manual is missing or what critical bugs exist is a clear sign of obliviousness.
If you think reading user reports is a waste of time, then that says a lot about why the software is so bad. Iām not sure why everything is taken personally by the devs here. We care about the future of the software, and weāre trying to improve it, not attack anyone.
Well, it would have been better not to mention that at all. Should we even care? Youāre not working for free! You released a product and sold it to clients. Please make sure it works. Whether itās easy for you or not, as a client, is of no concern to me at all!
You can share all your wishes and suggestions with your management, how hard it is for you, and your meticulous clients are simply demanding the impossible from you, which is what weāve always demanded and will continue to do!
No, you donāt have to (as opposed to us). That was a human trying to express to another human what a Monday morning feels like after a full Sundaysā worth of work for this project, and then beeing rewarded with a thread like this. Sorry for that.
Here are some of the very annoying things that Iāve faced:
- fixed, as reported by Spork.
- and
- and
- acknowledged by Spork as well
- we need some repro for that - dto
- working on it, as promised
- and
- also acknowledged
- which editor and OS?
- as said, itās already at Apple for release
- see our online manual. Maybe some screenshots are still outdated, weāre working on improving, one by one, but not exactly a ācritcal bugā either.
None of these (except possibly for the āundoā case - maybe, we donāt know for sure what your problem is) are ācritical bugsā, some are already fixed, or are beeing worked on. We try to do our best to sort issues by severity and apprechiate if you can help us (and other users) with that.
Iām not sure why everything is taken personally by the devs here
That would be funny if it werenāt that sad, when a few rows up we need to read:
Apparently, there are people at the helm who know how to demand results from their subordinates, but hereā¦
Not a native English speaker, but that seems extremely offensive - but will wait until my understanding of this sentence is confirmed by a native English speaking member to mean what I fear it does?
Either the devs are ignoring these issues, or theyāre trying not to acknowledge them,
Just looked it up - just myself replied 7.3k times just in this forum. Add to that Sporksā, and youāre well over 15.000, plus help from more positive users. Donāt know of many other product forums with that much response directly from the devs, including weekly fixes and versions (next one to come up within the next hours)?
Many others have also been reported by other users
āmanyāā¦wellā¦at least, we react to all reports and help, and have helped thousands of times before. Thankfully, there are way more positive entries and reports useful for new users, see feedback.
Soā¦did not mean to offend anyone, pls letās focus on facts and try to spend our precious time on prioritizing tasks to be done to make it even better ![]()
⦠and here we go. Iām finally happy to be able to tell you more. Read more here:
Now, letās get back to the music.
Weāre doing our best to keep improving VST Live ā step by step, getting better and better.
Have a nice evening, and thank you all for your feedback. Letās stay positive!

Iām not going to engage further in arguments and will only focus on feedback.
Iām not sure whether you intended to fix the issues listed in this thread in version 3.0.15, but none of them were fixed. In fact, the update made things worse. When I import a WAV file with a different sample rate than the project, the file doesnāt play, then VST Live stops responding and crashes. VST Live Mods is also still not working after the update to version 1.5.1 and shows as offline all the time.
I guess Iāll move on for now and maybe come back when the software is more mature.
That being said, huge respect to the founder of Steinberg @musicullum, and I hope VST Live becomes the next āCubaseā soon.
Agree, still not working,
Why cant the mods app have the same controls as the program?
i.e Chord font Size, Lyric font size, cursor location,
Plus some still do not loadā¦
This is a main selling point for you guys, im sure.
Why cant the mods app have the same controls as the program?
i.e Chord font Size, Lyric font size,
Because each remote user might want a different chord/lyric font size.
But I think we mentioned this before: first we want to make sure syncing of lyrics, chords and setlist works properly. Once thatās confirmed, we can start adding more features (colors, track selection, ā¦).
cursor location,
What do you mean by that?
See you,
Michael
Hi @YamenFahham
please donāt give up.
Iām not sure whether you intended to fix the issues listed in this thread in version 3.0.15, but none of them were fixed.
Weāre unfortunately not that fast. We need to analyze the problem (and the code) first, then it goes into a new pre-release. Usually we come back to the thread to confirm itās fixed ā or ask for more info if we still need details.
In fact, the update made things worse. When I import a WAV file with a different sample rate than the project, the file doesnāt play, then VST Live stops responding and crashes.
Is this the same import issue you mentioned before? If yes, could you link me to the original thread/post?
VST Live Mods is also still not working after the update to version 1.5.1 and shows as offline all the time.
We can see from @tunecreatorsā screenshots that it works on some setups ā but clearly not on yours, and Iām sorry youāre still blocked. Iām here to help, but Iāll need a bit more information:
- Is VST Live running on Windows or macOS?
- iOS: In Settings ā VST Live MODS, is Local Network enabled?
- Are you on the same Wi-Fi network (no guest network / VPN)?
- Any firewall/security software that could block local network traffic?
Michael.

No, thatās a new bug. It didnāt crash in the previous version, it only introduced crackles in the audio.
We can see from @tunecreatorsā screenshots that it works on some setups
For me, it works intermittently when I connect the iPad directly to the laptopās hotspot, but it never stays online and keeps alternating between online and offline. However, when both devices are connected to the same Wi-Fi network, it always shows as offline. Whatās strange is that even when it shows as offline, it sometimes syncs for a few seconds and then stops, VST Live also recognises that a peer is connected.
- Is VST Live running on Windows or macOS?
Windows.
- iOS: In Settings ā VST Live MODS, is Local Network enabled?
Yes.
- Are you on the same Wi-Fi network (no guest network / VPN)?
Yes.
- Any firewall/security software that could block local network traffic?
Firewall and security are completely disabled.
I asked why cant there be the same controls as the program, chord size lyrics sizeā¦ā¦.and the answer is, ābecause different users might want different sizesā?!!
How?? without the controls?
There is no option for different users either to select what lyric or chord track they may want to view.
I wasnt sending you the pcture to say it was working, itwas to see the difference. plus it only works on the odd song
When I import a WAV file with a different sample rate than the project, the file doesnāt play, then VST Live stops responding and crashes
Thatās the reason we provide a new version.
All of those problems (crash or freeze when starting or importing) are the result of a stupid bug that crawled in when we tried to improve sample rate conversion because of your report, once more we are very sorry for that and will provide a fix very soon.
I asked why cant there be the same controls as the program, chord size lyrics sizeā¦ā¦.and the answer is, ābecause different users might want different sizesā?!!
You misunderstood. We want to allow font etc to be set up in the Mods app, so that everybody can adjust to their taste.

Thatās the plan. wonders take a bit longer ![]()
because of your report
I guess I shouldāve never reported it then lol. Sorry everyone ![]()
will provide a fix very soon
Thank you!
You know @YamenFahham as on-the-fly-samplerate conversion is already implemented - if the on-the-fly sample rate conversion is micro-crackling you then it good to everyone if reported. A few weeks ago VSTLive3 saved the serious situation with the built in on-the-fly sample rate conversion
(and everyone was blinking :D)
Sure, I was just messing around. I would never leave a bug unreported. My track record speaks for itself ![]()
Thats what Im asking, you misunderstand, im afraid
