Unassigned VST Sound Containers

When you add presets to your library that use samples referring to other VST Sound containers, these containers are added to the Unassigned VST Sound list as required VST Sound containers.

This allows you to change the structure of your library if you do not want to reference external content. To make your library accessible to a maximum of users, avoid dependencies to other VST Sound containers. If you use presets with dependencies to other VST Sound containers, be sure to inform potential customers/users of your library about these requirements, especially if your library is not accessible for free.

To remove dependencies, you can either modify or remove the corresponding presets.

Note

  • HSB containers are not supported as external dependencies.

  • If you build a library for HALion Sonic, for example, external dependencies to HALion Sonic factory VST Sound containers are resolved automatically and are not mentioned in the Unassigned VST Sound list, because these containers are also installed on the computer of the end users.
