You can still use the audio driver without the vst plug in. So i have an ARMKII and DT so i can break out the ARmkii into individual tracks in my DAW and use the DT plugin for the individual DT tracks…and do some editing of the DT on pc if it helps work flow…but not the ARMKII…i just can access the audio streams…which in itself is amazing. There is still along way to go however.
But guys be patient. It wont revolutionize your music making trust me. The boxes are just as useful and just as awesome when they stand alone. Although im testing i unplug the USB 70% of the time and get back to using the boxes far far away from any computer… still smiling. Still happy…being able to stem out tracks hasnt ment that my music output has increased or my production ability has jumped forward. Try not to build your expectations of OB to the point of it never satisfying your imaginations. Its the same box at the end of the day. With the same capabilities and limits.
