Steinberg joins forces with Open Labs

Steinberg North America and Open Labs

“TAKE VST LIVE” CAMPAIGN

Buena Park, CA – January 19, 2012
Steinberg North America and Open Labs LLC are pleased to announce a live performance
solution that combines the power of the industry standard Steinberg VST Protocol (Virtual
Studio Technology) and Open Labs Music OS live performance software. Steinberg’s HALion
4 (VST Sampler and Sound Creation System), HALion Sonic (Premier VST Workstation) and
Yamaha Vintage Plug-in Collection are now easily accessible on any stage, leading the future of
VST development.

First launched by Steinberg in 1996, the VST Protocol creates a professional studio and
performance environment on any computer, allowing seamless integration of virtual effect
processors and instruments into the VST host application. All functions of a VST effect
processor or instrument are directly controllable and automatable, either with a mouse or with an
external hardware controller such as Steinberg’s CMC Series and CC121 USB Controllers. VST
also allows easy integration of external equipment, allowing you to put together a system tailor-made
to your needs.

Open Labs Music OS 3.0 or MOS is a music creation and live performance software designed
specifically to address the needs of both music creators and live performers. With over 7 years
of integrated touch screen experience, MOS was developed and optimized for touch screen use;
however, a touch screen is not required when installed on PC desktops and laptop
systems. Important to note, Open Labs will update Music OS to support the Mac platform in the
first half of 2012.
