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 2102.

OPEN LABS ANNOUNCES MUSIC OS™ 3.0
The first easy-to-use music creation and live performance software designed specifically for
touch screen use.
Austin, TX. - November 15, 2011 - Open Labs, LLC.
(openlabs.com), the
industry leader and pioneer for nearly a decade in all-in-one music
production workstations, is proud to expand its product line by
introducing, Music OS™ 3.0. Music OS 3.0 or MOS (moss)
is the world’s first 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 purposely 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
be releasing an Apple OS X supported platform in early 2012.
Simply
stated, MOS makes music creation and live performance easy. With
streamlined recording and live performance features, MOS
allows music innovators to create, record and perform their ideas
quickly and seamlessly. MOS was engineered to work in conjunction with
traditional D.A.W. programs; leveraging existing studio investments and
adding strong value, features and capabilities
in areas where most musicians need it – the creative and live
performance process. One can think of MOS as a professional ‘scratch
pad’ when creating and performing music. MOS emphasizes ease-of-use,
stability and power all at an affordable introductory price
of $299/USD.
As
most musicians already know, music production and performance has come a
long way over the last 10 years, but the complexity
of traditional hardware and software (as advanced and affordable as it
has become) can sometimes work against its creators and performing
artists. Scott Spock, mega producer and advocate of MOS, sums it up
best, “Sometimes it takes so much time to get my studio
set up that I lose the creative ideas in my head before I can get them
recorded.” Most musicians, producers and performers can relate to this
scenario; this is exactly why Open Labs created MOS.
With
MOS, a producer is just two clicks away (or touches via a touch screen)
from recording or performing music live. MOS offers
unique features, such as Live Controls™, allowing users to create
customizable controls that can latch to any music software, VST, and
hardware device. Essentially, what this means is that MOS can transform
any D.A.W. into a live instrument program with touch
screen friendly controls. Additionally, MOS allows users to import /
export their musical ideas into traditional D.A.W.’s for further
editing, mixing and mastering. If users already have a completed
project and would like to perform with their D.A.W. tracks
live on stage using MOS (i.e. using prerecorded backing tracks), all
they have to do is export / import their tracks into MOS for greater
performance, touch screen friendly control and stability.
MOS
was fundamentally created for musicians by musicians with direct input
and feedback from the world’s greatest producers, engineers
and performers. In turn, Open Labs understands the creative process,
its users and its many challenges that naturally come when creating and
performing music live. Therefore, after several years of innovation and
design, feedback and input, Open Labs is thrilled
to release Music OS 3.0 to the world and believes it will unleash an
entirely new element in music creation and live performance.
Bottom
line, whether you’re a professional studio producer, performer or just
someone with a melody they can't get out of their
head, MOS is the creative platform you will need to excel on your next
musical journey. For a free trial or to purchase Music OS 3.0 via
download, please visit: www.openlabs.com.
Dream big with MOS and make the studio your stage and the stage your studio!
