STANDALONE 2.0 — featuring Keys Mode
Plugin host for guitarists and now -> keyboard players

STANDALONE is a lightweight AU plugin host for Mac, built for musicians who want to run their amp sims, instrument plugins, and effects without opening a DAW. Version 2.0 is the biggest update yet - headlined by Keys Mode, which brings software instrument support into STANDALONE. Plug in a controller, load your favorite instrument plugins, and play - no DAW required.

This release also adds multi-output routing, stereo input support, and preset linking, so guitarists and keyboard players alike get the same fast, focused workflow.

Key features:

• New in 2.0 - KEYS MODE: host your favorite software instrument.
• New in 2.0 - Multi-output routing: send your signal to multiple outputs.
• Stereo input support.
• Preset linking across plugins.
• Built-in recorder.
• Looper.
• Practice Mode with real-time time-stretching - slow down songs without changing pitch.
• Scores and Charts viewer - keep tabs and charts open alongside your plugins.
• Chromatic tuner and metronome.
• Global keyboard shortcuts for hands-free control.
• Low CPU footprint.

Whether you're a guitarist chasing tones through amp sims or a keyboard player triggering virtual instruments, STANDALONE gives you a focused, purpose-built environment for practicing and recording — not a full DAW session.
