Ok i just got my Kronos for 3months... and i didn't connect to pc or else

now i want to move on for more

I crawl a lot of forum... but still not clear vst those thing...

Hmm i found one vst called omnispehere and i want to use it with my kronos

But looks like vst could'nt just run itself.. i do need something called "DAW"
to run my vst ? is that true ?

if so what's a good and simple daw for new guy like me

You not only need a DAW, you also need a computer to run it. Kronos will not run VSTs or DAWs! I suggest Reaper as a very affordable, but capable DAW.

and then ican run omnisphere with reaper ?

Yeah.

I thought most vsts came with a standalone mode these days. That doesn't go for Omnisphere then?

No, the Spectrasonics plugins don't offer a standalone mode. But if the OP is just looking to run plugins and not use a DAW for recording, then they should also look-up MainStage if they get a Mac, or on the PC, look up Cantabile or Brainspawn Forte all of which are very capable VST plugin hosts designed for running VST instruments in standalone mode along with various other live performance related features.

Thank you for that info DaveB
