Are there ANY plugins for lmms that can import vst3 files? From a bit of looking around I haven't seen anyone else who hasn't just been blown off about vst3 file support and adding it to lmms- Especially with them being from 2018 or so. No VST support for macOS; The mixer setup might be too limited for some. No audio recording option; If you’re new to music production, LMMS is one of the better free DAW options to dip your toes in, explore, and see what works best for you. It has enough functionality for beginners interested in electronic music production.

LMMS Wiki has been archived and it is now read-only. If you are interested in writing documentation or tutorials for LMMS, please move to https://docs.lmms.io/user-manual/.

Working with VSTs and VSTi Plugins

VST and VSTi are industry standard plugin formats supported in most digital audio workstations. A VST can be anything from a tiny sound effect (similar to LADSPA) to an advanced instrument. VST can be both expensive and free.

Luckily, these powerful plugins work in LMMS 99% of the time. Because most VSTs are written to be Windows compatible, VSTs tend to work better on Windows LMMS installations. Linux LMMS installations require Wine installed before these plugins can be used. If your computer does not already have Wine getting it is usually as simple as searching for the package 'Wine' and installing it from the package manager.

Opening a VST in LMMS takes just three steps:

Add the Vestige instrument from the toolbar on the left
Browse to the VST or VSTi plugin from the instrument plugin window. Only .dll and .exe formats are supported.
Wait for the VST to load. Depending on how large or complex the plugin is, this may take a while. On slower machines or when loading larger plugins, LMMS may freeze. Just be patient!

You can also browse for a specific VST dll in the Sidebars file-browser(s) My-Home or My-computer.Here you simply browse for the dll of your choice, and then just drag it into either song-editor, or Beat&Bass-editor. Again -Be patient, and let the VST load to 100%, before you continue with your project.

A list of tested VSTs can be found on the Tested VSTs page. In this section, you can find several recommended VSTs that are available for free. If you have found a VST that works well with LMMS, you can aid the community greatly by adding it to the list or making a thread or the forum.

How to use VeSTige Instrument Presets

For this section, download and install the VST Synth1. You can find Synth1 here.When downloading other VSTs, you should try to download them from their official sites. However in useful resources you can find several safe sites dedicated to hosting VSTs for download.

So why Synth1? Synth1 is our proof-of-concept-VST. If you find a VST that refuses to work in LMMS, yet Synth1 works, LMMS will not be able to handle that particular VST.

When you download VSTs, unpack them in the folder Documents| LMMS| Samples in your LMMS installation. This is an oddity, but this folder serialize subfolders, so that is the best for VSTs, that can have dependencies, like artwork, and banks.

In Synth1's case, it will need to be installed. This is not always the case with VSTs, but for the few that ask for you to specify the installation folder, be sure to always use the same one. It is also recommended that you use a subfolder structure for the various VSTs. This is especially important for VSTs that have their own banks and/or multiple files they require to run. How many files end up in the folder depend on how advanced the VST happens to be, but there will always be at least a .DLL file. This .DLL is the actual plugin.

So.. lets load one instance of Synth1. Normally you will load VSTs into already open projects, and it is important that you always save before loading VSTs. I offer this warning because depending on how big the VST is, it runs the potential of crashing LMMS.

In LMMS, click on the Instrument plugins button on the left sidebar. This should open up a list of built in instruments. Loading from this list opens the instrument in its default state - something that is very important for successfully opening VSTs in LMMS.
Locate VeSTige in the list and drag it into your project.
Open the instrument GUI (eg. click on the instrument in the song-editor).
To the right of the text 'No VST Plugin loaded' there is a folder symbol.
Click on this symbol.
Browse to the VST folder where your VST is located.
Click on the DLL and wait for LMMS to load the VST.

When it loads, The VSTs GUI will open. Be careful when opening and closing VST GUIs. This action has a tendency to freeze LMMS, so use the 'Show/Hide' button whenever you need to hide the GUI.

If you successfully loaded Synth1, you should now be able use it in your project! You can also automate the dials and sliders in your VSTs.Directly below the folder icon there is a wrench-icon. Clicking on it will show the interface for the VST's controllers. You can CTRL+drag any of these dials into an automation-track or connect them to a controller, such as an LFO.

The Synth1 LMMS dial array. For instance, filter-amount is the second dial in the third row

LMMS can save and load VST presets! Lets take a look at how:

Name the instrument.
1. Quite often this leads to 'names' like Thunder-bolt, Imo, that is a bad 'name'. Try to express what the instrument actually is or can! -So a name like RoughScratchBass will be much more useful, than 'Thunder-bolt'.
In the LMMS VeSTige instrument window, click the save icon.
In the save window that opens, create a new folder called 'VeSTige' in the 'presets' folder, located in your LMMS installation. You can then make subfolders for specific VSTs if you'd like. This keeps things tidy and structured, but is completely optional.

Loading saved VST presets is just as easy as saving them:

Remember to always save the project first!
Load a new VeSTige-plugin into the project, from sidebar.
Open the VeSTige GUI. It should open to the default GUI. Having the instrument GUI open shows that it is the 'Active Instrument'.
The VST preset will be wherever you saved it. If you saved it in the 'lmmspresetsVeSTige' folder you should be able to access it from the left sidebar.
Right-clicking the preset will open a menu, choose 'Send to Active Instrument Track'
Wait for it to load.

If it loaded correctly, you will now be able to use the preset in your project!
