You need a standalone host like minihost to run the vst from. If not,
dimension 1.5 already has a host, so if you instal it, you can just run the
executable from the shortcut on the desktop. Configure your MIDI input, and
your audio out, and you're good to go. Note that for best results he/she
should have a dedicated audio interface, like a small USB one or such, and
not use the laptop's built-in card.
HTH, D!J!X!

Subject: [ddots-l] Triggering Dimension Pro Via MIDI
Hey folks,
Quick question that I think I know the answer to: Is it possible to trigger
Dimension Pro sounds from an external MIDI controller, or even USB without
launching Sonar?
The deal is I have a keyboard player in my band who has a Nord, and although
the sounds it has are pretty cool, he has no other keyboard or module that
produces pads or cool synthy things like Dimension Pro or Rapture. I have
Sonar loaded on a desktop computer interfaced with an FW1884. What would I
need to put Sonar on his laptop and make it available for triggering those
sounds? By the way, he is sighted.
Thanks for the help in advance,
Jay Pilkington

I'm trying to figure out how I can do this in a live setting.
