[RWP] Some questions

[Indigo]

A VST plugIn is a small program with presets in it.
Usually its presets only play within the plugIn.
Presets could be instruments, like guitar, trumpet, synthesizer sounds, 
bass, whatever.
A VST plugIn will not run standAlone.
It needs a host.
Sonar, cubase, Reaper are hosts for VST plugIns.
