Most people think of VSTs as virtual synthesizers or reverb units. But the VST standard (Virtual Studio Technology) includes VST Effects (VSTFx). These are processors: compressors, limiters, reverbs, and crucially, equalizers.

While Equalizer APO has excellent built-in filters (Parametric EQ, Preamp, Copy, Delay), VST plugins offer capabilities that native APO cannot match:
