Re: Issues with Mobius and SampleTank on windows 8



Bit of a tangent, but the advice here is incomplete. It's not simply a matter of where or not you trust the source, but whether you trust the source to write code that can't be exploited by 'bad guys' for nefarious purposes on your machine. Not that malware authors generally target vst hosts...

The only "bad" thing that might happen is if the program is malicious it

then you don't need to worry about this.  You certainly don't have to
worry about Mobius, SampleTank, or any of the commercial hosts.
