A major addition is real-time video processing through Video Director. The number of live video sources is limited only by the host system's resources. Integration with the popular OBS software further improves live video handling, allowing VST Live to perform tasks such as programmed video source switching. A new monitor mixer supports stage and in-ear monitor mixes. Independent chord and lyric tracks allow separate displays to be configured for different performers.

The new version improves lighting control, with DMX controls available directly on the mixer page and separate intensity, mute and solo faders. Other additions include input channels displayed in the mixer; improved in-app help and multilingual support; reuse of module instances across a project without loading them for every song; automation for live broadcasts and streaming content; Steinberg Flux and Trip VST synthesizers; and the Groove Agent SE drum plug-in.
