chat host

Host application is a command prompt Windows utility ported from FreeBSD Host utility.

Host looks for information about Internet hosts. It gets this information from a set of interconnected servers that are spread across the world.

By default, it simply converts between host names and Internet addresses.
However, with the [-d] or [-a] options, it can be used to find all of the information about this host that is maintained by the domain server (A, MX, NS records, TTL).

The arguments can be either host names or host numbers. The program first attempts to interpret them as host numbers. If this fails, it will treat them as host names.

A host number consists of IPv4 dotted decimal quad (127.0.0.1). A host name consists of names separated by dots, e.g. www.itsamples.com.

Host is a complete and powerful command-line based DNS query and testing tool. The project has many of the same basic features as other similar tools such as nslookup and dig, but it has more extensive testing and test automation features. Host also has a much more standard (i.e. Unix-based) command-line user interface.

Defective Records Software proudly introduces VSTi Host, the brand new version of the original Macintosh application that allows VST instrument and effect plugins to be used outside of larger host applications (like Cubase, Logic, etc.). It also allows for sequencers that may not have native support for VST plugins and/or instruments (like ProTools, Vision, Digital Performer, and Metro for example) to use them, as long as the sequencer supports OMS.

VSTi Host is perfect if you have an extra Mac that youd like to put to use as a virtual synth and/or effects unit, or if your sequencer of choice doesnt support the VST plugins youd like to use. Previous versions of this software have garnered excellent mentions in Electronic Musician, Sound on Sound (UK), and Recording magazines, as well as in numerous online resources.
