Description

The Choir by NST

NST Choir (often referred to as NST Vocal) is a free, simple choir/choral virtual instrument plugin created by bigcat Instruments, designed to give producers and composers easy access to basic vocal textures without needing high-end commercial libraries.
It’s a sample-based choral instrument rather than a full-featured orchestral choir library, and it includes a set of choral patches split across different vocal ranges so you can add choir harmonies or background vocal pads to your projects.
Because it’s lightweight and compatible with common plugin formats, it’s a popular choice for simple choir needs when budget is a concern or you want quick inspiration without deep scripting.
Quick sketching with choral sounds when a full choir library isn’t required.
Background choir pads, ambient textures, or chordal choir layers.
Budget-friendly or free projects where you want choir elements without cost.

Specs:

• Sampled choral library with natural choir sounds.
• 30 total choral patches grouped by vocal range.
• Five instrument groups: Full choir, High, Mid, Low, and additional range splits.
• ADSR controls (Attack, Decay, Sustain, Release) for shaping dynamics.
• Panning and built-in reverb for basic spatial and ambience control.
• Simple interface, easy to play and experiment with.
• Lightweight install with relatively small file size (~126–166 MB).

Formats:

• VST (32-bit & 64-bit) for Windows hosts.
• VST & Audio Unit (AU) for macOS hosts.
• Windows: 32-bit & 64-bit (requires a DAW that supports VST).
• macOS: AU/VST compatible hosts.
• Typical modern DAW-capable system; no special requirements beyond your DAW’s own specs.
• Doesn’t require Kontakt or advanced players loads directly as a VST/AU instrument in your DAW.
• Designed for basic choir sounds more limited than paid libraries in realism and dynamic control.
