Ok, so I could not resist it any longer and decided to try Softube Modular (going for $ 37.80 at pugindiscounts.com). It actually seemed to work fine in Reason 10, until I picked up the additional 4ms Spectral Multiband Resonator, and everything turned into a laggy hell.
But then I figured I could always run it in standalone mode, but it turns out that Softube have not provided us with that option. Strange, for a vst so cpu unfriendly.
Then I tought, there must be a way to host a VST outside your daw and I did some googling and found that there is. I downloaded something called Savihost that I found a link to in this article:
https://www.soundonsound.com/sound-advi .. ithout-daw
Modular works like a charm now - no lag - and I can even record wavs from the host, but the program is pretty old and seems to have been out of development for at least 5 years.
Does anyone have suggestions for a better, newer, more up to date VST host for windows 10?
What are the best ones, free or to pay for?
Here you can find some VSTHost add-ons that have been created by ToyleY.
VSTHost Slavery Suite
It was just a little question in a forum.. 'Is there a way to route the output of vsthost to Kristal Audio engine? And without latency?' that triggered the addition of a slave mode to VSTHost. And since I got a rather bad taste of humor, it got the above title.
When started with the parameter /slave, VSTHost goes into Slave Mode and waits for a Master to control it. The first (and currently only) master is a VST(i) plugin that can be embedded into any VST Host program (even another instance of VSTHost), called Legree. It comes as an effect and as a VSTi, since there are hosts that accept only effects, hosts that only accept VSTis, and of course hosts that accept both.
You can download Legree here (.zip file, 209K).
Current version: 1.07
Comes in 32- and 64-bit versions

Open Source Variant
Originally, I made VSTHost available including the complete source code. Since I had to find out that (parts of) it made their way into other people's programs, and that without even mentioning my contribution, the open source variant has been frozen. I continue to add bug fixes to the existing code base, but new features won't make their way into it any more. Starting with V1.16k, this program is released under the terms of the GNU Lesser GPL.
Anyway - the important part of the program is an implementation of a VST host in form of 2 classes:
CVSTHost
This implements the audio callback needed by an effect plugin as a neatly encapsulated VST host class. This is practically platform-independent code. Oberheim xpander vst free. The few platform-specific things are encapsulated in..
Linux Free Vst Hosting
CEffect
This encapsulates a VST effect, as loaded by the VST host. This class isn't fully complete - since I don't have a Mac, I've only included the Windows code. If a kind MacIntosh programmer could fill out the few Mac-specific sections and send it to me it would be great and, of course, publicized here!
