    How did KVR start?

    Ben Turl started KVR Audio in February 2000 as something to do to pass the time, and to teach himself this web design malarkey;) His initial plan was to upload a few banks of patches for the open-format Virtual Studio Technology - (VST), Neon, Atom, er, LM-4, the SC plugs and maybe add a few more every now and then...

    However, it wasn't long before it became glaringly obvious that there were loads of other software addicts hungry for news about the latest instruments so he started reporting information about new releases and updates. The approach proved popular, and KVR expanded, adding support for Apple's Audio Units (AU) and Avid's current AAX protocols and Propellerhead ReWire and all kinds of music recording and performance software including DAWs, mobile apps as they have become more prominent.

    KVR has since evolved, into a thriving community with user reviews, tutorials, friendly and lively forums, with a lot of developer interaction, and monthly song contests in the Music Café.

    Last, but by no means least, KVR is proud to host official support forums for many leading developers - please take a look at the forum index.

    Who is KVR?:

    • Ben Turl - Founder and Cranky Brit.
    • Chris Halaby - CEO, Manager of Advertising and Content.
    • Dan Brown - Business Development and alternative perspectives on everything.
    • Nate Raubenheimer - Advertising Sales and other cool stuff.
    • KVR has too many great moderators to list them all.
    Where is KVR?

    KVRAudio, Inc.
    PO Box 620323
    Woodside, CA 94062.

    What does KVR mean?

    Nothing, KVR once meant something but we have forgotten what that was. Take note boys and girls, always choose a good, sensible name for any new projects you start ;)

    KVR isn't a place for:

    • Obtaining or discussing warez, cracks, porn, politics, etc.
    • Flames/Stupid arguments.
    • Elite-ness/Egos/One-upmanship/Penis comparison/Parent fights/etc.
    • Format wars (Please...) /Host wars (Come on, try now...) /Platform wars (Leave it Darren, it's not worth it...).
    • Trolling. Respect one another and they will respect you.
    We hope you enjoy your stay :)
