WHAT IT IS?
#MonsterPianoVST is a Free Piano VST with various Preset, including Grand Piano, Baby Grand, and Upright Piano.
It covers multi-tone characters, suitable for Pop to Rock, Jazz, Classical, and everything in between.
The size of the sampling is small but still fun to play (I hope so).
The great thing about this VST is that this is never complete. This VST gets a new expansion (preset) sound continuously every now and then so stay tuned for more!

SPECIAL NOTES FOR MAC USER
Apple / Mac now have tightened their security on their OS. So my VST sometimes get a red flag or identified as a virus or malware or Mac marked my plugin as damaged.
If you need to believe me, please check my personal web here: www.AgusHardiman.com and www.ArtSonica.com, I’m a music producer and Steinberg Certified Trainer and making FREE VSTs are my passion.
So I’m legit and I HAVE NO INTENTION TO SPREAD VIRUSES OR MALWARES!
For a software or plugin to be notarized (=not flag as danger software or viruses or malware), I have to pay Apple some amount of money yearly. And right now, I’m not doing this (paying them).
So the solution is to use the terminal trick explained here:
Or watch this :
And my friend Agung Putranto has been kind enough to share what he did to make Monster Guitar shows up in his Logic Pro 10.7.1 on Monterey OS (This trick maybe work on earlier Logic Pro version and on BigSur OS too) :
Or read these articles :
- Resolving the Mac-only error: “The file is damaged and should be moved to the trash.”
- How to Install Software from Unsigned Developers on a Mac
- And googling about it (some famous plugin developer experience this too).

Hi I just want to say thank you for your free plugins. I think they are outstanding. They are better than most paid-for plugins.
Thanks again
Len
Wow thanks for your kind words 🙏🏻

I had planned to restrict my current virtual piano’s to the 2 very good acoustic piano’s (XLN Studio Grand; Soundpaint Free Grand Piano). But this MonsterPiano clealry has a very distinct sound of its own, that will inevitably come in handy for very specific applications. So, especially since it is free (as a retired amateur no chance I can afford to buy moer stuff…) I will certainly download it.
Thanks a lot for making this available!
Cool ! What about now, have you try it ?

Hey, I love the plugin sounds and really wanna download them on my Mac but the links given here aren’t working. They don’t load for a lot of time and then just show an error while loading the pages. If the links could be fixed it’d be great
Hi, if you see on the download link, as of today there are a 1000+ downloads for Mac and it works (only you that has problems, others are making music with this). The proof is that you can check Instagram of @monsterdawdotcom of Facebook, and see users are making music with this on Mac.
Btw I made all VSTs in my Mac and always tested them with Cubase Pro 11, Studio One Pro 5, and Logic Pro X. Here’s the video of my computer that shows that Monster Piano work in Mac: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DOPG0mygnlk
So please watch and follow all of the videos on SPECIAL NOTES FOR MAC USERS since others can use this on Mac without problem 🙏🏻
Hi,
Both of the methods above relate to the installation of application files (in which case they may work), whereas Monster Piano is a plug-in file, so unfortunately these methods do not work with it.
Having carefully tried both methods listed above (using Logic X on Catalina) I discovered that neither of them works, for plugins, which a pity because Monster Piano sounds good in the demo.
Can anyone offer another way to get it working in Logic X in Catalina or later?
Hi, I made this VST (and all of the VSTs on this site) on my Mac Catalina and always tested it on Cubase Pro, Studio One Pro, and Logic Pro. Here’s a video of my computer (it shows that Monster Piano works on Catalina & Logic Pro 10) 😬
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DOPG0mygnlk
And many people still use Cataline and works in Logic Pro X
So I think the problem is not the installation files (as shown by above video). Please follow all the videos in the SPECIAL NOTES FOR MAC USERS section above 🙏🏻
great
Please spread this to your friends 🙏🏻
