MicVST, a Windows tray app for VST-processing a microphone
A small Windows tray app that runs a USB mic through VST3 plugins and out as a system mic, built with Claude Code after other tools kept failing.

The full story
The maker wanted to run their USB ModMic through VST3 plugins before using it as the system microphone on Windows. VoiceMeeter did far more than needed, while OBS, EqualizerAPO and Elgato Wave Link all kept losing the mic signal after reboots or Windows updates.
So they used Claude Code to build MicVST, a small Windows tray app that takes the mic input, runs it through VST plugins and sends it out through the free VB-Cable so any app can use it as a mic. The portable .exe and source are on GitHub.
