What is a .VITAL file?

A .VITAL file is a type of file that stores settings for a software program called Vital. Vital is a special kind of music software known as a spectral warping wavetable synthesizer. This means it can create a wide range of sounds, from instruments like pianos and guitars to completely unique sounds, by manipulating digital waveforms in complex ways.

The information inside a .VITAL file is written in a format called XML, which is a way of organizing data that computers can understand. This data tells the Vital program how to adjust its settings to recreate specific sounds or styles of music. Think of it like a recipe that tells Vital exactly what to do to sound like a violin, a drum, or even sounds that don't exist in the real world.

To use a .VITAL file, you usually need to have it installed into the Vital program. Often, these .VITAL files come packaged inside another file called a .VITALBANK file, which is like a collection of many .VITAL files grouped together. Once installed, you can select these presets within Vital to instantly change its settings and sound.

If you want to open a .VITAL file, you need to use the Vital program. The description mentions "Vital+" multiple times, but it's essentially referring to the same Vital program. There aren't different versions like Vital or Vital+ mentioned for opening these files; it's just Vital, the synthesizer software, that you need.

In summary, a .VITAL file is a preset file for the Vital synthesizer software, containing detailed instructions on how the software should operate to produce certain sounds. You open these files by using the Vital program, which reads the .VITAL file and adjusts its settings according to the instructions contained within.
