These may or may not be useful in other hosts, but allow you to use energyXT2 more effectively.
EnergyXT 2.5 Features: Advanced MIDI and audio sequencer. Folder tracks for grouping and saving screen space. Envelope tracks for sample accurate automation of any VST param and mixer. Cool features like multi out VST freeze, ghost clips and marker tracks for fast arranging, navigation and zooming. I didn’t realise people weren’t aware energyXT could be used as a modular routing VST inside of Podium! Oh yes, it certainly can, and it works fine. I never went to 2.x due to. 2.x has a VST too, as has been pointed out, but it’s a separate download. EnergyXT by XT Software is a Virtual Instrument Audio Plugin and an Audio Plugin Host and a Mobile Audio App for macOS, Windows, Linux and iOS. It functions as a VST Plugin. It can host VST Plugins.

The setup dialog box will appear. Click on the 'Browser' tab, then click on the arrows to locate the Plugins section.
Locating the VST plugins folder
Click the 'Add' button. This will open a dialog box where you can select a folder. On Windows, VST plugins usually reside under C:Program FilesVstPlugins or C:Program FilesSteinbergVstPlugins.
When you have located the folder, click OK, then exit the Setup dialog.
Adding VST instruments
There are several ways of adding VST instruments to your XT project. One method is to drag the VST instrument from the browser into the track list. This will automatically create a new track with the instrument you selected.
Another method is to use the quick-add button, and select the instrument you want from the drop-down menu. In the following image example: drag and drop the Magnus Choir VSTi:
Adding VST effects
If you want to add a VST insert or send effect, use the + button next to the 'Inserts' or 'Sends' section and choose the desired VST effect from the dropdown menu. Note that VST instruments can not be used as insert or send effects.
