The Best 5 Free Vital VST Skins for 2025 (Best of the Rest)
Here are five of the best free Vital skins you can download right now in 2025. Each one brings something unique to the table, whether it’s quirky charm, minimal clarity, or just plain style.
Blinding Light by QB!K
Still one of my favourite free skins of all time, Blinding Light isn’t afraid of bright colours and it is the raddest one out there QB!K put a lot of attention into detail, especially the knobs, which are stylish and flat.
- Bright, energetic aesthetic
- Flat styling, yet somehow still totally rad
- Doesn’t use the newest theme features, but still works great. It’s a classic.
Orange by OuterLives
Minimal, sharp, and inspired by the UI of Arturia Pigments, Orange is a clean and focused skin that looks great and has a lovely flat look to it.
- Simple, high-readability layout
- Orange + charcoal colour scheme
- Available with many other skins, in a OneDrive Folder
Pigments Dark by temporalRift
A brilliant recreation of the Pigments interface, Pigments Dark is a great choice if you’re already familiar with Arturia’s plugin and want familiarity. Though the layout isn’t as crazy as pigments.
- Clean, familiar colouring for pigments users
- Subtle colour tones
- Maintains practicality, but still manages to look gorgeous
Download this theme from Gumroad (you might even want to consider donating as it’s a really nice theme and everybody needs beer money)
Retro Sunset also by temporalRift
This is pure synthwave nostalgia. Retro Sunset combines a warm colour gradient with that familiar 80s-style grid and aesthetic. It’s one of the most visually creative skins I’ve seen.
- Strong vaporwave/synthwave aesthetic
- Stylish colourful look
- Great for Synthwave Livestreams
Download from Gumroad (you can pay what you want, but if you like it, consider donating, creators need beer tokens)
Atom One Dark by Unfold
This one is really nice, I’m not a Microsoft fan, but when Microsoft get something right, they really get it right, this one is based on dark mode of visual studio code. I like the styling of vial studio code, I like visual studio code, what’s not to like about this vital skin.
Minimal flat skin that is incredibly practical. Stylish colouring and simple layout, great for late night vital sessions, or any time of day really.
Will match your visual studio code desktop, I have no idea why you’d need it to, but I love it none the less.
You can download this one from his github page, rather fitting, all considered
