So….what does this do, layman terms?

I'm all for free but don't want to bother if it not for me
It's for people who use DAW (digital audio workshops/ audio recorder software). It's basically a virtual guitar amplifier that you can use as a plugin for you recording software.
Don't get too excited. I went through the install and installs the app, informs you that the software you just installed will not work without the additional piece of software called iLok for managing the license (i.e. can revoke your software at any time if they see fit.) I get that it's free, but some folks might not like another piece of agent software gathering information and sending it somewhere.

In blunt terms, if you don't know what a VST is or does, you don't need this plugin.

Wikipedia page about VSTs: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vir...Technology

Basically, a VST effect plugin is used to modify audio signals to add effects when it is "plugged into" digital audio processing software on a computer.

For example, some VSTs can make your voice sound like a Robot, A child, etc. Others can remove background noise, or popping and crackling on recordings of vinyl records.

This particular VST modifies audio to resemble the sound of audio recorded through a vintage microphone pre-amplifier that will "color" and distort the sound the same way as if one was using that type of amplifier.

Edit: If you want to play around with VSTs, the freeware Audacity, supports VST plugins https://www.audacityteam.org/
