Helllllo all,
Does anyone know if Cubase 4 supports old VST Waves plug-ins?
I read in a review that Cubase4 does not support directX plug-ins and that it
might not recognize Waves plug-ins one already owns.
I cannot find any other information to confirm this than an article in SOS:
"After verifying that the bundled plug-ins worked, I moved the entire contents
of my SX3 plug-in folder to the top level of the Steinberg directory and
reloaded Cubase 4 to see what the damage was. The vast majority of plug-ins
were recognised, including the older SX3 bundled effects, and all Native
Instruments synths and effects, but unfortunately, some of the big guns were
among the casualties. "
HERE:
"Out of the entire Diamond Bundle, the only Waves plug-in that Cubase 4 would
recognise was L3; and Halion Symphonic Orchestra went missing for a while
before I experimented with moving the DLL out of its own folder and into the
top level of the Vstplugins folder. A couple of my favourite processors were
also lost, including Eliosound's Air EQ. (I suspect the Waves problem is
something to do with their copy protection, since the Diamond Bundle stopped
working in SX3 as well.) On plug-ins that did work, I had occasional problems
with parameters being wrongly recalled when presets or Projects were loaded.
Oh yeah, and all pre-VST3 plug-ins now appear under an extra menu level
called 'Earlier VST Plug-ins' in the plug-in list, which is a nuisance."
But what is interresting is that he says:
"I suspect the Waves problem is something to do with their copy protection,
since the Diamond Bundle stopped working in SX3 as well.)"
Problem is that I have CubaseSX3 and the Diamond Bundle of Waves works
A+++....?
Anyone heard or read anything regarding the issue. Not that Waves plug-ins
are indispensable...but I like a couple of them.
Thank you
