Cubase VST comes with a number of VST Plug-in effects included. This chapter de-
scribes the included effects parameters. For general details about how to assign
and set up effects, see the chapter “Installing and using VST plug-ins” in the “Get-
ting into the Details” document.
Version 2.0 of the VST plug-in standard allows plug-ins to receive MIDI from the
host application (in this case, Cubase VST). Possible uses for this feature include
tempo-based delays, MIDI control of pitch-shifters and harmonizers, etc.
• MIDI Timing information is automatically provided to any VST 2.0 plug-in that
“requests it”.
About the “Earlier VST Plug-ins” Folder
Cubase VST 5.0 comes with a completely new set of effect plug-ins. To ensure back-
wards compability with Songs created using previous versions of Cubase, the pre-
vious standard set of VST plug-ins is included as well. These are located in the sub-
folder “Earlier VST PlugIns” on your effect menus. The parameters for these effects
are described in a separate document.
