Steinberg Cubase 10 VST / VST3 Plugins. Cubase is one of the most powerful music creation software packages in the world. With its unrivaled range of flexible tools, you can create any kind of music quickly and intuitively. I have been using Cubase since before VST was around. I run it on a PC (Intel Xeon, 16GB, liquid cooled, Win 7 64-bit) and it runs as smoothly and flawlessly as I need. No application is bug free, but Steinberg releases regular patches, and also gives us a decent upgrade every year or so. The Hyphenate does a step by step tutorial on how to install VST effects and plugins into Cubase 10 and Cubase 9. Whether it's Cubase Pro, Elements, or Artis.

A plug-in is a piece of software that adds a specific functionality to Cubase. The audio effects and instruments that are used in Cubase are VST plug-ins.

VST effect or VST instrument plug-ins normally have their own installation application. Read the documentation or readme files before installing new plug-ins.

When you scan for newly installed plug-ins or relaunch Cubase, the new plug-ins are shown on the VST effect or VST instrument selectors, respectively.

Cubase comes with a number of effect plug-ins included. These effects and their parameters are described in the separate document “Plug-in Reference”.

VST / VST3 plug-ins locations on Windows x86 and x64

The following chart includes common VST / VST3 paths. Depending on your DAW/VST host program, these folders are the default VST2 / VST3 x64 folders for example in Cubase and Nuendo:

ü Relocating plug-ins: if you really need to change the installation path of a VST /VST3 plug-in, also remember that your DAW / host application must know the new installation path.

ü To use a custom VST / VST3 Plugins folder go to the Options / Preferences / Settings of your DAW / host program in order to assign it.

ü If an installed VST plug-in is not available, check if the installation path is actually monitored by your DAW (VST2 or VST3) host application.
