So Cubase is the thing?
View this Thread in Original format

Hellouh! :happy2:

I just wanna know, is the Cubase best thing for Reason if I want those VST-plugins to be in use? I also wanna use Rebirth, but that I can rewire without Cubase, right? Can I use VST-instruments also with Cubase (like FM7 and ABsynth...) or is only for VST-effects (delay and other stuff)?

And some little bird told me that there is Cubase SX... So is this the best version of Cubase?
Joi Lamusic
or is there some other, maybe better program for this?

I know that Orion Platinum has VST support... But I can't use that with Reason?
hey cheggy
Yes, you can use any VST instrument with cubase. You can also use them with logic 5 which is good if you are running a mac.

But Reason and Rebirth are not VST. Reason can be synced to cubase though through rewire. Rewire is not associated with cubase, it is associated with reason. Hence reason and cubase can be synched and reason and rebirth can be synched. I'm not sure if you can run from rebirth through reason and into cubase.

Any program that is VST will run with cubase. Some will only run with cubase, while others such as absynth and fm-7 are standalone, so they can run individually as well.

Yes, Cubase is the best program to use if you are running windows. If you are running a mac platform, you may find Logic platinum 5.1 will be better, but i don't know for sure. I believe Acid Pro 4 may also VST but you'll have to check with that.

Cubase will also support DX (direct X) plug-ins as well.

Does that answer your question okay? I'm not quite sure qhat you're asking
hey cheggy
and to your other question, Cubase SX is the latest release in the line. I don't know much about it myself but it is suppose to be amazing.
Joi Lamusic
Thanks for helping :)

Yeah, I am using windows so the Cubase is better...Or best ;) So rewiring Reason to Cubase... And rewiring the Reason to Rebirth... But I can't use Reason, Rebirth and Cubase (=VST-plugins) at the same time?
Only Reason and Rebirth or Reason & Cubase can be used at the same time?
Michael Russo
You can use reason with orion platinum, along with vst's.

You *should* be able to use all 3 at the same time but I haven't tried to do that yet so don't quote me on that :)
And Cubase SX kicks serious ass!

Iv never tried but i cant see why you cant, it'l just be a matter of how powerful your pc is.

Does cubase SX only work on XP?
Joi Lamusic
Michael Russo, so I can use Orion Platinum as a "bridge" between Reason and VST-plugins and Rebirth? or can I only use Reason with Orion, not Rebirth alonside also?
