They go into the VST folder - if that's what your asking......

[VSpaceBoy]

lol.. youre right, thats prob what he was asking.

[Newbie dude]

no,lol. not where they're from. I know the vst's i'm downloading. I'm just asking where I download them to like, whats the name of the folder? Where do I go to get to it.

I mean, I have cubase on my C drive. So When i'm telling my computer where to put the effect so I can use it in cubase, wat are the stps to get to the folder i need?

You can pretty much put them anywhere you want, and then tell cubase where they are.

download them on your desktop,unzip them and create a folder called "vst plugins" in program files.
Put them all there and tell cubase where they are, in prefferences.

Some VST's are programs so you have to install them as a program,others are just files DLL..etc

Download the legal ones only or you're going to hell!

This is what I do as well.

Just to clarify the confusion. The proper word in this instance would be "install" rather than "download"

Nice hook, looks like no biters.........................

ok ,yes there is!

[Newbie dude]

it seems like last time there was a special place, like maybe go to cubase, and then theres other folders inside of it, and one is called effects or vsts or plugins or something. i dunno. i guess i'll see.
