Hi - I'm new to Cubase - just starting w Cubasis. I wanted to use impulse reverbs (Sir) but realized they're wave files & the Cubasis vst wants fxp files. Am I missing something or does that mean I can't use them? Thanks
 
SIR works just fine in cubase. Just load the plugin and all the impulses in your vst effects folder.
 
OK - I cut & pasted my impulse files fr another folder into Cubasis vst folder, tried to load & it failed to load. A message labled "Direct x Wrapper" says can't find the requested filter - did you move the plug in file? Any idea what that's about? Thanks.
 
If you're talking .fxp, then sounds like you're trying to load them through the preset management menu. That's not gonna work. You need to use the "Open File" button to navigate to where the impulse is. You shouldn't need to copy them into the vstplugins folder, or anything like that.
 
Thanks for the tip but I don't quite understand...hate to be dense.

When I open the vst send for a song, impulse files crash.

If I go to file/open/vst plugs/impulse - ... I click any type for file & get the impulse verbs, select one & then?? I don't know where it goes. Nothing shows up on the send dialog box. I'm close but not there yet...
 
Sorry, didn't see this earlier. By "Open File" I meant the "Open File" button in SIR. Click on it, and navigate to the impulse file (which are .wav files) and load. It should load in SIR and you should see its waveform there.

So step by step:
1. In Cubase's arrange window right-click in the track name area and select "Create FX Channel"... select Stereo and OK.
2. Open the Mixer. In the mixer click on the little "e" button for the FX channel that you created to open up the channel edit window.
3. In the window, click on one of the empty insert slots and select SIR. TIP: With reverbs and such, I normally insert them in the second insert slot, just in case I need to put and EQ and the like before it.
4. The SIR window will open.
5. In the SIR window click "Open File" button, navigate to the impulse, hit OK to load the impulse.
6. Click on the little "e" button for the track you want to apply the reverb to.
7. On the right, slots (the send slots), click on the top one and select the FX channel SIR is on.
8. You can adjust the send amount by using the green slider directly under that send slot.
