Installation
Double-click the DubStation Installer icon, and follow the instructions. During the installation process the
installer will ask you to enter your registration code. Your registration code uniquely identifies your purchase,
and you will need it if you need to reinstall your plug-in (for example, after upgrading to a new computer).
Keep a copy of the code in a safe location and please don’t share it with your friends. We’re delighted if you
like our products so much that you want to share them, but please ask your friends to buy their own copy so
that we can keep making new products.
Special note for OS X users: you must be logged into an account with administration privileges in order to
successfully install and authorize DubStation.
To un-install from OS X, simply delete the plug-in from your VST folder, which is usually located at
/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/VST/,
and your AudioUnits folder, which is located at /Library/Audio/Plug-
Ins/Components/.
To un-install from Windows, simply delete the plug-in from your VST folder, which is
usually located at C:\Program Files\Steinberg\VstPlugins.
Operation
DubStation, by design, is fairly simple to use. One of the design goals for DubStation was to create a plug-in
that had the same “fun factor” of old hardware delays. If you’re already familiar with either hardware delays
or delay-based software effects, you should have no trouble getting started with DubStation. If you find that
you need some explanation about DubStation’s controls, please return to this manual and read on.
We assume that you are familiar with using plug-ins with your particular host. If you have general questions
about using plug-ins with your host, please refer to its documentation. DubStation is a “true stereo” processor
that can process either mono or stereo signals, and can be used as an insert effect or on an effects-send
channel in your host’s mixer. If used in a stereo context (for example, as an insert on a stereo channel in your
DAW’s mixer), the left and right channels are processed independently with no summing.
