Teac US-428 - Manual (Page 37)

8.1 Cubase VST - Windows
The US-428 is fully supported under
Cubase v5.xx for Windows, including
ASIO 16 and 24 bit drivers and control
surface mapping. Note that the US-428
is fully functional as both an audio and
32 channel MIDI interface in earlier
versions of Cubase as well. In the
previous version (v3.7x), partial
functionality of the controller surface is
supported; however, to fully utilize the
features of the US-428 under Cubase
VST, it is necessary to run v5.00 or
later.
The full version of Cubase VST (as well
as VST Score and VST/32) support a
four band fully parametric EQ on each
channel. Of course, it’s supported on the
US-428 - each of the four bands of VST
are controlled by the four associated EQ
band selector buttons.
Before setting up the US-428 to work
with Cubase, please install the US-428 v
3.0 drivers. Begin the setup procedure
below with the US-428 plugged in and
powered on. If you have not already
done so, install Cubase VST
NOTE: Several revisions and bug fixes
were implemented in subsequent
updates to VST 5. We suggest you visit
Steinberg’s website and make sure
you’ve got the most current version.
Installing under Cubase 5.0 and later:
Open the Cubase application.
From the OPTIONS pulldown menu,
choose REMOTE SETUP / SETUP.
o Under REMOTE, select US-
428.
o Select US-428 CONTROL
for INPUT and OUTPUT.
Under the OPTIONS / AUDIO
SETUP / SYSTEM menu, locate the
ASIO DEVICE selector and choose
one of the US-428’s ASIO drivers
(16 or 24 bit) as the device.
Under VST INPUTS, make sure both
pairs of inputs are open (green input
indicators are lit).
Note: these parameters save with the
song and are not globally remembered.
You will need to save the song as
DEF.ALL if you want the US-428 remote
setup to load automatically.
Open the US-428’s Control Panel
(Device Manager). From the
pulldown menu, select “US-428
Native”.
You should now be ready to use
Cubase 5.0 with the US-428.
With Cubase 3.7 and earlier:
Open the Cubase application.
From the AUDIO pulldown menu,
choose SYSTEM. In the ASIO drop-
down menu, select the US-428 16-
or 24-bit ASIO drivers.
From the OPTIONS / VST REMOTE
menu, select CS-10. Select the US-
428 CONTROL PORT for the in and
out communication.
You should now be ready to use
Cubase 3.7x.
Note that support under older versions
of Cubase is limited. You will not have
access to unlimited fader channels or all
EQ and Aux sends. Full control will only
be available in VST 5.0 and later.
