VST Plug-in Manager Window

You can manage VST effects and VST instruments in the VST Plug-in Manager window.

The VST Plug-in Manager is divided into the following sections:

VST Effects: Lists all VST effects that are loaded in Cubase. To sort the list by a specific attribute, click the corresponding column header.
VST Instruments: Lists all VST instruments that are loaded in Cubase. To sort the list by a specific attribute, click the corresponding column header.
Blocklist: Lists all VST effects and VST instruments that are installed on your system but not loaded in Cubase, because they might lead to stability problems or even cause the program to crash.
Toolbar: Shows tools and shortcuts for functions in the VST Plug-in Manager.
Active collection: Shows the active collection. The plug-ins of the active collection are shown in the selectors for VST effects and VST instruments.
Show VST Plug-in Information: Shows information about the selected plug-in.
VST 2 Plug-in Path Settings: Shows the path of the selected VST 2 plug-in.
Plug-in Report: Opens the File Explorer/macOS Finder that allows you to save a text file that contains information about your system as well as plug-in information. This is useful for troubleshooting, for example.
