Outputs – Stereo and Multi Output Cards

Stereo Only cards

Standard PC Audio cards, accessed via the ASIO Multimedia or DirectX driver,

normally only allow for one stereo output. With such a card you may be able to play

a large number of channels in Cubase VST, but the output is still only a mixed

stereo signal.

Multi Output Cards

There are three ways Cubase VST can access a card with more than one set of

stereo outputs:

• Via a Windows Multimedia (or DirectX) driver that caters for multi channel

operation.

Some cards come with both a stereo and a multi channel driver. You have to

select either for use in Cubase VST. We recommend that you select the multi-

channel driver.

• Via special Windows Multimedia drivers that make the card appear as several

standard PC cards, to Windows.

• Via a dedicated ASIO driver.

Some cards come with ASIO drivers speciﬁcally written for the card. This is

then the best option to choose, since it allows you to bypass the Windows

Multimedia system.

If your card ﬁts to any of the descriptions above, you will be able to take full advan-

tage of Cubase VST’s “bus system”, see page 194.

Drivers

Cubase always uses ASIO for audio playback. With Cubase VST comes some

ASIO drivers, most notably the ASIO Multimedia driver, which serves as a “glue”

between Cubase VST and Windows Multimedia system and thus allows you to use

standard Windows compatible audio cards, see page 369. For these cards, you do

not need anything else than the latest Windows driver for the card, installed as the

manufacturer recommends. Everything else is installed with Cubase VST.

Other ASIO drivers might be added to the system, for cards that require it. Each

driver should come with its own installation program and instructions.

The technically minded might want to know that ASIO drivers come in the form of

“DLLs”. They can be located anywhere on the hard disk. The installation procedure

adds the driver to the Windows Registry. To replace or remove a driver, use the in-

stallation program that came with the driver. You should deﬁnitely avoid renaming

or moving ASIO drivers “manually”.
