plugin attachment stress

[joeymusicguy]

so when i switched to cubase 5, i lost the plugin "reverb a" built in to nuendo 3

call me an idiot, but i liked how this sounded

the new "basic as crap" reverb in cubase 5 isn't cutting it for me

i usually add a little reverb to screaming vocals, and the new verb just makes it sound like its in a bathroom, no matter how i tweak all of the settings

so how do you deal with technological changes where previous versions of something are no longer available for use, and also what type of reverb plugins do you guys use on screaming

Interesting. I've got Reverb A in my Cubase 5. I don't remember if it came installed or if I manual copied it over from Cubase SX though. Just find the Reverb A.dll and transfer it into your Cubase plugins folder. Same goes for any other old Nuendo/Cubase plugins.

NICE

but when i switch to protools im gonna cry when i first have to add reverb to a scream

Haha! Are you really going to make the switch eventually, or are you just being sarcastic? If I were mixing bands full-time like you I would probably make the switch eventually, but for my own writing and production, Cubase is absolutely essential for my workflow.

Oh nice! You'll have to keep us posted on how the transition goes for you. I'll make the switch one day, but for now I'd rather use the money it would take for other toys. The only thing that bugs me about Pro Tools is its midi. It just different from what I'm used to and my drum programming is useless without the countless Cubase drum maps I've built.

 

[colynomial]

^You're not the first person to say this but personally I've never had any problem with PT and MIDI. Arguably that's just because it's what I'm used to but I do a lot of stuff that is almost exclusively sample libraries through Kontakt 2 and it's always been pretty painless. I suppose it would make sense to have a dedicated drum mapper, but I always do my drum programming in this standalone GM MIDI program called "Tabledit"- kind of like Guitar Pro I guess but I think a little less "guitar" oriented and more arrangement oriented. Then I just import the MIDI map to PT, pull up Kontakt and it plays back the Colossus drum samples perfectly from the GM MIDI drum map. I've heard with the Slate samples it's more complicated but that's what works for me.

 

[Splat88]

^Yeah, I hear what you're saying, a lot of it depends on what you're used to. If I just had Cubase's drum maps in Pro Tools! I do some pretty crazy edits on the drum map in Cubase that is impossible to do quickly in any other DAW I've used, at least in my experience.

I suppose this thread is in the wrong section

Just copy your reverb a (dll) from nuendo, to your cubase 5 vst folder then it will show up and works fine after that I switched from cb3sx to cb5 and didn't have those vst I found the (dll) in an additional vst folder withing the program disc with reverb a,b and mod delay , and double delay, and more just copied the (dlls) and paste them in the cb5 vst folder and it will show up and worked on the next load up of the program.
hope this helps but it wont matter since your switching but it could help some one maybe.

Bhow


just realized this was already said lol oh well..

joey, you may even have some luck getting reverb A in protools. grab the mac vst version of reverb A (you may need to install nuendo on your mac, you can delete it when you're done), get this: http://www.macmusic.org/software/view.php/lang/en/id/1502/VST-to-RTAS-Adapter

you'll need to have your cubase dongle plugged in, however, i'm 80% certain it'll work!

thanks,

I'm not sure whether this is valid or not, but couldn't you create a convolution of some of the reverb settings you like from Reverb A and load them into a convolution plugin that works in your next DAW program or version?

 

[LeSedna]

Technically that should be possible. He would still loose the workflow of this reverb A (if I remember it, it's a really simple one).

Ps : you would call it an "impulse", not a "convolution"
