I suppose that Vst effects, you mean, are added afterwards and hence won't affect the live sound as you play.
When I record I use the sound of a Vst (i.e the effects set in the active Vst) or the sound from a POD. Sometimes I record something and add the effects like reverb or delay afterwards. Now I don't remember the term but you can route a channel to another channel that holds the effect, but I'm not sure that will solve your problem. -------------------- My bands homepage

QUOTE (Darfuria @ May 7 2009, 11:30 PM)  I'm confused as to how I enable a VST effect on an audio channel in Cubase SX3, so that when I'm playing my guitar I can hear the effect. I've setup my sound card (Soundblaster X-Fi Audio Platinum), and when I press "monitor" on an audio track, I can hear me playing - but whenever I add any of the preset effects or a VST, I either get no output, or just the clean sound. Any advice would be appreciated  Press monitor ON when you wanna hear VST plugin real time when you record but also turn it OFF when you want to listen what you recorded. However, some VSTs have issues with presets and they do not respond well, it's more like a bug. -------------------- Youtube

Guitar Rig as effect is normally not inserted directly on the track. You have to make FX track, insert Guitar Rig there, and then SEND the guitar track to that FX track.

QUOTE (Darfuria @ May 8 2009, 01:31 AM) Not using Guitar Rig - downloaded a VST synth - and pressing the monitor just enables/disables playback - I don't ever hear the VST - even if I record the guitar and play it back. Wait a sec, VST synth is triggered by MIDI signal ONLY, you need to put it on MIDI track to play Midi notes, it doesn't work with your guitar as an effect.

QUOTE (Darfuria @ May 8 2009, 01:56 AM) Ah. So is there any way of getting a MIDI track to take the sound from my audio track? Or perhaps any other real-time methods/plugins. Guitar Rig works fine - so one would presume there is other real-time software that can also work? Saying that - shouldn't Cubase's own plugins work? Or are they MIDI only as well? You have to know that there are VST effects and VST instruments, effects work with everything that already has a sound so you can apply them on audio track OR on VST instrument output track cause that is not MIDI track, it's already audio track (produces sound from VST instrument). On the other hand VST instruments (drums, keys, bass, synths etc) need MIDI signal to produce sound. I you wanna play your guitar and get sound from VST synth etc then you need Midi pickup and converter or something like this , audio signal from your guitar would be converted into MIDI and then it can trigger VST instrument. -------------------- Youtube

QUOTE (Darfuria @ May 8 2009, 02:07 AM) However, when ever I apply VST effects to my audio track (Cubase's own distortion or delay, for example), that has the same effect - nothing. That's probably the bug thing I mentioned before, not sure. Although I don't know why do you need Cubase's guitar effects AT ALL when you have Guitar Rig?

QUOTE (Darfuria @ May 8 2009, 02:14 AM) I don't  I'm just curious as to why it's not working. I may want to use them on a different audio track.Believe me, sometimes it's better not to know, stick to what works for you and play, I've had too many headaches for digging too much inside Cubase, plugins etc.

This might sound stupid bit this sounds like your track output is not set to that VST instrument. Go to the track output and instead of selecting sound card output, select GUITAR RIG. That's how you're gonna hear it. It will show on your output list. Of course it has to be loaded before. And it can be on an audio track in Cubase, not midi.

Muris, I'll take your word for it...
Emir, here's a screenshot of a new Cubase project. I don't have the option to select Guitar Rig as an ouput anywhere. Usually I just check/uncheck monitor and it works. The issue wasn't with Guitar Rig though, rather my lack of knowledge regarding VST, and Cubase's built-in plugins not working with audio tracks.

I can't see your picture. Try again If you're using a software synth then it has to be midi track for sure but that's nothing to do with your guitar. You need some midi notes to hear it. And there (on the midi track output) your VST instrument will show in the output list. In case of an audio effect you can place it on "insert" and enable it from there. -------------------- Check out my <a href="https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/instructor/Emir-Hot" target="_blank">Instructor profile</a>

QUOTE (Emir Hot @ May 8 2009, 02:29 AM) I can't see your picture. Try again I can see it. It shows only one audio track that you've been working on and output on that one should be your audio card, no doubt. Emir was talking about Midi track output, in order to hear VST instrument on it you need to open it on VST list (F11) and then assign it as an output on Midi track. QUOTE (Darfuria @ May 8 2009, 02:34 AM) With software synths, I need to be inputting MIDI audio. There is no Midi audio, Midi is Midi, audio is audio, but you're getting there!
