Using The Built-In Effect Of The Mr816 As A Vst Plug-In Of Cubase - Steinberg MR816CSX Operation Manual

Using the built-in effect of the MR816 as a VST plug-in of
Cubase
You can use the built-in effect of the MR 816 CSX/MR 816
X as a VST plug-in effect within Cubase by setting the
MR816 CSX/MR816 X to the external effect mode.
The MR816 CSX lets you apply the Channel Strip effect to
the eight mono channels or four stereo channels, or apply
the Channel Strip effect to the six mono channels or three
stereo channels and the REV-X effect to one stereo chan-
nel while the MR816 X lets you apply the REV-X effect to
one stereo channel.
In the external effect mode, the digital input/output chan-
nels of the MR816 CSX/MR816 X function as effect buses
exclusively for Cubase. In addition, the effect is applied to
the digital input/output channels while being applied to
the Send/Return of the internal mixer and input channels
normally.
Even when the MR816 CSX/MR816 X is set to the external
effect mode, the analog input/output channels can be
used.
