Steinberg's Cubase VST/24 Offers Direct Support for Yamaha's DSP Factory

September 26, 1998 -- Steinberg today announced Macintosh and Windows support with Cubase VST/24 of the new Yamaha DSP Factory-a digital audio D2416 PCI-Card for Macs with DSP Horse Power for flexible signal routing and audio processing as EQs, compressors, gates and effects processing. Cubase VST/24 3.6 for Windows is currently completely integrated with the Yamaha DSP Factory. Macintosh ASIO drivers and DSP Factory support with Cubase VST/24 for Macintosh will be available during fourth quarter 1998.

Steinberg provides a seamless integration of the card's functionality into Cubase VST/24. The acclaimed VST (Virtual Studio Technology) architecture will allow the user to directly access all the interface and processing functionality of the DSP Factory with a dedicated set of mixer objects, embedded into VST. The audio section is fully automated and allows the bouncing of audio tracks digitally.

With this powerful combination of Cubase VST and DSP Factory the user gets the best of both worlds. Native Audio Processing with an open PlugIn architecture for flexible expansion and the pro quality digital audio converters and processors on Yamaha's card.

"The combination of VST and DSP Factory brings a new level of power to those creating on the mac platform. Yamaha is thrilled Steinberg's Macintosh customers will now be able to enjoy the benefits of the DSP Factory," commented Peter Chaikin, Yamaha Pro Audio Product Manager.

"It is another big step in computer based recording technology", comments Manfred Ruerup, Steinberg President. "We are very happy about Yamaha's move towards the computer, bringing their expertise in recording technology to the musician. We are looking forward to a great sounding studio with enormous features for a radical budget"
