How to access extra content in Cubase

Post by The Paul meister »

Hi everyone,

When I downloaded Cubase Elements 14, the 'Steinberg Download Assistant' comes up with a lot of extra content, e.g. 'Analogue Wonder' and 'Cinematic Electronic'.

How do I access all this stuff within Cubase?

Thanks, Paul

There should be a tabbed section on the right hand side of the main arranger page (if there’s not click the square with a line on the right hand side button in the top right) it defaults to the vsti tab but there should be a media tab there. Click that and they should be listed there. If not you need to go into library manager and use the settings function to tell Cubase where to find them

A lot of this content must be purchased. You need to go to the steinberg website and buy the content you want and get an activation code. Then enter the code in the download manager and it will become available to download.

Thanks for your replies. At the moment I'm running a Cubase 14 Pro trial and seem to have access to all the sound packs.

Is this only for the trial, and I would have to purchase them if I upgrade? I'm only looking to upgrade to Cubase Artist.

Check the version comparison for what you get, but yes, elements comes with a reduced level of content.

The two examples you've given seem to be (ugh!) loops.

Take a look in the Media Bay; if you have them they'll be in there.
