To Setup & Use E-MU PowerFX:

Setup Cubase LE

1.Launch Cubase LE.

2.Instantiate E-MU PowerFX in an Insert or Aux Send location within Cubase (go to the EMU folder in VST plug-ins).

3.Press the Insert Edit button in Cubase to bring up the E-MU PowerFX plug-in window shown on the previous page.

E-MU PowerFX

4.Make sure the Insert Enable button is illuminated, indicating E-MU Power FX is on. The blue “Signal Present” indicators will be illuminated if E-MU PowerFX is properly patched into a signal path.

5.Drag the desired effects from the Effects Palette to the center Insert strip.

6.Click on the Effect you wish to edit in the center Insert Strip (it will be highlighted in yellow), then adjust the effects parameters in the right section of the window.

7.You can also select or edit User Presets from the section below the FX parameters. See the “User Preset Section” for more information.

Delay Compensation

If you are using Cubase VST 5.1, or another older sequencer without automatic delay compensataion, you will have to insert an E-Delay Compensator into any other audio tracks to keep them time-aligned.

8.Simply insert an E-Delay Compensator plug-in into the same insert location you used for E-MU PowerFX on any other audio tracks. That’s it.

Using any driver other than “E-MU ASIO” may produce undesirable results when using E-MU PowerFX.
