Steinberg VST2 discontinued in favor of VST3

[Spawn-X]

P’tit lu all…

I just updated from Cubase Pro 11 to Cubase Pro 12 which is no longer compatible with the VST2 protocol. I therefore find myself unable to use my licenses of EZDrummer 2 and EZKeys which are both in VST2.4 format. 🙁

Toontrack, do you plan to convert these virtual instruments quickly to VST3 format?

EZBass is in VST3.7.2 format, so I take it you can convert older software from your catalog as well.

Can you tell us more?

Thank you for your answers.

 

PS: Screenshots show plugin information under Cubase Pro 11 because CP12 can no longer load them.

EZdrummer version: 2.2.3
Operating system: Windows 10

Cubase 12 has only removed VST2 support on Apple silicon Macs in native mode, so VST2 plug-ins should still work on Windows. You may need to enable them in Cubase plug-in settings or something.
