Setting up Strobe/Cypher as Effects in Cubase Essential 5

[Smoking_Gnu]

Hello all,

I'm attempting to use CypherFX as an effects plugin on one of my VST instruments in Cubase Essentials 5. So far I've:

1. Added an FX track with CypherFX as the effect.
2. Opened the VST instrument channel setting and selected FX1-CypherFX in the Sends list.
3. Turned the post-fader on and put the send level all the way up.
4. Play a key on the VST instrument track to engage.

(Which is what I normally do for any other insert effect.)

However, I can't get anything to play as long as the send effect is active. What do I have to do? All the other settings on CypherFX are set as detailed in the operations manual, so I'm guessing this has something to do with Cubase.

(Here's a screen capture; can't get the image to embed in the post for some reason.)
