Hello,
I have trouble with VST3 replacement mecanism; which is not implemented i guess because my VST2 are still seen as Spire-1.5 and not replaced by Spire.
Can VST3 replacement functionality be implemented in Spire (so i could go on cubase 14 with no trouble) ?

Hi!
Spire supports manual migration from VST2 to VST3:
1. Duplicate your VST2 Spire track.
2. Replace the VST2 instance with VST3 on the duplicate track.
3. Save the preset from the VST2 track to your library.
4. Load the saved preset into the VST3 Spire instance.
5. Recreate any automation, if necessary.
If you have questions or need assistance, please contact support@reveal-sound.com.

Hello,
Thank you for the workaround, i had it in mind.
But cubase 14 won't let you do that as you can't load VST2 anymore, and i don't want to switch back each time.

Hi!
The manual migration process we mentioned earlier remains the only available method.

We understand the inconvenience, but please note that the decision to drop VST2 support in Cubase is not something plugin developers control.
Currently, Spire does not support automatic VST2-to-VST3 replacement, and we recommend using the manual migration process as outlined earlier. This approach is still the only available method at this time.
We appreciate your understanding.

Yes, indeed the vst2 dropping in Cubase is beyond the plugin developers control, but the vst2-vst3 is completely within your control.
Fortunately I don't have many projects that I actually used Spire in.

Maybe but migration is part of the VST3 spec and there are several ways to implement itvega555 wrote: Sun Apr 06, 2025 12:42 pm We understand the inconvenience, but please note that the decision to drop VST2 support in Cubase is not something plugin developers control.
