Hi I’m new an a novice.

My VSTs are in cubase 15 elements.

I have thumbnails for stock VSTs and one for serum.My others ie: arturia pigments,rob papen predator 3 etc not in vst Steinberg thumbnail folder,it’s empty.

Any ideas please.

I’m happy to be a cubase newbie.

Appreciate you all many thanks

Open the VST instrument and click the thumbnail “snapshot” icon.

You have to manually do it for each plugin you have, btw.

Sounds like you were on a snapshot spree!

Word of warning
Thumbnails are stored in your RAM once you open MediaBay in your project. This can eat up a fair amount of your RAM if you’ve got lots of them in high resolution. If your RAM is limited then you might want to reduce your image resolution.
