Hello all. Does anyone know if Cubase uses a gate effect on Export Audio Mixdown? And if so, where can it be found and what are the settings so that i can insert it converting midi parts to audio? Thanks in advance. Happy July 4th to all!!! 
The gate plug is under Dynamics in the plugin list. You should put it as an Insert on the VST Channel of the VSTi the MIDI track is routed to.
Got it. Thanks!!!
