Is Cubase VST/VST3 effects plugin allowed in other daw/software

I have cubase 14 pro, want to know if cubase vst/vst3 effects plugins are allowed in other softwares which can accept vst/vst3 plugins. I can see some vst3 plugins are visible, how to see the others?

If you’re referring to the plugins that come with Cubase or Nuendo; Unfortunately not. They are exclusive to Cubase (or Nuendo).

Do the ones that you have showing there (not including Spectralayers which will) actually work? They are not individual plugs but are bundled as a vstplugin set and generally those can’t work with other DAWs but maybe this set does.

From the stock vsts I GUESS only Retrologue and Padshop, all the rest are Cubendo ONLY, the ones from Steinberg you CAN see in another DAWs are those you buy separately like Halion, Halion Sonic and all included here Virtual Instruments & Sample Libraries | Steinberg

I see cubase vst instruments from other software, my question was about cubase vst effects.

Thanks

Simple answer is no they don’t.

Would love to have SuperVision in other DAWs!

I definitely think there’s an argument to be made for Steinberg bundling certain of the more popular stock plugins and selling them at this point. I bet there’d be a market that’d likely more than offset whatever would be gained by their “exclusivity”, and I bet they could prove this statistically.

Most people only really seem to care about core DAW functionality as their deciding factor: is it a good fit for them? Is the workflow intuitive and fast enough for the music they’re trying to create?

I sure as hell didn’t buy Ableton so I could use Operator or somesuch, that’s for sure. I very much doubt many have.
