I would love to have a plugin-format - Lets call it VSTm that can be loaded into Cubase’s channel strip. Lets say I want a channel to be and SSL strip, I can load a VSTm (Created by Waves as an example) unto that channel, with direct access to the knobs - not though a VST window. Basically remove the build-in cubase knobs. Be able to load saturation, eq, compression etc with direct access.
Sort of like the way Mixbus from harrison works, but configurable, with plugins from 3rd suppliers…
