Howto route a DSP synth to Cubase? Connect it to an ASIO Dest. Then in Cubase you can record it.
We usually don't monitor to ASIO Dest, since that adds extra latency. But you could put VST inserts on monitoring-enabled track, and if needed let Cubase play its controlling MIDI a bit earlier so it compensates for the added ASIO latency.

conect Scope MIDI source to synt midi in - then route the audio from the synth to the mixer

NB! This is routing - don't mix it up with rewire - a Proppellerhead protocol.

The module Pulsar Midi A source points to the hardware Midi input on your Pulsar card...
Use the Midi sequencer module instead to connect to Cubase.

You should study the manual for a while, it's explained very well.
Midi is not ASIO by the way, Midi is not 'sound'... (you say 'Cubase showing that there is a sound, and still, not a sound..').
SFP works just like an analog classic studio where you have to connect everything with cables, but
the thing as a whole is not a toy, so take the time to read the f. manual :-)

Like Hubird says:

You can combinde this with the midi merger.
Pulsar midi > synth let you play the synth thru scope, and you can record midi to cubase, while seq midi to synth plays your cubase midi track with scope synth.

You better change Cubase MIDI IN to NO MIDI SOURCE when you have finished midi recording, or you might se a midi loop


i forgot; connect Seq midi dest to merger

yes katano, it's well explained in the manual, but the merger is a secret weapon 8)

Thnx it works!
Happy happy happy:)
The manual doesnt include cubase configuration in it.
The biggest problem was how to configure in cubase.

Sorry for all the writing mistakes :)

So, im having alot of fun using SFP synth in cubase.
I did some exploring in this area and it seems and sound (!) that scope's FX are very good !
I managed to rout it with a SFP synth but i was thinking, can i rout an FX to a regular Cubase vst?
Or an Audio Channel?

Thanks and sorry again ;)

The normal way to do this is to route the VSTi out of Cubase thrue an ASIO bus, and apply the fx on it, be it in the project window itself by cabling it, or by inserting it in the mixer's channel which holds the VSTi sound :-)
XTC is another story, I don't and even can't use it (I'm on mac, XTC is not supported on mac).

You must activate a few extra 'busses', open the Master mixer of Cubase, pull the window to the right (I'm still on an old Cubase, but it will work similar I guess).

These busses are not busses like the usual mixer table 'busses', it are ASIO busses, plugging audio channels to other ASIO software inputs, like the SFP ones.

Make sure (before opening Cubase) you have extra busses choosen in your SFP ASIO Source module.

Having done this, output the Cubase mixer track that holds the audio of the VSTi to the ASIO bus of your choice.
:-)
