-
-
No problem. Please keep us in the loop.

today i tested this issue on another macbook with mojave.
i tested on two DAW's: Cubase Elements 10 and Reaper - results are about the same
Cubase Results:
VST 2 plugin (don't work correctly)
VST 3 plugin -work FINE automation
Reaper Results:
AU plugin (don't work correctly)
VST 2 plugin (don't work correctly)
VST 3 plugin - work FINE automation
conclusion: VST 3 plugin of virus control only works correctly -
Cubase Results:
VST 2 plugin (don't work correctly)
VST 3 plugin -work FINE automation
That made me curious and I tried it myself. Same result.
VST2 overwrites Filter 1 Cutoff automation
VST3 works as expected
On Mac OS X Sierra 10.12.6
So, this has nothing to do with Mac OS Mojave, and thus you ran into a probably pretty old bug. I'd recommend to use the VST3 version, which is generally better and more stable than the VST2 version.
Please change the title of your thread to remove the reference to Mac OS Mojave.
PS: Automation for the AU version works fine in Logic X 10.4.3

topic title - edited - big thnx for help tests.
Today I received a response from the Access - they sent my request to the support department - since the problem is taking place
ps: it's very strange that this issue is very old and stretches from earlier versions of Mac OS and no one mentioned it

i've never heart about this issue before. it surprises me a little because what you do is nothing really special. what I know through is that Virus Control doesn't really differentiate in between different types of controllers, in other words, something like this should happen to every parameter in the same fashion. it would be interesting to learn if what you've found also happens with earlier versions of cubase.
in any case, i'd like to recommend to you to use VST3 instead.

Marc, I tested on Cubase Elements 9.5, Cubase Elements 10. I used different OS (Mac os mojave and Win 8.1)
On win 8.1 all plugins (VST and VST3 work fine)
the problem only on Mac os when i used AU and VST version (VST3 work fine)
