every update i see the mods say "VST3 shouldn't be used in a productive environment".. why not? is it a beta or not "stable" yet? because i dont see any problems with it so far.. just want to know what the "official" reason for it is and if anyone has info regarding the VST3 version of VC

Good question. I was wondering the same thing. Especially since I'm guessing us Cubase users should prolly use the VST3 version seeing how steinberg likes the VST3 format. Could be more stable and whatnot..
Also I'm wondering is there any real difference in the VST2/VST3 versions of the plugins? do any of them support sidchain input in Cubase5? Is there any difference at all? -

it is stable but there are a couple of areas (automation, plug-in type declaration etc.) which might change and eventually things could become incompatible. we have no plans to change anything and the plug-in is as stable as the VST2 version but VST3 is a very new standard and some areas are simply not as standardized as a developer hope they would. this doesn't mean that this is necessarily the fault of steinberg. it is just a precaution partly based on the fact that the vast majority of users and third party hosts is still using VST2.
as for instrument side chaining, this is 100% in steinberg's hands and there is nothing we can do about it, mentioning it to them aside which we did probably more than a year ago. sorry.
best, marc
