Filament is an instrument plugin. Load it like any other virtual instrument.

Setup

1Create a new Instrument track
2Select Filament (VST3) as the instrument
3Click the instrument slot on an output row to load a plugin
4Select a plugin from the VST folder — it will be added for quick access
5Connect an input voice to the output row to hear sound

That's It

Filament hosts instruments internally. All routing happens inside the plugin — no external MIDI routing, MIDI sends, or track setup required.

Tip: Use VST3 format in Cubase for the best experience.
