Update: I got this answer from Steinberg support.
“Please see page 20
The Basic FX Suite can only be accessed from within Cubase or the DSPMix window”
That really sucks. How much lovers are they going to win over by trying to force buyers to use Cubase to get the full potential of this card and it’s included software? It’s a shame that even when you buy a product legimately, your tempted to find pirated versions… But then again. It shouldn’t be illegal to have a pirated version of a plugin you have paid for… right?
