cubase

Hello fellow composers, I recently changed my workflow from having the video in my Cubase sessions to using Non Lethal Applications Video Sync 5. I run VideoSync on a separate MacMini, synced via MTC. At first: Video Slave is awesome and works very well and stable, but I struggle with the...

Hi all! Wondering if anyone can help with a weird issue I'm having in cubase. Basically when clicking on certain events it's selecting multiple events. I have absolutely no idea why it's doing this and it's obviously making workflow extremely difficult. In some circumstances it's both midi and...

Hello, I'm a long time Cubase user, but am now exploring Reaper. So far I'm enjoying the process, but I have a couple of questions that I can't seem to figure out. I'm sure most of these have simple answers, but any help is appreciated. 1. Whenever I load Kontakt from the "Insert virtual...

Does anyone know a proper way to do this? Looking to use my Surface Pro for macros/buttons to operate my Cubase Template. Having issues finding an app or something more simple on Windows 10

Hello all. I am hoping someone can help with this one. My Cubase has always worked perfectly fine with no issue and this happened one day when I booted up and now will dot go away. No idea what has caused this or even what it is. Any advice would be much appreciated. Thank you

I wrote a web-application for generating expression maps for Cubase and JavaScript arrays for my OSC template a while back where I also showed parts of my OSC template (https://vi-control.net/community/threads/xpressmapp-expressionmap-generator-for-cubase-and-osc.107827/). Because of a request...

Hi, this is my first time that I work with film. The editor told me that the film starts at 00:58:30:00. How can I sync my project to this? Do I use the project start time or the display time offset on project set up? Why does this happen?

I have 11 Pro on my tower, and Studio One on my laptop. I looked in my Steinberg account and noticed I have a couple licenses for Cubase LE and AI, which came bundled with a few unrelated hardware purchases (new RME interface, etc). So I installed AI on my laptop just to have Cubase, but the...

Is there a way to copy a MIDI passage and then paste it to another track on top of another region that already has MIDI data, and just merge the two tracks as oppose to replace the existing region? Example: I have a 3-voice chordal passage that is spread over three MIDI instruments, and I want...

Hello fellow composers. This is a small update and a small addition to the first package of my custom Track Icons. Cubase doesn't give you the option for batch importing Icons. That's why I included a project file, for every single collection with "track pictures" folder. Running it, will prompt...

hi everyone, this is a new demo on our music production lessons at Saint Louis College of Music in Rome. Have a good listening.

Hi, We are often faced with managing our hardware resources such as CPU and RAM. Until today, I was using the "Performance Monitor" application of my Windows 10. But now, I use the Xbox Game Bar widget that I place in a corner of the screen. Press Windows logo key + G to open Game Bar over your...

Hey! Ive recently stepped into the electronic world, just for get some experience and Im really enjoying the workflow. Its a short experiment but hope u will like it! Any feedbacks r very welcome!

SOLVED. After some messing around, re-installs and reboots without success I just now opened an old project and started doing some normal editing and it's fixed itself. I don't know how to reproduce this but everything seems back to normal.

Maybe my favourite workflow tip of all time! Retro MIDI recording workflow video here using Cubase 10.5 or higher. Hope this helps someone out there who is just discovering this feature. I go over linear recording, cycle recording and typical usage. (Thanks to a VI Control member pointing me...

Hi! Its a short one, I just got into the mood of HGW's scores after watching Deja Vu with Denzel. Tried to create a quite similar musical enviroment. Hope u like it! :)

Hey! Its my kinda first try diving in this style. Hope u like it. Ofc any suggestions r welcome! Thanks!

Hi everyone! I've been busy with an ambitious template called Project Colossal. Its designed to work with the Cinematic Studio Series. It delivers a clear, transparant orchestral sound. This results in an even better and realistic balance while programming your music. Something very valuable to...

Hello fellow composers, maybe someone can help me on this Ninja MLE stuff: How to select the last CC1 event of a selected midi part? I often need to select the last event to see its value in order to pick the value up when writing CC1 / Dynamics data. When using the "Divide track list"...

I wrote a little web application for creating expressionmaps for Cubase more easily with some useful features which in my opinion are missing in the Cubase expressionmap editor: https://nils-lischka.com/xpressmapp In the video below you can see a little walkthrough of me creating an...

Hello, I have been using Logic for about 2 years now. However, for one of my classes recently, we were required to purchase Cubase Elements as our DAW. As I am getting more familiar with Cubase, there are a few features that I like from Cubase that I wish were in Logic, such as the automation...

So lately i have been getting CPU spikes in Cubase, and this is just a recent issue for me. I can load 100 Kontakt instruments with no issues at all, but when i open a non-kontakt instrument (for example Serum or any type synth) i get insane CPU spikes with just one track. Any ideas? Thanks

Wondering if anyone can help. I’m setting on a very large template. Some of the VSTi instruments I want to map come as different plugins that are related. Think “Solo Violin Tremolo”, “Solo Violin Staccato”, “Solo Violin Pizzicato” and so on. They do not come in a host like Kontakt or...

A simple melody just popped out my head last week. Also imagined a short movie scene for that: A chinese soldier/hero is arriving to the castle on a horse, the king opens the door and the hero walks thru the court and two side r the poor citizens facing down the ground being thankful to save...

Hi guys, Here is to hoping to find someone more knowledgeable than me. Most of my professional work is related to MIDI programming and mixing, however as of late I found myself dabbling in audio post-pro for films which suddenly led to a frustrating discovery (or maybe I just didn't notice it...

Hi, i'm trying to understand when to use directions or attributes. Maybe mixing them would give the best results. Simplified: say i have a string library with some long and some short (or finite) articulations. I could create two main directions (long and short) and then have all sub...

Hi, is there i way to modulate (in my case scale) CC data in Cubase? Say you have a velocity controlled patch and a little note figure with some dynamic accents for some notes and want to repeat that figure ostinato style. I'm now looking for a non destructive method to scale the velocity...

New episode! Season 1 Episode 7: Let's explore how to sing midi notes. Will this work? In this crazy episode I try out singing and whistling into Cubase to compose music. I've always heard and seen tutorials on Cubase's VariAudio feature where you can manipulate vocals and extract midi...

Hello, I'm trying now to change the midi port of a multiswitches (8 switches), using a fader... This multi is meant to send note on (pitch from 0 to 7) to cubase, in mackie mode, to control the Rec button. I have a Fader which changes the value i use for Midi Target (value named 'PortMackie')...

Hey guys, Lately I've been getting an eternal beach ball thingy (I am on a Mac) whenever I quit my project and it stops responding completely, forcing me to shut down manually. I have about 250+ tracks in the project (deactivated), as well as a reasonable number of effects and busses, about...

Hello, I'd like to control the midi message sent by a fader, with one switch. I know how to make when it's about sending only midi CC... but... I want this : - if my switch is on 0 --> fader control PitchBend on midi port 4 (Mackie in Cubase). - if my switch is on 1 --> fader sends cc out, to...

Have searched for a bit both in manual, here on VI Control, and via internet search with no luck. Anyone know if Cubase will output OSC messages? I've tried to get this to work in Cubase with no luck. I got it working with OSCulator and Lemur in Logic where the OSC data would populate...

Hi all, I hope you're well! First video of the year for me. For those Cubase users, here's a quick tip to speed up your workflow with Ostinato patterns - Automating and randomizing the velocity controls to give you quicker results, with less static movement. All with the click of a button

Hi, There's a feature that I love in Ableton, but I can't seem to figure out how to achieve in Cubase. I want to adjust the pitch of an audio event, and have the stretching of the audio follow the pitch, the same way it does when you play the audio in a sampler (playing a lower pitch will...

So atm I'm using Reaper and have been fairly happy with it. I wonder what switching to another DAW like Cubase or Studio One could bring. One thing I really like doing when working with Kontakt is routing from (pure) MIDI tracks to one instance of Kontakt and then route the audio to seperate...

Hello, I have came across a very irritating issue in my Mac with VE Pro 7: pressing the space bar from within VE Pro does not play/stop the playback in Cubase (both 10.5 and 11). By using Logic Pro instead it works without problems (!). Is there anybody which has experienced that? Thanks :)

Hi. I had a question. Studio one 5.1 is working and so is Cubase 11. Which of these is better for writing with Orchestral libraries, Working with Film and bug templates. I have read other places and not convinced completely. Put up your experiences

Can you please recommend me some videos or courses (free or paid) that explain in detail how to build an orchestral template, routing etc.? I use Cubase 10.5 and Spitfire Symphonic Orchestra plus some pianos and synths like Omnisphere, Zebra and Diva. Thanks

After yet another cycle of trying out different DAWs I feel more and more uncertain as I move on. Any advice is appreciated! Also sorry for another "help me pick a DAW" thread, but I feel like I have specific enough idea of what I want that maybe that justifies it? :) Also sorry for the long...

Hey all, A while ago I made this mockup of Hans Zimmer's main title for The Rock. I love that theme and it was fun to re-create it! Here I show how I did it. I have for a loooong time been thinking about making videos, but I am quite shy to talk on camera! Please let me know if this any good...

Hi all, let me start this off by saying that I know that there is already information out there in other posts regarding what I am about to ask. There is tons of conflicting information though, and I’m just looking for a definite answer with some of these questions. I am upgrading my PC...

Hello everyone, I'm experiencing a problem with Cubase 10 export and i just can't get behind it after hours of trying around. When exporting a certain track of mine I get little errors in the audio that sound like little "clicks". I don't get these mistakes when playing back in Cubase itself...

Hi folks, For 3 days now I've been trying to get it work but only with partial success. While the Generic Remote for visibility and general Cubase controls (modwheel, play, record, save, export etc.) works perfectly fine, there are always problems when returning data to Lemur. I have adjusted...

Hey there, Having sold a Keyboard I no longer needed , I am thinking about going back to the Native Instruments S49 / A49 MKK2 + Komplete Kontrol , hosted via Cubase. I did have the MKI when it came out, but back then more than a few instances of Komplete Kontrol seemed to either Crash or...

This meaning can be applied to any DAW, but since I'm using Cubase I'm thinking this way - why the developers cannot release for example Cubase Millenia or another cool name and then year to year work on updates and number them 123, 145, 2194 etc? In my viewpoint today we have a 5th generation...

Hello everyone, I have been struggling since forever to get my video files into Cubase, and I need to finally end this now. For example: I got a mp4 video from my phone. Looking here https://helpcenter.steinberg.de/hc/en-us/articles/115000808250-Video-support-in-Nuendo-Cubase-WaveLab-and-Dorico...

Every so often, I check to see if Yamaha /Steinberg have released a new controller for Cubase - they never have :( But I end up on their Nuage Control Surface page, just lusting after its beauty. Unfortunately it also has an almost house price to go with it! Nuage Control Surface for Cubase /...
