Hey,
What's your take on a very basic action for a media composers working in Key Editors - copying CC lanes from one midi/instrument event and pasting it to multiple events at once. Say you want to copy violin 1 mod wheel + expression to violin 2, violas, cellos and bass.
Copying all the lanes with the mouse selection and then pasting to every single midi event is a drag. How do you do it?
I have a home recorded mix I want to redo, but unfortunately I've lost the project. I have spectral layers basic that separates the vocal well, but would love to separate all stems. (drums, acoustic gs, electric gs, bass, vocal, bvs)... Does anyone have a full spectral layers that would able to help?
I'm still a student, and I've never really furthered this much into Cubase. How do I fade in a track? I'm a beginner, so sorry if you think this is a stupid question.
Edit: I found a way. I moved the track I wanted to fade in to a new lane, put it on solo, and exported the audio mixdown. Then I went back to my project, inserted the audio file and was able to fade in. Thanks for your help anyway.
Hello everyone!
I'm pretty new to producing so I stumble upon problems every so little. Most of the solutions I find by googling, but I seem not to be able to phrase this one right.
So I added automation track woth reverb to my drums track. I wanted to make the first section of the drums to have reverb and then for it to fade slowly. And I drew the automation that way: beginning the highest reverb and then the line gradually falling.
But it doesn't work. The reverb doesn't fade slowly, but just when the line starts falling, it just disappears.
Did anyone have a similar problem? Can I somehow fix it?
Thanks!
Edit: even when the automation is down, it seems to distord the sound of the drums later. I'm gonna flip, help!
Apologies in advance for this rant.
I am so f^&&King frustrated with GGD and Cubase
Why does it not just work?!!! Why can't I select my drum set in Konkat GGD Invasion and it not just immediately and automatically map to the correct midi notes in cubase drum editor?
Why do I have to stuff around with it EVERY SINGLE FREAKING TIME??!!!
Why does GGD only export drum maps to a format (*.nka) that cubase doesn't use for import (*.drm)??!!!
Isn't Misha intimately involved with both GGD and Cubase?
ALL I want is:
How can I do this easily? What the hell am I doing wrong?!
Help u/bulb

Hey so I’m used to using fl studio, and in that I can get 1/6 step for scale but there’s no option for that from what I can see in Cubase, any way for me to get this? Thanks!
Hi, is this possible? Or do you have to change this manually every time?
Thank you :)
Hi,
So I'm using a trial version of Cubase Elements 14. I created a project the other day and programmed some drums, all working fine.
I've come back to the project today, and now I can only hear the metronome, not the drums. I've Googled this and have tried adjusting every setting I can find in studio -> audio connections and studio -> studio setup, but nothing seems to be working.
I am playing the sound through speakers connected to my computer. Everything else works, aside from the tracks.
Does anyone have any ideas how to fix this? I'm losing my mind
I thought in 13 (Pro) I'd pretty much fully disabled the lower zone and everything opened in its own separate window and all in the world was well. I've got 3 high res monitors and want them on a separate window to keep the track window clear. Now it seems in 14 I'm back to some things opening in the lower zone (samplr, drum editor etc...) again, when the options in Editors are both set to 'Open in a Window'. Is there somewhere else I can go to disable the lower zone from keep opening?
i grouped my synths so i could (in a few specific parts of the song) sidechain them to the kick aaaand also grouped my drums so i can filter and “unfilter” them easily instead of going (kick / write automation / remove high end/ etc) so i did group them all and just did that process once…
SOOOO he needs the tracks 1 by 1 separated but all of that is going through the bus so they will export as 1?
is there a way i can leave the effects i did in the group but export them separated?
idk if im explaining myself (also, english is not my first language… spanish is)
HOPE SOMEONE CAN HELP!
much appreciated 🙏🏼🙏🏼
Hello guys, I have an Efnote 3 Drum-Tec-Edition E-Drums set. When I Play with the build in Sounds everything is fine. But as soon as I want to play it with midi into cubease I have one big issue. I’ll take one of the Cubease Plug-ins Groove Agent. When I dont hit my hi-hat from above near the bell. and I hit it more from the side. The Plug-in plays an Kick or an combinaton of kick crash an snare. Does anybody know an way to fix that?
Hi, I'm deciding between Cubase versions and the Artist one is pretty tempting for some features, especially Spectralayers caught my eye.
So my question is, can I put into it any mixed (stereo) mp3 song from a bands album, for example to extract the guitar and vocals to create a backing track or stem for myself to play along?
Hope someone can help out with that question :)
I just bought a midi controller. It has 16 pads I’ve assigned functions to. But I found that I can probably hit the Pad Bank button and it will give me two more sets of 16 pads to assign functions. Well, I tried doing that and it doesn’t seem to work. I know I’m doing something wrong. Is there something I need to do in Cubase to make this work. I just need a few more pads for a few more functions other than my initial 16. BTW it’s a Worlde Orca Pad 16. Plus I want the buttons to stay lit but that another question for another time.
This might be a bit of a loaded post, but I need some guidance regarding my workflow as well.
I've been saving a bit of money and now want to invest in an upgrade for my studio setup, but would like some help and/or recommendations and suggestions since this all seems a bit overwhelming. Nothing too crazy, but I am in the market for a new desktop and new plugins. Would also like to create an easier process for performing backing tracks live, so I'll gladly take any recommendations on midi footboards or controllers to activate presets. I usually perform with my guitar and play along to said backing tracks.
I'm currently running Cubase 11 on an Acer TC-605 desktop (https://www.acer.com/us-en/support/product-support/Aspire_TC-605), which is where I record most of music. The only upgrade I did was add 1TB SSD in 2021. I have a lot of "broken" plugins, which have no doubt their own set of problems. Additionally, my desktop starts to buckle when I have too many plug-ins in use, causing sound crackling, poor performance, or just downright crashing.
I also have two MacBooks: one from 2012 and one from 2021 with an M1 Pro chip. I use the 2012 one for live performances that has a "broken" (I know) version of Ableton for backing tracks, but I'm tired of how finicky it is. I plan on retiring it for the 2021 MacBook and a legit copy of Ableton.
So my question is this: I thought about building a new PC and adding it with more memory so I can more effectively run my plugins, but another thought occurred to me--why not standardize my process and get an iMac or a Mac mini instead? I wouldn't have issues transferring presets, files, plugins, etc because they'd all be from the same OS. In that case, what would you Mac users recommend? Could my new MacBook handle everything?
I have my FX Bus Folder hidden in my template, but everytime I add a FX Bus it gets visible (but only the new bus).
how to prevent that, so the new bus is automatically hidden?
couldn’t find anything online, maybe someone has a workaround!
Hi - I'm in the market for a MIDI controller keyboard. I'm looking at the Arturia Keylab 61 Mk3.
I think I want to use it to play keys, and control QuickControls and Track Modulator macro knobs. That's similar to my how I've been using Ableton.
I have a couple of Arturia plugins (2600V and a couple of FX) but I'm not interested in AnalogLAB or buying more Arturia instruments right now.
So my question is, will it be easy to use the Keylab Mk3 with Cubase 14, but as though it's a generic MIDI controller - that is, ignoring the integration with Arturia instruments and FX? Can I hit one button to put it in "User Mode" and just set & forget?
Thanks!
Hey guys any clue how are such backing tracks made?
The first 40 seconds of below link!

Hi, I've recently come across this video showing some cool Reaper scripts for sound design. I can imagine these being useful for my sound design workflow, especailly the nvk_Create and LKC Variator but ideally I would like to stay in Nuendo, my DAW of choice. Hence, was wondering if these are possible in Cubendo?
Title.
I am still new to learning how to produce in a DAW (Cubase Elements 13). I’m in the process of writing and producing an instrumental metal EP…!
So, I want a MIDI controller obviously to write faster for drum tracks, instead of doing it manually with a mouse (attempted doing it this way a few times with time consuming results…meh), and then go in and tweak it from there.
Money isn’t really an issue, I just want to know what’s a good model (preferably a mini model for space purposes) that’s I’m willing to spend between 300-400 if that’s what it’ll cost for a good entry MIDI controller.
Thanks for all responses!

Recently I switched connections in my control room and this happened - the Insert section in the bottom is completely missing and Cubase only allows me to put Inserts in the Monitor section. UNLESS io open the control room form the "edit" button, like shown in the video. Is this a bug or am I missing something? Do you know how to solve this? Thanks in advance.
Hey there,
I want to get a audio interface to record and mess around with amp simulator’s, (cuz I don’t have any real amps), but I’m concerned about latency. was wondering if I can use any audio interface with cubase and use the plugins on my computer like guitar rig, or do I need a DSP based audio interface (like the UAD apollos) to record and monitor live with fx and without any latency.
For regular audio interfaces I’d probably get a audient id14 or ssl2+ and if I’d get a DSP audio interfaces it would probably be some UAD Apollo. I’d love to hear if someone has any suggestions for a different audio interfaces.
I’m on a MacBook Pro M1 Pro 16 inch running Sonoma.
Thanks so much for any replies!
One with some Tracks with Plugins Already loaded?
I never did that. It’s confusing to me. Wouldnt it save all Tracks to the Same folder?
What I did before was to always have one folder called 1A, then i loaded an empty track, Produced, saved as new Project under new name. Then Renamed 1A to something else , created a new folder - Calling it 1A again and so on.
I will upgrade the cubase on my PC but i have an old macbook that will not run cubase 14, can i leave cubase 8.5 there and use it with the usb license i have ?
I use the mac for multi channel live recording thats why i wanna keep cubase there
Hey so im using cubase for few years now and just lately i started using macros and my life changed..
For some reasons i dont find a lot of information about more advanced macros and want to check with other people.. do you use macros? Any ideas for places to learn more about them or sharing some knowledge?
Hello, I tried to record the new volume plug in curve using the envelope sh per to remotely move it using the audio envelope off the track. This way I automate the volume off the track depending on his law es level. Kind of doing the waves plugin fader riding effect. The thing is that it seems that you can’t write the modulation plugin result on a track…. Any solution ? Thanks
