    Should I Sell an Unused, Uneeded eLicenser?

    I've upgraded from Cubase SL2 & Wavelab 5 running under Windows XP to Cubase 6 & Wavelab 7 running under Windows 7. End result, with a dual boot system I've got 3 Steinberg eLicenser's but all four of my Steinberg products, Cubase SL2, Cubase 6, Wavelab 7 & Groove Agent 3, are on only one. Is...

    Cubase 6 MIDI Question

    Hah! It worked like a dream. What a great improvement over my previous versions. I feel much better now about making the leap in both programs. Thanks again for the help....

    Cubase 6 MIDI Question

    Heck yeah that makes sense. That sounds exactly like what I'm talking about. I was hoping for something simple like that. I'll check it out when I get home from work tonight. Thanks a million!!!!!

    Cubase 6 MIDI Question

    I?ve run Cubase SL2.0 for years and have become accustomed to four ?sub? MIDI/audio channels that accompany each MIDI channel automatically. I never had a real need to add more so don?t know if it?s possible to do so. Cubase 6 doesn?t seem to work this way; once I open up Groove Agent 3...

    Best VST Drums???

    Yeah, I'm getting ready to install 6 now and know there'll be a steep learning curve. As for Groove Agent, I know what you mean about GA1. But then I do LOTS of editing directly in MIDI so rarely ever use the canned routines. Lots of processing necessary too; I'm hoping that GA3 will be a...

    Best VST Drums???

    I've used Groove Agent for about 7 years now and have been very happy with it. Any opinions on their Groove Agent 3? I just received it and plan on installing it this week. Since I finally upgraded from Cubase SL2 to Cubase 6, I figured I'd do the drums also; both Steinberg and all... Over...

    The one that got away!

    I spent about 4 hours working on a project; never hit the "save" button in Cubase. Didn't have auto-save set at any interval. Had a brief power glitch. Restarted the system and checked the pool to find all the files were simply not there... Lost everything. I went straight to Fry's...

    What recording/mixing software are you using?

    Been using Cubase SL 2.0 for about 7 years now but, since I just upgraded my DAW to try out video production, (Quad Core, more memory, 2TB hard drive, Windows 7), I took the plunge and upgraded to Cubase 6 and am anxious to see all the differences as well as the speed improvement in the 64 bit...

    Very first song produced, but some problems..

    Hmmmmmmmmmmmm, that reminds me of my first song. It's hard to tell you what you may have done "wrong" but from my experience, learning the "art", "science", and "magic", of recording & mixing takes a long time. What did you do to produce the final mix? Is each instrument in its own frequency...

    let me see your studio!

    It's not much to look at, I do hang up some dampening material on either side of the desk when I record but for the most part, this is my little corner of the garage. For recording guitar & bass, it works surprisingly well.

    Keeping 2 tracks in proportion to each other......

    I wondered about this concept some time ago and did this little experiment. One fader was set at say -6db and the other at say -3db, link them together and observe that when I move one, the other will move but at a different rate. I presumed this is Cubase's way of keeping the ratio constant...

    Recording bass with guitar amp?

    My experience has been just fine using a guitar amp for bass. I use it all the time into a 5150 head going to a Marshall cabinet since my primary instrument is guitar and I can't afford a bass rig. I run it through the clean channel using very little pre-gain, (3-4), into a Beta 57a which...

    Anyone Use Waves?

    I see I'm really late on this thread but here goes for what it's worth. I date back to Waves Platinum Bundle V5 which only works up to Windows XP. (spent over 2k at the time for that software). It integrates very well into Cubase SL2.0 and Wavelab 5 which I still use. While I did invest...

    Have u ever used a weird recording technique

    For recording guitar, I've got a Marshall 4X12 cabinet and I decided to try and mic each speaker. 4 mic's = two stereo channels. With various effects and EQ settings, it sounded fantastic...... Once! I got lucky that first time with no phase issues but have never been able to duplicate mic...

    Your technique - Line out or mic on your amplifier ? Which one you do ?

    I've got a POD Xt Pro with SPDIF out that I purchased with the intent of keeping the signal clean and all digital. It certainly is clean and has a load of options as you all know but for me in a side by side comparison, nothing beats a mic'd cabinet powered by a good old 100+ watt tube amp...

    Newbie here..microphone cable???

    I know that there are plenty of opinions on this subject from one extreme to the other but for me, I go for what I believe is the best. I've got loads of Monster Cable Studio-Pro 1000 XLR's of all differing lengths. I've tried other cables of varying quality and while they do a basic job, I do...
