Hello everyone, I hope someone has used or is using this combination. I'm really struggling with this.

I'm only wanting to use Cubase as a multi-channel audio recorder, I'm wanting to use the DM2000 to mix on and then output a final stereo mix from that back into Cubase for mastering. This has worked for me in the past using an external hard disk based recorder. Mixing on a Daw just doesn't work for me.

I have audio being transmitted and received between the DM2000 and Cubase, the Cubase click is also coming through, however I cannot get the DM2000 transport/arm controls to control Cubase, and I am if the timecode is actually being sent out by Cubase, I'm not seeing any result on the DM2000.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?
 
9 is a long time ago, and it's moved regularly but you are looking for the MIDI remote manager (well that's what it is now). This enables you to add a MIDI device to do certain things - so it will receive from your other device and send commands the other way too. I use a steinberg panel and it now knows most control devices. I'm not sure if 9 had to be built manually with CC messages.
 
Yeah it's certainly different in 9, I've been trying for 3 or 4 days straight trying to get this to work but I know that someone who knows what they're doing could have a look at it and within 5min solve it. That's what's so annoying. I just want to get back to recording music but can't do that until this is solved. :(
 
Thanks for the link, it reminded me of a page in the DM2000 which asks for the address selection for the MMC and checked that out again. I had matched these addresses up with Cubase, both were set at address 30. Then I decided to change the address on the DM2000 to 127, but as I wound the dial to get there "Any" came flashing up - I selected that and everything started to work!

I can't believe it's working after all this time, and I still don't know what's happened because the addresses were originally matching?!?!

Now all I need to do is figure out how to arm tracks and I'd like to have the timecode display in measures and beats instead of seconds and minutes, but now I can actually start to enjoy learning to use the console because everything seems to communicating now.

Even automix is working recording and playing back fader movement.

Couldn't be happier, thanks for your help!
 
I tried to make sense out of the steinberg setup for my controller, but frankly its a bit above my head. I knew 9 did it, bu5 could not remember where the setup screen was!
 
I know what you mean, it just seems overly complicated to do the most basic things at times and I think it comes down to how much configurability you've got in both Cubase and these controllers. It's really easy to start messing around with settings which aren't anything to do with your problem, but you feel the need to change settings because you're desperate to get something to work. All the time you've just messed something else up and stopped something else from working. :ROFLMAO:
