Here's a problem that has stymied me and many others who've witnessed it via remotes and MP4 clips. Any help would be much appreciated!
In Cubase Range Editing, the following procedures produce phantom events (silent “notes”) that resemble muted notes, but are not (they can’t be unmuted with the mute tool). These appear well within all the tracks’ timeline ranges.
Global Copy:I set the left and right locators, go to Range > Global Copy; I place the cursor where I want to insert the segment in the project (which should also move all subsequent events to the right of course). Instead, when I paste the segment, the result is spectacular – it overlays not only the selected segment (without moving anything), but also the rest of the whole project, with phantom “notes” that replicate much of the rest of the project, but don’t sound.
I try Global Copy, setting the range for my selection to copy, activating “Global Copy,” and placing the cursor at the end of the piece (where I want to selected copy to appear. (see attached JPG – 1). Then I paste, and the results are spectacular (see attached JPG – 2). The selected segment appears at the cursor (that’s good), but also most of the rest of the entire project, before and after the selected segment, appears to the left and right of the copied selected segment – hundreds of white phantom notes).
Next, I again set the left and right locators, go to Range > Global Copy, and I place the cursor where I want to insert the segment in the “middle” of the project (which should also move all subsequent events to the right of course). Instead, when I paste the segment, the result is as before – it overlays not only the selected segment (without moving anything), but also most of the rest of the project, with phantom “notes” that replicate much of the rest of the project, but don’t sound.
Paste Time: I place the left and right locators to indicate the amount of time I want to insert at the location of the left locator (which should also move all subsequent events to the right), and choose Paste Time in the Range pull-down. Instead of doing this, nothing moves, and the project is overlayed with phantoms.
These are not muted notes: In fact, they’re not notes at all – there’s no way to make them sound. As you can see, they can’t be unmuted with the mute tool. If inserted elsewhere in the project, in another project, or in a new project, nothing can make them sound.
Over the last nine months, I have downloaded new “copies” of Cubase more than a dozen times (versions 9.5, 10, 10.5 and 11).
Sweetwater reformatted all my drives, a new copy of Windows was installed, and Cubase loaded onto the “virgin” PC. Same results, regardless of the VSTs loaded.
Steinberg worked on this for months, with no solution. Has anyone seen this before?
Thanks!
