HI,
Is it possible to transfer a regular music midi file (like would be downloaded on a midi site) and set it up in a program like Cubase to put "real" samples to? I would like to write a bass line in a music notation program, then turn it to a midi file, and then transfer that to Cubase to put a nice bass sample to.
 
Okay, so to do this, I would like to use the notation software that I already know, which is NOteworthy Composer. If I have to change, I will. I assume I will just open up a Cubase session like usual and just import the file?
 
Yes. Also dont forget to install your cubase GM player (cubase music player or something like that, its on the DVD under additional plugins)
 
My (hopefully) last question about this:

Is it possible for me to write multiple parts in the same midi song (such as drums, bass, guitar, etc), and add them all as one file to Cubase and sample them all at once?

Sorry for all these questions, I just don't want to make sure these ideas are possible before I go to a bunch of work.

The term 'sample' usually refers to audio, and yes you can do that by exporting the finished song to a .wav file.

If you're asking if it's possible to render a new midi file from the added tracks the answer is also yes. Read your Cubase manual to find out how the different types of midi files are created and what they consist of.
