Hey folks:

I'm new to home recording and recently puchased Cubase vst 32 v.5 along with Delta's 1010 sound card and audio interface.
I'm now at the point of recording several tracks of drums and guitar and would like to convert these "preliminary" arrangement to cd so I can take them with me (in the car, portable cd player) and think of additional arrangements.
I have an Mac G4 computer with Superdrive and Itunes. But I can't for the life of me, figure out how to convert these partial songs to cd. How do I export them to iTunes so I can burn a cd?
Thanks for the any suggestions you might offer.

I'm not familiar with Macs but I can at least help you get the tunes out of Cubase.

In the Master section of the mixer there is an Export Audio button. The renders the entire song (or sections of it, if you wish) to a stereo file. Hitting that button will open a dialog box that your manual will help you through- its not confusing, I just don't remember what all is there. :)

Then use your CD buring software to make those stereo files into an audio CD.

Take care,
Chris
 
Oooo, yeah, midi tracks are different. You have to take the analog outputs of your midi device (keyboard or sound module, right?) and record them into Cuabse as audio. Then you simply turn off all the midi tracks and mix the new audio tracks (played by the midi device) with the rest of the song and do what I described above.

If you are really maniacal, you can record one midi instrument at a time - each to their own track - and mix in all just like audio, using effects and what not.

Have fun, :)
Chris
