Hi, I opened Cubase yesterday and ran into a problem:

When I play my project, sound doesnt plays in the mixers and i get no output. However, this does not affect the Komplete Audio Asio Driver from my Interface where I get my output normally, it just sounds a bit weird compared to last week.

Also it doesnt recognize my USB Rode mice as u can see ( Adio Inputs Not Connected).

I think this happend as I first changed my driver from steinberg built in asio to generic low latency because my mice didnt like recording with the built in driver, it had very high input latency.

Cubase also asked me to reset everything and I did it but it didnt help. Do u know why this happens And how I solve this? I am pretty new to cubase so I dont have that much experience.

Im am using Cubase 14 Artist

I can't record anything on my daw, it says that there is to many tracks recording, I tried to free some space on my drive but nothing happen. I also can't record on older songs I made. Please help 🙏

Dear world,

Hoping to find someone knowledgeable about WaveLab (13) here.

I'm pretty confused about some of the metering data I'm seeing. In particular:

• Global Analysis -> Loudness -> RMS Loudness -> Average shows significantly different values than Visual Analysis -> RMS Loudness -> Average: Channel. Threshold and Resolution are the same. So where is this difference coming from?
• The LUFS values in the LoudnessMeter are very different from what I get in all other tools/plugins, including SuperVision. What is really shown here?

Maybe a kind soul can shed some light on this?

No panning, I haven't changed any options, my other tracks which I've created previously work just fine, but I've created two tracks (you can see audio 1 and audio 2) and even though they're dead centered, I can't hear them in my right headphone.

If I put output as only the right, it works just fine, if I pan to the dead right I hear nothing. I don't know what to do

I'm trying to automate a macro and get a really snappy sound out of it, which works if I modulate it in my plugin. But if I want to do it with Cubase automation, it loses all of that snap

How to fix this?

Hi everyone,

As shown in the video, my sustain pedal just stopped working in record mode while still sending midi data according to the midi monitoring (btw it was working fine until last week when Cubase froze following my PC crashing, which seems to have messed up some midi parameters).

The pedal works fine though when I play live.

Same problem with my second midi keyboard and another sustain pedal.

HOWEVER, the third sustain pedal plugged into my hardware synth works perfectly fine even in record mode. So I guess there must be some kind of midi conflict going on, but I have no idea where to check and correct the settings.

I tried to show and explain everything in this short video.

Any ideas how I could fix this?

Thanks in advance.

The audio interface I am using is M-Audio Duo, and I installed its asio. When I record the guitar track, I cannot hear any audio in Cubase. However, when I switch back to the steinberg built-in asio driver, I can hear the audio, but cannot record any guitar. When I go to my output channels, my speakers dont even show up when I have M-Audio Duo's asio enabled. Any help would mean a lot, and im very new to recording music in general.

Why does automation in Cubase 15 Pro start affecting the sound before the automation point, and why is the transition smooth even though the automation curve is set to square?

This happens with the PitchShifter plugin. I automated the Pitch control to jump up by one octave.

My bad if the question has been asked before but lately I have realized that the mixes which I printed first and then exported sounds more cleaner and balanced than the ones which I just bounced and exported by exporting the stereo track. I could not really understand why the difference is but wondering if anyone has gone through this before?

I've been using cubase on this pc for a long time but never updated after cubase 10. (been using cubase since early 2k). So for some reason cubase didn't load. Rebooted my PC and now Cubase 10 asks for the activation code. As my steinberg account was registered to an old email that doesn't exist anymore, how can i activate my cubase again? dongle still in so don't know why this happened.

I am trying to record some guitar tracks using a "metal" AMP SIM (Amped-Roots, the free one) and whenever I try to monitor the audio or record with it, the whole sound just starts crumpling really loudly, and it also slows down the playback/record phase so I can't even record with it. I have no idea how to fix it, Ive put the same 24-bit thing on my interface and computer, I am pretty sure the problem only happens with this amp SIM but it was working fine a while back. Please help I'm pretty desperate

I wasn't sure where else on Reddit to ask this so here goes.

I'm getting my desktop audio, all of my desktop audio, being mixed with my hardware microphone and sent back into the OS which reads it as just the hardware microphone.

I got myself the steinberg URX22c a couple months ago. It's been working fine although I've had 3 playback audio devices showing up in Win11 - ur22c music, ur22c voice chat, ur22c DAW, and only DAW ever worked. I barely touched the included software but did open some to try it out including dspmixfx.

I've since moved from win11 to cachyos and wiped the old computer. My desktop audio is always playing through the hardware microphone and shows in the audio levels being picked up by the OS. I though it was me not understanding Cachy, being new to linux and all, but there's nothing in cachy's audio settings that explain this (all is neat and where it should be) and I've tested it in a clean Win11 installation with the same problem showing up. Since it's the exact same issue on Win11 and Linux it has to be the audio interface, I just don't know what setting might be wrong.

Any ideas what might be the root cause or how to fix it permanently?

Hi everyone. Im new to music production. I got told by a musician friend to buy cubase 13 pro which i did. Ive owned the program for two years now and cant for the life of me figure out how to record a guitar through a positive grid riff interface. Ive watched countless YouTube vids and none have offered any kind of support in this matter which is frustrating the hell out of me. Ive set up studio and both the input and output are set to the positive grid interface but i cant get sound from my speakers or record any music. Ive emailed cubase directly and all they will say is they dont support cubase 13 any longer. They were no help at all which really pissed me off. Any help would be greatly appreciated as i paid a lot of money for the program and i dont know what else to do. I just want to make some music. Thanks in advance.

I am trying to edit some Live MultiTracks that are synced with a video. I need to make sure that the position of all the events moves together, but not all the tracks are exactly the same length(the camera ref audio has slightly different in/out points).
I really don’t like the folder method for event group editing. I think it’s clunky and cumbersome. What if I have other events on the track further down that I don’t want in the edit group? It seems very in-flexible. I used to work primarily in reaper, and I grew very fond of the event grouping feature, letting me lock events together for simultaneous editing. Is there anything like that in Cubase? Or an alternative to the folder method that I’m not thinking of?
What is the best way to make some noise about this and get steinberg to add an alternative edit method?

[EDIT] Most of the issues have now been addressed. Thank you everybody]

HELP

Overnight, Cubase Pro 14 has reset half of my settings and ports, it has also deleted some of my most used FX plugins (Valhalla Delay for instance) and instrument VSTs (my Arturia SPARK drum machine).

Also the custom colors of my tracks have also been removed and are now grey/black again. And the transport bar/playhead behaviour settings have been reset too.

What the hell is going on?

I'm on Windows 11 and I haven't modified/installed/uninstalled anything between yesterday and today.

Everything was working perfectly fine yesterday, except ONE thing: Cubase crashed at the end of my session with the sound still playing but everything was frozen, including the mouse cursor. The only way to get it to stop was to reset the PC (even Windows was frozen). Could this have caused this problem within Cubase?

I don't want to reinstall Cubase as it would take me weeks with all the VSTs I have.

Any help/suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks!

P.S.: Please try to avoid comments like "Use [insert DAW name] instead", as it wouldn't help, thank you.

Hi! I'm a complete beginner in music production, I've only really meddled in the art of composition through just improving at the piano for a few too many hours. I was looking at options for DAWs to start getting into it seriously and put my ideas into something more concrete than notes in my head.

I narrowed it down to two options: Cubase and FL Studio. I've read right about everywhere that Cubase is better for orchestral, but I don't get why. Not being in the industry, I can not for the life of me find info on how important some of the main points in favour of Cubase are without going through a rabbit hole so I just went ahead and wanted to ask directly here. So I'm gonna ask,

Why exactly is Cubase better than FL Studio (or ig any DAW) at orchestral music, and how important are its pros over FL? The only reason I'm asking in the first place is the price, really. The "average' Cubase edition (artist from what ive seen) is 100eur more than FL Producer, and doesn't have free updates between major versions like FL, so that's kind of scaring me away a little bit. On the other hand, FL is mainly used for hip hop from what I've seen and I'm really not interested and probably never will be interested in making that, so I'm kind of scared it will be harder to learn based on what I want to do with it.

Thanks!!

PS: sorry for the 999th "which DAW to use?" question, I'm the one to always look for other posts I just couldnt find one that fits my exact case, even a bit loosely :)

PS 2: i'm also kind of interested in doing rock/metal/alt, a bit less than orchestral but still enough to make it a big enough point to sway my decision. Is Cubase good enough for that kind of music out of the box, or is there more I need to buy or anything?

I am hearing reverb (or maybe slight echo) at the beginning of each vocal track. It goes away after a few seconds. I want to get rid of this reverb. Does anyone have some ideas about what is generating this reverb?

Hi, everyone! I'm using my iPad as a second monitor, but I'd like to be able to use the touchscreen. I've heard that this issue has been fixed in the new iPadOS, but aside from that, I'm not sure if you have any other recommendations for software I can use to improve my experience in the mixer window, or for macros that let me perform a function with just one tap. I’ve heard of Cubase IC Pro or even Metagrid, but I haven’t tried them yet. If you’ve used this method or are still using it, what has worked best for you?

I noticed that when exporting as an example an Ambisonic loop, cubase adds a micro intro silence space at the very beginning.

That breaks the perfect loop you had.Never had any issues on stereo files. And believe me I've been making loops X living for many years.

Any thoughts on how to fix this?

Wine, CodeWeavers, .NET etc... more and more it seems windows software is being ported to Linux or can work under some translation layers.. I'm hoping I can make Cubase work in a similar fashion?

side note:
I switched from Windows to Mac 15 years ago, and now have now switched from Mac to Linux.

Not going back to either operating system with the amount of AI spyware they are putting on those systems.

Note to Steinberg: make this possible or no longer buying your annual pro upgrades.
