    Sometimes as someone who knows theory well, it's hard to keep coming up with new and interesting lines.
    This feature means when I'm stuck or bored, I can forget everything I know bash random keys and see what happens, super cool, an extra weapon.

      Even though the key helper in FL Studio is useful, it's very basic and annoying to use compared to this. I've been an FL Studio user for over a decade but I'm seriously considering switching to Cubase. FL Studio is very gimmicky and tacky and feels limited after a while.

      @@djnaydee Yeah, FL Studio is really unique in its workflow. I like the fact that you can place anything anywhere on the arrangement window, but the pattern system is really annoying. If they got rid of the pattern system in FL Studio it would be so much better in my opinion. Also, a lot of the plugins seem really cheap, gimmicky or overly complex in FL Studio. However, you can't beat FL's piano roll for speed.

  • @camelCased
    @camelCased 4 года назад +5

    There's a catch - to be able to play with a tune you need to know what scale the tune is in, and you have to know some music theory to determine that. What's worse - some tunes change scales between chorus and verse or "just because we can", so it's not that easy. But still, a great tool to have lots of fun and inspiration.

      exactly... unless you abuse the chord track with all your key modulations
      oh you have to reset the key in the key editor every time it is opened...

    • @brianmi40
      @brianmi40 3 года назад

      No "catch" at all. And playing "with a tune" implies playing along with something you didn't write, whereas most people starting to use a DAW are either writing their own chord progressions (and therefore know what chords went in along with the key used), or are using loops (which most identify the key in their name), or remixing something like a bit from a pop song, where song keys (and chord progressions) are easily found on many web sites (including free web sites like GetSongKey.com, AudioKeyChain.com, etc. where you can upload any .wav file and it will tell you the key center, or Chordify.net, where it will tell you the chords in any song.
      Most people that are interested in making music it turns out also have decent or better relative pitch detection (not perfect pitch, but relative pitch: being able to better recognize the distance between notes to pick out a melody, or hear "off" notes). And so, most people shown how a scale is constructed of half and whole tone steps, can loop a section of music and find the relevant notes to define it down to a key or two (Major or Relative Minor).
      So, all that failing, there are then fully automated tools, including things like Scaler (better than Cubase for chords for Noobs), Traktor Pro, deCoda, NNxT in Reason or Reason Rack, Hornet Songkey ($13), Serato Sample, just to name a few, which ALL will just tell you key of any audio fed into them.
      And lastly, guitarists can simply hold a tuner in front of their speaker and just play bits of the audio to write down the notes it displays as a starting point for determining a key center from any audio.
      Any serious musician will also tell you that figuring out the key, as well as then transcribing melodies, rhythms and chords *IS* the path to truly learning to understand music in depth. Even if you go learn formal music theory, you are going to be asked, or realize on your own along the way that you need to figure out what others have done, and rightly should in the genre that interests the person so that they start to learn the "language" of that idiom. So the sooner anyone gets started down that path, the better as it becomes part of their training to develop strong Relative Pitch (which CAN be taught, whereas Perfect Pitch CANNOT).
      Lastly, anyone "playing around" with music will already know, or quickly learn about "key changes can happen", and usually can break down any material into verse and chorus sections and use detection on those separately to learn the two (or more) keys involved., Because no one's going to start out writing Modal Chord Progressions without some serious study or training...

Also I would like to know if you can do the very same in Cubase 12 just like you did in Cubase 11? Please respond to this message. I would truly appreciate if you could. Again I wish continued success in all of your musical videos. Please keep sharing your knowledge of Cubase with us all. Have a wonderful day and week.

  • @ShaharHarshuv
    @ShaharHarshuv 4 года назад

    @Cubase I want to propose an improvement. The snap-to-scale feature is nice, but it always snaps the key UP when sometimes you want it to snap down. Let's say I want to play only on the white keys (for example, for a glissando) but I want it to be played in Eb major. The way it works now, E natural will be fixed to F, but F will stay F. That will result is a pentatonic scale instead of the Eb major scale. I could be nice if this could be configurable.
    Also - the chord assistant automatically suggested D# when I played Eb. Considering D# has 5 sharps and 2 double sharps but Eb has only 3 flats, I think it should be programmed to suggest Eb. The only scale that has the exact number of sharps and flats (in which you should give both options) is Eb/D#.
    When selecting Eb I expect the note names in the piano roll to display flats instead of sharps too. Also this should be configurable in a click of a button. I know I can program it to "follow chord track" in the preferences but it's not always comfortable to do so.

For me.. in rhis regards.. Cubase is like a Ferrari but to switch gears you need to turn to to the back seat. There are loooots of things you can do with Stretchable groups of Notes. I Know Steinberg has no difficulty to implement this but do not understand. Any Pro would tell you .. this is a must have.. and a Top Feature.. Otherwise you are pretty much cinstrained and limited.

I would love to know the settings or the presets that you use in Retrolouge to make those wonderful Bass note sounds. If you would, would you please let me know the name of the preset that you are using for your bass notes. I would really appreciate it if you would pass that information on to me. I am not very knowledgeable with how to get around that instrument but, I love how you use it. I am trying to learn how to duplicate some of the sounds that your create in some of your videos. You make your music sound so great. You are an amazing musician. You play several instruments very well, you have a wonderful voice and you know a lot about engineering. Plus your knowledge of Cubase is just off the charts. I am so glad that you are sharing so much of your gifts we us. Now, I am like a sponge, trying to get all of the knowledge I can from you and your videos. I do wish you continued success with all of your videos, projects, and your music career. I also wish you continued success financially as well. You motivate me to become much better at my craft. I do hope that you get a chance to view a few of my questions and I hope that you will be able to answer a few of my questions in the very near future. Have a wonderful day and thank you again for all that you do in helping us with our musical growth.

    'Without musical theory knowledge', ok.. so what is a scale, something I need assistance with?

      When you do not need to apply anything directly, but merely need definitions and references, to come back and use for the application... Then that is less about music theory knowledge.
      ...It actually falls under the #2021WebSearchTheoryPrecedence for "Music Scale":

      You shouldn't be getting anywhere near a DAW until you've at least watched a bunch of RUclips videos on topics like:
      1. basics of music (pitch, harmony, rhythm)
      2. basics of music theory
      3. basics of musical keys (diatonic and non-diatonic chords)
      4. basics of writing chord progressions
      5. basic melody writing
      If learning that stuff is FUN (when well taught...) or at least very interesting for you, you're a strong candidate to get into writing or producing music as a hobby and will be ready to start with something like Cubase Elements, which, after owning and using 5 different DAWs, is my top pick with what they've added in version 11 for noobs)... if not, time to look for another hobby...

    You did know you should center your part around G (the tonic) when you played. But a nice feature anyway

    • @brianmi40
      @brianmi40 3 года назад

      To paraphrase Hans Zimmer (Cubase user), they guys that are fully up on and using their theory aren't the guys coming up with the completely new stuff; it's the kid out in the sticks who doesn't "know the rules" and breaks them in a new and musically interesting way.
      So, no, parts do NOT need to center around the tonic.

    The problem with Cubase's scale and chord stuff is its to damn hard to figure out. That circle of chord thing that pops up. Years now and I still dont know how to use it. I've watched videos on all this stuff (really boring videos btw) and I still cant figure it out. When I have used this stuff I just get Twee sounding nonsense - you know literally elevator style music. And that Chord track - Not a clue, never been able to get a thing out of it.

      Use transpose key on your MIDI keyboard to step up/down pitch to set C to whatever starting note of your key (or set A if in Minor key), and you'll be happily banging away on just the white keys...

    There is no need to fear these innovations - if one cannot differentiate the output of these tools from that of talented human composers, then there is a bigger problem. On the other hand, if these tools can help one create great music, I don't see the problem.

  • @fcf8269
    @fcf8269 4 года назад

    The thing that worry me is that Cubase make it easier to write music without any knowledge of theory. This is a great aid for people that know theory and want to get things easier on their side; but it is a very dangerous tool for people that have 0 experience and knowledge, and let them think that the software can basically do everything for them. I am more in favor of tools that help knowledgeable people to work faster and better; because we already have millions of wannabe musicians and producers that just like app store developers, make a ton of sub average compositions that just drown the good composers and musicians that actually spent years learning how to play an instrument and how to compose and arrange on books and classes.

    • @brianmi40
      @brianmi40 3 года назад

      What exactly is wrong with people having fun with music without the need to master theory? There's nothing "dangerous" about a person having FUN that hurts no one else, and posting it on Bandcamp for no one but family members to ever listen to. The software is not "doing everything" for them. It isn't picking the key, or the chords, or writing a melody. Relax.
      Because many people get HOOKED on something that's fun, and then decide to take it to the next level and actually study things like theory, otherwise they remain an irrelevant hobbyist with no audience.
      But if everyone HAD to start out in music by having to learn ALL their scales and the modes before writing anything (as my mother, a piano teacher for decades had to), we would have a LOT fewer hit songs. And for CERTAIN, nobody writing crap that gets posted on Bandcamp for their family to hear is taking even a DIME out of the pocket of knowledgeable and talented composers because the fact is, that even knowing all the theory in the world doesn't mean you can write anything worth listening to.
