Hello Chris, thanks again for a great video. I use the technique of narrowing the stereo image when using drum vst instruments. Those vst drum instruments often try to place the drums in the complete stereo area. By narrowing the stereo image the drumkit get its own position so I can place the other instruments on there own spot.
Hi Chris. Im using cubase 10.5 and My bus channel disables panning capability wen I route my instrument to it. For example; I created a mix channel and routed all my vocals to it but there no option to pan the individual vocal tracks. I really need help. Thanks.
Hi I know that I'm super late on this video but I was just wondering is the stereo panning and different Cubase panning molds only for pro versions I have Cubase 13 elements
Hi Chris I wanted to ask you if you know a practical method to make the Autopan effect feel even in mono I am mixing a Heavy metal track, the guitarist has inserted an autopan to make the Clean guitar intro more interesting My problem is that naturally in stereo feel the effect, but when I step in mono to check phase and monocompatibilità, the effect disappears This is logical because it is a physical phenomenon, but do you think there is a method with Cubase 11 to force this phenomenon? I want autopan effect even when listening mono I hope you can help me Thank you
Thanks Chris,I just have one question: Can we automate the “Stereo Combined Panner” value? I don’t have Cubase yet as I’m a Logic and Pro Tools user but I plan to switch to Cubase for mixing, your videos have helped me a lot in this switching process
Hi Chris, some times the panning is not showing on the track, and I can't pan. I experience this in some drums recording the I did. Any suggestions please? Thank you
Thanks Chris for the great Video. Just a quick question. When you centre both the Left and Right signals making it Mono, does it increase the volume as well?
Hi Chris,i just wanna know if you start recording from scratch using your mix template or use the template after completing working on your stems from a different session then bounce them into your mix template?. i find that when pulling up my template from the onset and then adding sythesizers and others, Cubase gets burdened a lot because the template already has many effects and busses created in it, and so it crashes.I tell you Chris cubase crashes all the time and because of this i have only been able to complete 3 songs in seven years..When u add or remove an effect or synth or anything it crashes,i have to pray before i do something to it and i have tried all diagnostics before,they work for a while then back again. Am thinkin of buying a different daw,but i have studied and spent money on cubase courses for years and itll be such a waste.if you can just answer me on the template question pls.Thanks man
I know this is a bit old of a video now. But @ the 4:20 mark, you have the audio panning back and fourth as it plays. I realize that is because you are changing the panning settings real time as the video plays. But how do I do that so, that when an audio clip plays it pans back and fourth like that? I am also now using Cubase like you. But I came from other software. where that was very, very easy to do on the timeline to the clip. With sliders that would allow you to pan a clip left to right, right on the clip itself. But in Cubase, it is driving me absoutlely bananas!!!! Because I cannot figure out how to do this... Or even the proper term to call it to try and l.ook it up. I swear, Cubase is awesome in a lot of ways. But in others, it makes things that should be super simple absolutely un intuitive!
When recording a digital piano I have two outputs on the back for L & R and I find that if I record a piano part that I want to use in mono in my mix panned mostly left or mostly right, it sounds better recording the piano in stereo and panning the entire stereo track together as opposed to just recording one mono output from the piano and panning that. I suppose this is the same thing that you speak about in the video when using a virtual piano VST and panning it off to the side right?
Hello. Awesome channel and new subscriber here! I have a question. I have been recording my own stuff using cheap softwears for over 5 years now and, pretty easy when I am recording everything on my own, by all means I am no pro and don't I will ever be as I only produce for my own projects. More into LoFi stuff. Today I recorded with a project band im with in a studio, we listened to the track on the producers speaker and it was fine but when i got home listenning to the master WAV file, the first guitar was panned to the left and 2nd one was to the right. I was wondering how to render the audio to make it sound like there is no panning going on? Maybe combine the audios to creat a full sound. Im not even sure if im describing this correctly tbh. But please if u have any tips at all about this.
Hello Cris, Great video, for me i have a problem with cubase 10 when i group together for example drums....i lose my panning abilaty in my tracks. can you explain why that is? greet Wilfred and please exuse me if my spelling is not so correct.
Hi Chris another great video, I have a panning issue that I just discovered in Cubase. Lets say you have a steady Rock rym gtr mono track panned 100% Left and a mono Lead vocal track panned center dry no effects on both tracks dry. When playing back only the two tracks the vocal does not sound in the center I have to pan the vocal track about L22 to make it sound in the center. I discovered this because I have a blues song that starts out with just rym guitar panned L and vocals only. I'm using cubase 10 , uad apollo x6 and apollo twin duo I also monitored this with my Focal 50s and Focal headphones and my sony pro headphone. This is driving me crazy! I also tried channel phase on and off too. I should not have to pan the vocals to make it sound center. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your time. Billy
Hello Billy, hard to say since I don't have your session in front of me. If you have one signal center and the other one far right, your mix will sound more to the right since there's more energy going on there but the vocal will still sound in the center.
Hello Chris, thank you very much for the great video! This is really helpful :) l wonder if you can help me to figure something. I'm try to mix in the box and out of the box by sending the channels for a analog mixer, but l am having a problem! When l try to export the mixdown l dont have the stereo out to export all track in one channel, Is a bit confuse. Would you make a video explaining how to mix in digital and analog at the same time and how to export the track when is done. That would be awesome :) Thanks a lot Chris keep up with the good work. Best regards leo
Hey Leo, your problem can be your Connection configuration setup (F4). Now It's hard to troubleshoot when I don't see what you're doing but here is a video I did last year ( I think) on using analog gear in Cubase ruclips.net/video/ZCdOp4JpY18/видео.html
Chris Selim - Mixdown Online Hi again Chris, thanks a lot for your help, the video you made last year really helped me out to figure something! Thank you very much :)
Thanks Chris! For a stereo channel (like keyboard) could I pan the channel before the send without losing info? For the two guitars could I move each one to position? What about project setup-> stereo pan law, it's set on equal power.
Same here !!! i will try the vst connect se en transit first since it's free. En tout cas merci pour ta chaine... toujours sympa de partager des moments Cubase avec toi.
I've got a question: if you narrow the image of a stereo track so that the L signal and R signal are both exactly in the centre, does that give you a mono track? I.e., would you encounter the same potential phasing issues you'd have by monoing a stereo track?
@@mixdownonline Thanks! So if I wanted to pan a stereo pad, would I be better off splitting it into 2 mono channels and then pan those instead of monoing the stereo channel? To avoid phasing issues
@@femtoplankton No, not at all. Phasing issue will occur when you record a source with more than one microphone. The relation between those microphones and the source will have to be "in phase" to avoid phase issues. A PAD sound from a VSTi is usually stereo to start with, so don't worry about Phase issues, you're not gonna have any.
@@mixdownonline Thanks again for the clarification. My pad is not VST, it's a Juno 60 recorded in stereo directly into DAW. So in this case I take it I could just collapse the stereo track into mono and no phasing would occur right?
When i try to select the panning mode placing the mouse on the triangle i see the sign "select panner" but when i click on it, it doesn't respond. Does anybody know what may be the reason? Could it be because i have cubase elements and not the pro version?
Great stuff. Been following your channel for a while now. Im just wondering...do you offer a mix critique service where i could send you my song and you provide feedback for a fee of course. Or do you know anybody experienced like yourself who offers such a service. Thankyou in advance :)
Thank you! Exactly what I needed to understand!
Glad it helped!
merci beaucoup Chris I do work with cubase since 2004 and I never knew that. I have just tried it and I got a good result on my vocals God bless you

Best explanation I have ever heard! thanks
Very useful information. Simple but not so obvious to find...
Glad it was helpful!
Excellent trick, Chris. Your tips on hidden functions of Cubase are super useful. Thanks!
You're welcome!
Well. I simply didn’t know that at all. Thank you Chris for show some light in our dark paths.
You're welcome!
Thanks from Brazil.
You are the best!!!
Happy to help!
Hi Chris here after watching you on CW yesterday. thanks subbed ya!
Great information for starting cubase users like myself!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Awesome stuff.
Thank you very much.
Thank you for this tutorial 👍👍❤️

Oh, awesome :-)
Great video Chris, been forever! :)

Of course!

Thanks a lot. i missed this having come from pro tools because i wanted to reverse the reverb on my guitars(a trick from Warren Huart)
Hi Chris, some times the panning is not showing on the track, and I can't pan. I experience this in some drums recording the I did. Any suggestions please?
Thank you
Thanks Chris for the great Video. Just a quick question. When you centre both the Left and Right signals making it Mono, does it increase the volume as well?
Did the original mono guitar tracks have any effects when they where recorded in mono? They sound great.
Are there pan modes for the send pan knob?

Chris please explain "Stereo Dual Panner (Remote Devices Only)" for us.
Hey nice Video. Is this a Cubase Pro Feature?
Yes, I think this one is only available on the Pro version
Okay Thank you :)
Problem solved thanks a lot

What I'll do if make a video on Automation when I'll get back from vacation. I will help you to clear up the confusion :)
@@mixdownonline that would be absolutely fantastic! 😁👍

Yes, that's what I mean however, it doesn't mean that your piano will sound better this way...try both ways and pick what sound's best to you.

That's probably because you routed your tracks to a MONO Group instead of a Stereo one

I'ts a new band from Ottawa called MaxHill. Working on their first EP. Still in the Recording phase right now!

2:28 I don't see this in Cubase 9.5 Artist. I don't seem to have a panning mode available. Am I doing something wrong?
I just noticed that this one is available on the Pro version only :-(
Thanks Chris! For a stereo channel (like keyboard) could I pan the channel before the send without losing info? For the two guitars could I move each one to position? What about project setup-> stereo pan law, it's set on equal power.
Hi Chris, may be next time a video on VST Connect Pro?
First I will have to work VST Connect pro! Never had a chance to work with it yet
Same here !!! i will try the vst connect se en transit first since it's free. En tout cas merci pour ta chaine... toujours sympa de partager des moments Cubase avec toi.
Merci à toi mon ami!

Chris, How to pan forward and backward ??
What do you mean? Panning is left and right
CC 7 volume. More=forward-closer. Less=backward-further. Listener's perception.
wow.
When i try to select the panning mode placing the mouse on the triangle i see the sign "select panner" but when i click on it, it doesn't respond. Does anybody know what may be the reason? Could it be because i have cubase elements and not the pro version?
Yes, that is exactly it. Elements don't have that option

Hey Darren, yes I do, hit me by email chris@mixdown.online
Chris Selim - Mixdown Online will do .cheers
Thanks Man... ps. Where Is Cubase 10 Come on Steinberg
Lol... Should me out before the end of the year!
As if this is only available in Pro.. I was about to upgrade to Artist this is a deal breaker made me angry now im moving to Ableton
