What you are doing is writing for SATB using automatic voice leading in a basic way should be able to print a score for that. Pretty awesome tutorial thanks Andrew.
Wow, Andrew. Good that you found a way for "Chord explode". I think Cubase team should bring "chord explode" in their next Cubase 14 update. It is really helpful.
Very useful video, thanks! I suppose it's just a matter of time before Cubase can follow Baroque style voice leading rules as well along with various user options... Like voice leading quantize.
Thanks a really useful lesson. I knew there must be a catch when Steinberg so dramatically improved the score editor! Thanks to you I now have a Logical Preset to cover it.
Great video, thank you. I thought you could use the function "MIDI --> dissolve parts" to achieve this result but that does not work for separating voices of chords so I learned something new, thanks :) I suggest to add "Chord track: Assign voice to notes" (or similar, I'm on the German version) to your macro. That way you don't even need to have a chord track set up and you don't need to activate the follow chord track function.
Andrew, Killer! This was as exciting to watch as an overtime Super Bowl. Unbelievable (given where we all were post the previous explode for 13 and then the new drop 14, sans the same technique) in terms of turnaround to solve this problem. much appreciation.
I wonder why Steinberg got rid of the explosion function. I didn't even know it was there:) I imagine they are programming something better or similar for the future. Hopefully we'll see it again in Cubase 15. Still the best update since I've been in the Cubase world.
Your vids are always so good. Great info on the explode. And I’d run into the bug you mention where my logical editor presets would only work consistently when I ran them from the window. Thought it was my code. Now I know how to fix them! Sweet!
Andrew, Will watch it later . Will see what the project conversion Ableton to Bitwig to Cubase 14 will result in. It is nice to loop clips in ableton and bring them in arrangement view .
Can you set it up to put the midi for the “exploded” tracks on existing tracks underneath the one that you are running the key command on? Like the “orchestrate” feature in studio one’s harmony wizard add on? I’m also trying to create a macro to create “strums” for midi guitar.
hi dfhm,,, I havent tried to go that far, although there may be a way. My current workflow to do that kind of operation, I have sections of my orchestra already created in a template so when I explode the tracks like this it is very easy to just drag them down into the premade tracks. On the other hand Something you may explore,, Cubase 14 now lets you move tracks that you have selected up or down with key commands,, that could be a quick fix for you as well... andrew
I took a course on the website. I will advise everyone. But there is still little information for me, I want to learn more about Halion. more about sharing with other DAWs. what is possible and what is not
I will wait till Cubase 15. Nothing here vaguely useful for anyone that is not synth based disco dance. I do not use drum machines and synths, if I did they all have most of what is put in this update, Ok the score is useful to some, when I did mess with Cubase Drum fingy it just drove me to use Steven Slate that was way better and easier to use. I then sacked that and learned to play drums. This update is just what can we do to make some more money out one section of users, they should have put other things in to suite all users.
Exceptional tutorial...been using Cubase for 20 years and have learned something
A scholarly piece of useful teaching - well done and thank you.
Thanks a Lot, very usefull for me😊

Your videos are super. Great learning experience. Thanks so much.

As usual, Andrew, top stuff!! 😁

@ apreciate the response.🙏🏻
Any suggestion for strums without manually “slicing” each chord?
On m y side, I've created a nice Logical Editor script that explodes chords the way I need.
I'm not using the voices, but the position of the notes in the chords. That way, I can deal with chords with different numbers of notes.
Killer Feature for killer musicians … IRONIE OFF
The MIDI Pad went backrupt with Cubase Pro.
I took a course on the website. I will advise everyone. But there is still little information for me, I want to learn more about Halion.
more about sharing with other DAWs. what is possible and what is not

I guess i should wait for 15 then 🫡
