Thank God your video exists because the main tutorial is so vague! You have saved us all here!
*This video is a miracle.* I've needed this information for months now. I ventured into home recording about four months ago, and I bought Cubase Elements and GGD Invasion because I was extremely impressed with the videos/tracks Misha Mansoor made. It's been a very difficult journey so far (I was a slow learner). GGD support really went out of their way to help me, but the person wasn't a Cubase user and wasn't able to go as in-depth as Krzysztof does here.
D O thanks for the kind words! Really glad I could help out! My next video will tackle a memory saving/sparing trick for using Neural DSP VST amp sims, but it’ll be applicable to other amp sims as well. And again thanks for the sub and the feedback!
Cheers for the help matey! Really useful video! I'm doing a uni assignment and this has helped massively!
Ryan Lee Jodrell thanks I could help, bro! Glad it’s helped!
The way this is converted to audio files works fine, but there's an alternative way to do it that, IMO, is much faster. Rather than creating all those Output busses and then doing all that routing, you can do an Audio Mixdown and export multiple channels and then select the VST instrument tracks directly. It will bounce all them down into individual files which you can import and Cubase will automatically create audio tracks for them.
Very useful video! I was struggling with Kontakt routing system but you made it clear. Thank you very much Krysztof!
Lorenzo, just glad I could help. It's very hard to find in depth guides for Kontakt, so I figured I'd just make my own damn video! There's lots of great features in Cubase (and kontakt) but I find that there's a general lack of great tutorials on it. Even this one could do with some clean up. Not sure what to tackle next. Any ideas?
Thank you so much for creating this video! I refer to this video all the time. Cheers!
Thank you so much KS for this. I walked thru it before find this but this is much better.
Just glad I could help man! Wanna see more similar tutorials? Maybe like CPU saving tricks for using VST amp sims? Or template creation
@@KrzychoStal For me, I'm re-watching Misha videos a lot. I think his methods and sound are awesome. If you think you can further replicate his set up (minus non-cubase plug-ins unless you have Smash/Grab) that would be great. Maybe just focus on his drum mix which is just icing. In fact, I'll will probably donate some money. Hella time saver.
GGD said the template is on Facebook but not (ever) a member.
This was extremely helpful. I'm so glad I found you. I hope in the future you could make a mixing tutorial for Invasion as well.
I am not an a level yet where I'd be comfortable telling anyone how to mix!
Awesome. Subscribed. 🤘🤘🤘
Martin Murry thanks a ton! Means a lot!
Thank you so much for this tutorial. With your help I finally got the GGD P4 kit to output sound of different drums to different outputs. I've tried to get that for hours now... somehow Mishas video was too fast for me (I guess). You've probably saved me hours of trial and error troubleshooting since I still do not entirely know where I made my mistake before... Thank you again!
Man, just glad I could help my dude! Not knocking Nolly/Misha at all I've just found that exact thing with their tutorials; they really gloss over some steps and Kontakt Documentation isn't really up to snuff so there's huge gaps. Thanks for watching it and commenting! Glad it helped!
Thank you man! Was very helpful!
Thanks for letting me know it's still helpful. Just glad it was useful!
Very helpful, thank you
Thanks I could help bro!
nice, best guide for me 👍
You are a god. Appreciate you so much.
Thanks for this video man : )
So glad it helped!
thank you very helpful
Used your download. Many thanks
Thanks dude. I'm gonna give this a go.
Mehdi Syed Riaz just glad I could help! What kind of stuff are you usually writing? Always interested to hear what other people are doing!
@@KrzychoStal not writing much. But just covers and learning mixing and all. I've got a few covers on my channel. Nothing worth checking out though 🤣
@@maddyriaz Na man all covers are worth it. Dialogue with the Stars is done great! One of the songs that got me into IF back in the day!
@@KrzychoStal thanks mate :) really appreciate
This video really helped me understand the routing, thank you dude. I have a issue though, I get that problem with the cymbals tracks all routing to just hats, and whenever I change them they all change to whatever I select.
Riffa22 hey man! First of all thanks for watching. That multiple selection issue is a giant PITA! As far as I’ve found there’s no 100% way to avoid it. What you have to sow when it pops up, basically, is that you’ll notice all the cymbal tracks are “highlighted”. You have to click around the bottom/sides of any one of the tracks (around where the channel drop down is) until only that single track is “highlighted” then it’ll let you route individually after that
@@KrzychoStal NO NO, Thank YOU! lol seriously though thank you so much, this really had me scratching my head for a while there lol so its almost like there is this weird hidden "link"setting for the routing. Hopefully they'll be able to patch it
Riffa22 hopefully! Just glad it helped someone out!
Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
dude this is amazing!! by any chance do you have a template for the other drum library's? Thank you so much!
Miguel Owls unfortunately I don’t as I only own Invasion. Otherwise I’d have done much the same as well!
Dang! Thanks for the reply great video man!
so what would you recommend if i have cubase elements and a max number of instrument tracks is 24? it wont add more than 12 busses.
Hey! Went to the shared folder and is there a way for you make each of the files in the .rar available individually? Thanks a TON for this video!
Will the same work with the GGD Classic Rock VST? Theoretically it should just with less channels but the rest is the same am I right?
So what's the difference between stereo and multi out adv? I'm new to midi drums and sorry in advance if the answer is long.
Hey there! Thanks a bunch man, this worked for me in the Modern & Massive one. Just a question, do I have to work like this when I'm adding it as a track instrument? Sorry, I'm a newbie to Cubase.
Aritra Arka track instruments function similarly, although I haven’t tried this particular set up as a track instrument yet!
@@KrzychoStal I don't know if I missed something but I can't figure out how to load the routing in kontakt with the file you provided.
@@stephenbridges6480 The .cfg files are Kontakt output preset files that you'll want to save wherever you save your other output preset files. Then they'll appear in that drop down list titled "Presets/Batch Functions" right beside the Output +/- , toward the bottom of the Kontakt player.
.cpr files are Cubase templates that you have to save wherever you save your Cubase templates!
The preset/batch function button is visible here:
ruclips.net/video/OqP4Lt3KeAg/видео.html
Right below "hihats"/where my mouse cursor is
Krzysztof Stalmach followed all your instructions setting up all out puts and audio channels to be fed from set outputs. All sounds only come out of one channel I don’t know what I did wrong. But thank you for replying.
I’m running Cubase 10 elements and it didn’t allow me to make all the necessary outputs or input buses on audio connections
I’m definitely going to have to try this. My question is, when you set up everything routed to different tracks, can you still write drum parts from the drum editor using all drums/cymbals from the library from the same screen?
Yep! You still write everything from one midi roll
Thank you man, I appreciate the quick reply!
@@KrzychoStal One other quick question. Does this help with writing drums in the drum editor and using groove packs on the same track? I can't seem to make this work where I write a few parts and then import a groove pack for one section of a song. It comes in a scrambled midi notes instead of sticking to my drum map and as those small diamond icons on the drum editor. This might be something completely different so please excuse my ignorance with is if it doesn't apply.
Hey thanks for making this tutorial. My qurstion is, why when i routing on my cymbal is only 1 mic available? Just like fx only going to hats mic. All cymbals going to hats mic
Same here
Thanks for making this video! Now after this is all set up, how do you go about linking up a midi drum map exported from guitarpro? Is it just a matter of loading the drum map in Kontakt? My goal is to use GGD with guitarpro midi drum tracks in cubase. Thanks again!
Kevin Cornwell for the most part GP uses GM (general midi) drum maps. So you can go to the settings tab of Invasion and choose the GM Drum map from the drop down. I think most things should work right out of the GP midi that way except maybe snares
I have cubase 12 pro and i can't hear any sounds from audio inputs. I did everything as you showed but it is not working. Help me please.
Alright I’m having a frustrating issue, once I get into the bus stage, it’s only letting me add 15 busses, also, cheers I’m also from alberta!!
This is really weird, but for some reason, when I download the template, the cymbals don't play. Also, I am getting a ton of "MISSING FILES" that I've pointed to the Audio files folder, but it doesnt resolve anything. Any idea? THANKS
What i do wrong when i click on activate stereo out none of the tracks pops out ? HELP
Where do you upload the templates and drum maps in Cubase?
Followed this step for step and I'm not getting any audio from Modern & Massive into Cubase. I can see the audio on the Kontakt channel strips, but nothing is going into Cubase from there
Fixed it myself haha Didn't have the outputs routed in Kontakt!
Great video! I just picked up GGD today and have been follow your steps. They have saved me a ton of time!...
The only issue i'm running into now, is when i import a GGD MIDI from one of it's grooves, it's not mapping properly to the Drum Map. I tried decided to use your map and create my own map and map each note one-to-one with GGD-Invasions default mappings and when i pulled the MIDI back in, i noticed it did the same thing and mapped to the wrong notes in Cubase again.
Example:
The Kick & Snare are mapped to B-1 and D0 in GGD
When i import a midi into cubase they are remapped to C1 & D1, which is TOM 1 and TOM 3
Did you ever run into this issue?
joe k I’ve not myself run into that, no. If you want link the midi you’re having problems with and I can try
Krzysztof Stalmach I’m just pulling in one of the default groves that came with invasion.
Anup-Groove6-Pattern1 for example.
They all get mis aligned for me when I import the midi into cubase.
I’m sure I’m missing something obvious. :)
@@KrzychoStal Hey man, i figured it out!
When you have the groove selected in Kontakt for M&M or Invasion and you scroll to the bottom, you can click on the export button then (drag & drop) it into the midi track in the DAW (i.e. Cubase) and it will retain the notes settings. Thanks again for you help.
joe k glad it worked out!
Beginner here, is this a routing that only allows for say into a midi kit to play the get good library on an electric kit or is this also for someone like me who doesnt have a kit but can map them out on the drum map? thanks sorry if I'm stupid lol
Jeremy Schiesser hey Jeremy! This routing is purely for writing drums inside of Cubase. Like I show briefly in the video. I don’t have an edrum kit either my dude!
Krzysztof Stalmach yea thanks man. I just dove in and watched a ton of vids and did a bunch of exploration around the cubase interface and I’m already well on my way to setting up a project template to get this ball rolling. Lol cheers
Whaaat?
I have Cubase 11... Half does NOt look like your screen...completely lost...Is this the Advanced Class?
I think I have set it up as you did, and I have added a midi track to program on and I cant hear any of the drum sounds. But When I play a groove in the player I hear the sounds and the meters on each individual tracks are showing up. So lost
Check your MIDI tracks Channel?
Hey, Can you help me`?
where does your Templates goes to? In which folder i have to save your files? :D
Sorry for my bad english and nice tutorial mate, keep it going :)
YoloD. CS:GO your English is very good! Never apologize for learning more languages. It’s a skill that’s under appreciated. As far as where to save them the default template directory for Cubase is Users/YourName/AppData/Roaming/Steinberg/Cubase10(or whatever version you have)/Project Templates. And the Kontakt routing is saved to Users/YourName/AppData/Local/Native Instruments/Kontakt/default/Output Section Presets
@@KrzychoStal thanks for the quick
Answer Mate. I will try IT tomorrow and i will give you a quick Response If it works for me :-)
Thanks for the good words :-)
YoloD. CS:GO yes, let me know if it works!
just realized this wont work with cubase elements 10 because we only get 12 input/outputs in the audio connections :( thank you though man !! might get an upgrade today lol
What Dennis said. I think there's a sale on Cubase right now anyway and it is so, so, SO worth the money.
Buy Cubase Pro student edition. It's a fraction of the price.
Hi so i get upto the 4.50 mark, but then when i try to do the stereo output it only shows 1 kt. st. 1(stereo), 4 aux stereo and 52 kt. unassigned mono. do u happen to know why its doing that or how to fix it? thank you!
After naming your tracks in Kontakt, Save as default for VST plugin in kontakt then actually restart kontakt. The outputs should be fixed then and be already named
@@kaptainkraze1954 I shall try that! Thank you
Hi, I'm nearly there but I just can't get the last bit of routing. I Have it routed out of Kontakt into its separate outputs and I have activated them on the in Cubase VSTi section but I can't get the BUS that you make on the Audio Connections Section to show as an input for my audio tracks. Can you help?
The only thing I can think of is that I only have Cubase 10 Elements, maybe it won't show me the other busses unless I upgrade to Artist or Pro?
Calvin Casey not an expert on all the different versions but it may be that elements doesn’t offer the routing capability :/. Which does suck, definitely.
Thank you, I think you are right. There is only one thing for it, I’m going to upgrade to Artist edition and see if that does the job. I’ll let you know how I get on 👍 I will get pro eventually if they put another sale on
Hey I just got Cubase elements as well and IT DOES HAVE THIS feature on the top of the screen click STUDIO directly underneath AUDIO CONNECTIONS also F4
ANNNNDDDDD the limit of input/output seems to be 12 AHHHHHHHH
lel, I have Artist and even with it I can't set all the outputs! So annoying
yo for some reason the outputs from 5 on are always mono, no matter what setting i use in kontakt... also the routing is really confusing like the room channel is also on the kick channel xd
I've actually noticed that recently my routing was getting jumbled as well. I'm getting rooms in with a my 3rd rack tom, this is something that hasn't happened before for me. I'm still trying to figure that one out.
@KrzychoStal Hey man! Super helpful video! Did you ever find a fix for this issue? Just installed Cubase 13 and everything seemed to be routed correctly, but everything is coming through my Kick.
On minute 4:36, I have only four STEREO output, the rest are mono :'( I dont have sound on my overheads
I'm not sure which version of Kontakt you have but I think 5.0 and previous you have to manually select the one that has 16 stereo outs. So for example when you look to add a rack VST instrument you'll see "Kontakt 5, Kontakt 5 8out, Kontakt 5 16out". The first option (Kontakt 5) has only 4 stereo outs.
modern and massive template and drum map please 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
hey guys, im new to this. i just got cubase 10.5 and i got ggd invasion cause i as well liked the sounds. I'm struggling to figure out how to get ggd onto cubase. can anyone please help
How far have you come? have you installed GGD Invasion through Native Access yet?
@@KrzychoStal yeah i have it downloaded and can use the program, i just cant figure out how to get it loaded into cubase
@@alexelliott3280 No worries. You want to hit either F11, or click on Studio > VST Instruments. Then add a rack instrument instance of Kontakt. Then it'll appear on the left side in your Kontakt libraries!
@@KrzychoStal I don't see kontakt. All that's there is steinburg and no vst instrument
I wanna throw stuff cause all I wanna do is be able to start recording lol.
Still Struggling
GGD is producing no sound at all.
It was way simpler in Logic. Why does Cubase make it so complicated?
They’ve definitely not optimized the DAW for ease of use. That’s for sure
