great video again...I never use range selection, was not so aware of all these goodies but I will certainly look at it and will surely use this tutorial as reference, thanks!
Thank you. Yes it’s easy to overlook these tools as everything can also be done with just ‘normal’ selection and editing. But using the range selection tools can be much faster sometimes.
Thank you for another valued Cubase Video. I think I do not use the Range Selection enough due to lack of Knowladge of its more advanced capabilities. Your video make me think it is maybe good time to learn it properlly. Thank you so much and have a great weeksend. Amram (Israel)
Hi Amram, yes that's exactly the reason I made this video. Most of this has been in Cubase for a long time already but it's easy to overlook as you can do most of these things with traditional selection combined with cut/paste as well. But the range selection tooling makes it a lot faster so it's worthwhile to know about.
I use the range selection tool to set cycle markers. I made a macro and a shortcut, that sets the locators to start and end of the range selection (or the event if an event is selected) and then opens the cycle marker editor where I can name this. That way I can later export the music within the different cycle markers named by the cycle marker and the project all at once by selecting all the cycle markers I want to export into different files.
My tip: When you copy drag events make sure you let go of the click before letting go of alt otherwise it cancels and just moves it. I still do this all the time.
Great explanation and demo. Now I'm wondering if range selection would allow me to apply specific EQ to a range, without the need to cut each tiny target segment into a separate event. If that could be done, what are the steps? Thanks!
@@LanewoodStudios So then other than offline processing, to adjust EQ on a small section of an audio track I'd have to either cut the section into its own event, or automate the entire track? Thank you for any help you can give, pointing me in the right direction. I should add that I was pretty good with Cubase 15 years ago, and after that gap I am now relearning it (Cubase 13 Pro) as a relative newbie. I appreciate your helpful videos!
It’s good to see how this works , however when you do this using the range selector and say delete a section . What happens to the automation data? Is it deleted as well and automatically moved ?
Hey Peter, yes I should have added that even though I never use it myself. When you enable that, you get the range selection tool or the object selection tool depending on where you click on the track. On the top part of the track you get the range selection tool and on the bottom part you get the object selection tool. That makes it a bit too fiddly to me, as my tracks are usually not so high. But of course YMMV. Thanks for the reminder so others can see it as well 👍.
@@LanewoodStudios Hoi waar is je studio? Limburg soms? Ik struggle ontzettend met het mixen van mijn producties. Zou ik graag eens met je over willen praten als dat mogelijk is. Gr. Stephan (Maastricht)
Hoi @@StayFunKey, ik woon in Helmond en daar is ook deze studio, gewoon in mijn huis. Ik krijg vaker vragen om mee te werken aan producties maar helaas is dit geen commerciele studio en heb ik daar geen tijd voor. Ik gebruik hem vooral voor mijn eigen band Awash. Daarnaast heb ik gewoon een voltijds baan in een heel ander vakgebied. Ik heb overigens wel een hele playlist vol met 21 videos over de productie van een track voor mijn band van begin tot eind. Dat zijn ook precies de zaken die ik je anders zou vertellen ;). Wellicht heb je daar ook iets aan.
Thanks for very useful videos, just wanted to add a tiny tip:
ctl + shift + dragging with the range tool makes a selection across all tracks.
Thanks, great tip!
Great video. Not even aware of the range opeions in the edit Selection Menu. Thanks.
Thanks!
Thanks for the tips. I’ve been using Cubase for years and years and I’m still learning tricks to improve my workflow.
Yes this is one of those things that you overlook easily because you can do it in other ways too. Less efficiently though 😉.
Thank you for this. As a Pro Tools convert, this info is invaluable.
Glad it was helpful!
This is what i looked for 👍 Tnx my man.
You are very welcome!
Great! I was missing some sort of "ripple editing" feature like in Reaper but this takes care of that!
👍😎🙏
This was great! Learned a few new tricks! Thanks so much!
You are welcome! Always nice to learn new tricks 😉

Ahh that explains that one makes sense
Slowly but surely picking up thing all the time
One step at a time 😉

Ha yes, very good tip. I just did that two minutes ago in Cubase on a laptop, where it's a bit of a pain to hold alt while also using the mouse pad.

Thank you but I don’t think that is possible with range selection.

I hardly ever need this but yes offline processing or effects on the whole track and automation I would say.
@@LanewoodStudios Thank you. I appreciate your taking time to reply.

I think it is.
Hey Maarten, what about the combined use of the selection tool and de range selection tool? ps, a useful video once again.
Hey Peter, yes I should have added that even though I never use it myself. When you enable that, you get the range selection tool or the object selection tool depending on where you click on the track. On the top part of the track you get the range selection tool and on the bottom part you get the object selection tool. That makes it a bit too fiddly to me, as my tracks are usually not so high.

range select and mute?
Like your vids, and i watch them most of the time on my mobile phone. I noticed that your voice needs a lot of de-essing.
Thanks. And yes I constantly struggle a bit with how much de-essing I should apply to get the best sound for my voice. Any tips?
@@LanewoodStudios
Maybe you can try Sooth 🤔
Yeah it’s on there already as well.
