I've been using Cubase for more than 30 years - and you're still showing me stuff I haven't seen before! Great video - fantastic Cubase!
Exactly! In fact, there would be a great new Thinkspace course, in depth MIDI Orchestration, all things Cubase.
Every single time I watch your videos I get so excited about new things to try!
Great! My work is done
Thanks Guy! This was fun! Watch - take notes - review - experiment and go on and have fun.Seems complicated at first, but not any different than spending time practicing scales. Once you've learned them there is nothing to fear.
Love it! I use the reverse and then reverse reverb all the time for solo intros and panning weirdness… thanks for the tips!
Fantastic and very inspiring video, thank you so much - can't wait to have a play with some of these ideas.
Excellent. Very common techniques, used in the most creative and logical ways. Thank you!
Hi Guy. One of the things that got me interested in music editing was a small item by Gerry Anderson (of Thunderbirds fame) in the TV21 comic, late 1960s - I'd be 11 or 12. He described your reverse/forward piano technique but using tape editing. I never dared try it on my Dad's reel-to-reel, but I stored it up and played with the idea when I got access to digital editing on my Amiga 30 years later. What fun!
Guy, you're the man!! I've been on Cubase for 2 years now and it's the first time I've learned about its pitch correction envelope. My workaround was to create a sampler track with my desired audio clip and automate the pitch from there. Glad to know that I could actually eliminate a few more steps in my workflow using Direct Offline Processing. Will try this trick out!!
Get your stuff sorted in a script and then stick a key switch on it - hey presto
These are great fun! Thanks for explaining and sharing them, Guy. Ha HA, never thought of using the sampler track to play a series of hard chords.... Take care
Wonderful!. Thank you very much, you are the number one👍.
that was awesome, mesmerizing & thanks.
Looking forward to this one!😎👍
That was great fun Guy. I really must check out that Sampler Track!
Great video, thanks, Guy!!
Wonderful video. We must not forget to have fun making music.
Very interesting and helpful tutorial! 👍
Thanks Guy. I learnt some really good tips there. 👌
Thank you for sharing!
Great great tips 👍☺️👍
Good to see you again - it seems like it has been a while!
"Here is Damage 2, which is an epic, great, tum... Armageddony-type soundy thing". 🤣 Why Guy doesn't have a million subscribers is beyond my understanding. In fact, skip to 1:42. This is why we all love this channel. ZERO arrogance! 👍🏼
Fantastic video, oh Bearded One :D You remind me how fun it can be to play with sounds, which is what has always intrigued me about being a composer. Definitely going to play around and post the results. Thanks for the inspiration! You are truly a Wizard :D
guy,you are such fun to watch, and hugely educational.
:)
You need a brown hoodie then you can be a Jedi ;)
BTW I recommended yo use a Rode NTG-2, which you did, but you should put it above your screen or over your head pointing down like a location filming mic, that way no mic in shot, no lav mic setup and battery charging to remember!
You have inspired me.... AGAIN
Cubase is absolutely a great (the greatest ^^) DAW for Sounddesign!
all tools are included plus professional onboard effects and VSTis. Direct Offline Processing and the SamplerTrack are real weapons for firing off a sample and do sounddesign in a very quick way. Tip: shortcuts and macros for this tasks.
Fun video, Guy! With regard to tip#5 (FX patches), in post-production, I'll do something similar using automation curves on several effects inserted into just the one track. But I think in certain sound design applications, your method is more effective.. and a bit faster
Great advice I need to learn how to do it on GarageBand!
Hi Guy ,keep up Very good Tutorial .Well done.
Guy ... You really should do this sort of thing for a living 😂😀 ... Totally informative and Splendid stuff ... and thank you !
Awesome lesson 💯👍
Glad you liked it!
Nice tips Guy!
I’ve been messing around in Bitwig lately and love how it handles bouncing and being able to use midi & audio on one track. I just drag any midi clip I want to bounce to the clip launcher in case I need it later and bounce audio over the midi. Love how clean you can keep things in Bitwig
Bitwig is amazing! That's definitely the present/future of DAWS to me. If you think in bitwig for a while, every other daw seems so slow comparatively😋 at least on the creative and sound design side. Cubase makes pro level mixing, mastering, post production stuff really smooth though. It's all personal preference though I suppose🤷♂️✌️
How did you get going with the basic stuff.
It appears difficult to get the thing going. Is there a bitwig primer you read ?
The window layout makes no sense in bitwig
@@thedevilsadvocate5210 I come from a more synthesis oriented background so the modular workflow of Bitwig is quite familiar to me from using VSTs like phaseplant & zebra.
It’s much closer to Ableton workflow than cubase. I have very little Ableton experience though. Cubase does a lot of stuff better, but Bitwig gives me much more freedom to experiment when it comes to modulating complex chains of instruments & FX as if they were one synth.
I prefer cubase for mixing, drum slicing & working with audio. The drum slicing is easily solved by using Groove Agent 5 in VST & slicing breaks in there like I used to in cubase.
My aim is to get to a point where I can do all of the initial creative process of track production & all my sound design sessions in Bitwig, then export stems to cubase for mixdown & adding a few more bells & whistles and can also add any vocal samples at that point where I can use variaudio or melodyne in ARA2.
I’m only about 3 months into learning Bitwig and feel as comfortable in it now as I did in cubase after years with it. It’s really very intuitive for my kind of production, where I’m generally creating my basses from scratch using subtractive or FM synths and loads of 3rd party FX. A lot of the time using synths I’ll wish I had an extra envelope or LFO, or wish I could use a better filter but still modulate it with the same LFOs as the oscillators. Bitwig makes this incredibly easy, where in cubase you have to be flicking between different plugin UIs & learning each one’s unique modulation system, or cluttering up projects with midi tracks for routing if you want to use external modulators like LFOtool.
In Bitwig I rarely use any of my synths for anything but their oscillators, because I can sub out the synth’s native FX for better distortion, chorus, filter & time based FX than the ones built into the synth. Plus unlimited modulation sources means I can completely break the limitations of any soft synth built to emulate classic analog gear, with limited oscillators, envelopes & some may not even have LFOs or audio rate modulation capability. None of that matters in Bitwig. Anything goes when it comes to modular flexibility.
epic!!
you are fantastic
That reversed piano sounds almost exactly as the reversed piano intro on Yes Roundabout 👍
thanks,now i know what that Sound at the beginning of roundabout is
@Guy Michelmore : ...here´s a "top secret" tip: you can directly drag ´n drop a Midi-Event onto Sampler Track Control (Upper Zone) - it renders automatically... ❤
Sometimes schwipp...boom with the gap is cool. Great tips 👍
Thank you, you're amazing as always. You're my new personal god of music, I will carve a Buddha-like statue in your image someday lol
I love your channel Guy. You are such an enthusiast. I had a real Homer Simpson, “Duh” moment today when I realised you are THAT Guy Michelmore. I take it coffee cups are banned from the desk in your studio?
After I dropped a cup of tea into my s88 mk2? Definitely
@@ThinkSpaceEducation ruclips.net/video/wqVB2x3IATo/видео.html Some folks never learn
Most satisfying Guy I know
So many different stutter / trance-gate plugins, and I've found a lot of it is quite possible with the tools built into ableton, either by the sample slicer, or by sidechaining a gate using a trigger track.
This video is as epic as that beard! Thank you once again Guy! I Just think you need more buttons.
@17:55 Before you moved on, I would love to have heard a tempo increase on that one! lol Very cool sound. (I'll try it and get back to you. 🤣👍)
That beard! That majestic beard! 😮
Hi Guy
Can you please demonstrate the reverse reverb effect on a vocal. I've never been able to do it convincingly to get that 'rushing' sound at the start of a vocal line.
Be interesting to see how you incorporate these sounds in a track / beat / song
Guy has a new mic - I heard the difference instantly
Hi Guy, love your videos. Do you ever mention Cakewalk by Bandlab?
If I what? 4:09 🤣🤣🎸🎸
When making a MIDI into audio i usually do the midi sound dry so i can controll reverb etc on the audio file....the audio sounds sometimes weird if i make audio with effects on :)
Its foggy outside and Santa Klaus still hasn't shaved!
Very well Professor Dumbledore ;)
I love these videos my friend. I'm completely new to music production. I love music but I never learned to read or write music theory.. U know what I mean?
I have Bitwig 8 track which I got as a free download with a NEKTAR IMPACT LX25+ as a beginner but it's not easy to work out yet. I'm at the very beginning stages of my run at this but I ha e time on my hands now and I really want to do this.
Have u made videos for beginners in the past 9n ur channel or could u point me in the right direction of somebody who makes beginners videos on how to use the DAW and all tat entails. Sorry pal. I realise u are far above me on the totem poll when it comes to this. I'm not even on ur radar but I would appreciate some advice. Thanks for ur time..
Michelmore is Michel, more!
Hello Guy, very fascinating video as always! Bit off topic but what are your thoughts on 8DIO Adagietto these days? I seem to remember an old old video (possibly from the DP days) where you showed the usefulness of the dynamic bowing ensembles in particular. Is the library still worth it in 2022 or are there better alternatives? Thanks
Absolutely and it’s ridiculously cheap for what you get. I have it in my template
Good evening, is there a method please to separate general listening "stereo out" and listening to the media bay? in other words I want to route the sound of the media bay separately in another audio track? I heard that it is feasible from the "control room" but it seems very complicated for a beginner A video explaining the procedure would be great
All of these sampler tricks can be done in hardware too. The MPC can do most of it. I have a Rossum assimil8or too that will do all of it but those are expensive these days.
Yes you can if that's your workflow - go for it
I can finally create my own sub bass, because I was always not happy with samples
Hmm ... is this the real Guy Mitchelmore???
0:32 -"Good morning, Kontakt!"
-"Hello, Guy!"
Oh ... case closed, this is the real Guy Mitchelmore!!!
YUP
Guy, how are you getting on with the NI S88 now?
That was cool😆
Hello guy, how do you record your Cubase audio for videos? Whenever I try to stream Cubase to my friends there are audio issues and my application cannot be heard
Ahh this is why my music isn't sounding professional, I'm not talking to my daw and virtual instruments!
Obviously! They're like plants
CuBase has changed a little since I last used Cubase 2 on the Atari ST in 1990...
He Gy try the Cubase Tremelo effekt. Its grat!
19:26 you should name that file "fava bean slurp"
Ha!
Fine. Do you have a similar video but for Ableton. Am a beginner and Ableton is my DAW. Please let know. Thanks in advance. Pune city, India.,
It already costs more during daytime, due to the current artificial electricity "costs". "They" may soon charge for "digital use" minutes and also assign credits for such based on complience with their current thing. Is is all well undeway.
What is the software your using for you different cameras views?

Is it possible to request a video on a Rubato piece in midi? I captured a nice sounding 12 bar piece at 120 bpm but its a slow orchestral type interlude. I want to do accompaniment tracks but at 120 that won't work. How to time map such a track in Cubase and make it workable for other tracks? BTW. LOVE Everything you do. I am a 69 YO Noob and you are a constant resource and smile to my journey to learn music. Thanks Guy!!
Its a nightmare. There are ways and tap tempo and pulling beats around in the editor but none of them are straightforward. Its easier to start with straight in time midi then change the tempo to give you that rubato feel.
@@ThinkSpaceEducation Thank you so much for even a reply..how cool. I tried with some success to use pads and arp rates and it is kind of nice. But I'm a noob and not musically trained. I'm 69 and just getting to understanding some theory, etc. but it seem a shame that at any age or skill you play mindlessly and say oh, wow, I like that! Hit capture midi and there's a your last inspiration in midi at the default tempo. 🙄 Oh well. Thanks again. You're awesome!
When will be the Deadline to submit the tiny track with the techniques you explained? Watched the video right know (shame on me - not doing the bell thingy)...
sweet beard!!!
What Cubase Version is this, because the icon is blue?
12
Early bird
Every DAW can do render in place...
Checked out... Obviously LMMS can't 😃😁
One day I think I pay for a DAW. 😂
So, baroque music with reverses…are you saying we should…
Bach it up, Bach it up, Bach it up?
Ha ha ha
5:11 In 5...4...3...2.........
I KNOW
YOU SEE
SOMEHOW THE WORLD WILL CHANGE FOR ME
6:40 - you just made a virtual harmonica
Didn't I promise myself to use more rendered audio like this after watching another of Guy's excellent videos? Yes, I did. I'm a bad person! :(
What do you do when you realize you're a bad person???
render yourself out
@@ThinkSpaceEducation Hahaaa Yes!!! Of course! What doesn't kill me makes me stronger ... and as a bonus I can sample any splattering noises with my ZOOM recorder and bring it into Cubase! :D
OMG!!!
Are you me from the future?
No no no - you are me from my past
I for Hope You tube thus weekend some video about VSL. They die activate iLok and in Discord Forums start Composers Discussions that they leave VSL. I will leave with time my favourite Libaries. iLok îs indirekt a Avid product AMD in past it makes so much libaries anderen projects unusable. I dell May VSL Libaries
I like that beard.
Captain Birdseye.......lol
needs a trim
"milliseconds" 😂
Why you have bear ? Christmas passed or are you going to make it music summer Santa ?
Guy: "Good morning, Kontakt."
Kontakt: "Hi Guy!"
Thank you doctor for restored my happiness, I'm so happy . Now I'm free from HSV 1&2 . Thank you very much. 💅💅.#drsirdoma.
