Here's a fourth thing (that should be number one) you should do, if you use the Cue mixes in the ControlRoom to record live musicians (or whatever you use to feed the headphones). I ALWAYS put a fast brick wall limiter on the cue mex output (in the last slot). That way you don't run the risk of damaging the musicians hearing, should a loud noise such as feedback to a spike accidentally occur. This can happen and it's great NOT to have a deaf musician as a result.
Dude, your tutorials are absolutely the most helpful I have ever seen. Better than groove 3, Udemy, and even cubase official. I have a question for you. I have like 50 billion loops in various keys and tempos. I am not a music theory master. Is there any video or something you can recommend on how to make a loop match the key of the song? Also, how do I even know what key I'm in? I just do stuff by ear and don't know the technical terms. Thanks!
I dont know if you already made a video about this, but I would like to know how to use a second computer configuration. I mean, like the one you describe, with the instruments in a separate computer. Thanks!
While a buffer size of 256 is usually adequate for recording certain instruments, the Constrain Delay Compensation button is usually a much more elegant and accurate solution.
Yes! This is a feature which every other DAW user would envy us, at least if they knew about it. I think not even every Cubase ist knows about it's advantages.
Thanks for the tips! My Cubase came with about 13 minutes of built in song length, and a start time of about 10 minutes. I have no idea why. You reminded me to go fix this mess. I write songs between 3 & 5 minutes so I don't think I need 7 thousand bars. The limiter suggestion below for the cue mix is welcome as well. Thanks!
Man, this has always annoyed me for so long i cant even remember, i've been using cubase for about 15 years, and you're the only one who talked about it so far (and i've watched dozens of videos about this daw) Thanks so much, bro! advice worth hundreds of likes and followers! Just saved the year! Do you know if is there any substitute for the Project Browser in the cubase 13? (helped a lot with automation and visualization of the project, so sad that it's gone) Cheers form Brazil
Great video John. Question: When I set my time code at cursor 1 I don't see the 0 before it. Would that happen to be I have adapt to zoom on instead of beat? I'm so glad I found your channel. You explain everything in great detail. Keep up the fantastic work you're doing! !!!
Thanks for this! The project setup duration tip is great! Would be great if there were a way to set that as a preference for every project, maybe I just can't find it. It does seem thought that when I set the duration to a lower amount (like 3 min as you suggest) and save that as a template, upon opening the template it remembers the shorter duration. Anyway, thanks for posting the tips!
Yes templates are a great way to save this type of modification! I constantly deal with different durations so this is something I use a lot! I'm glad it helped!
Unfortunately I don't know English terminology much so I will say it as I can. Long wave sample, you cut it to be a bar long let's say, I need to drag the whole wave inside that bar. I've seen a guy doing it and I couldn't allow myself asking him which key or command he's holding to do that. I also seen few more stuff he does I can't explain I'm sorry.
Thanks John, very helpful. Nice and clear presentation. I'm going to search for more tutorials of you.
Cool! Thanks.

That's a great tip! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for the valuable info man!
Great tutorials ! Fresh approach and a lot to learn here, subscribed !!!
Thanks for the sub! Glad I could help!
Thank you. These are great!
I want to know how you got the left and right arrows on the transport bar. ???
The first 🔥 20 years never saw it or thaught about it 😂❤️
🙏🏽
Thanks, of course liked and subscribed ❤
Thank you.
Clear, concise and to the point.
Nice video opening .
Couldn’t help wondering which software you used.
I thought it was overly verbose, like almost 4 mins just to mention that duration is useful for the zoom level.

Useful stuff! For reference, time is displayed as hours:minutes:seconds:frames (not milliseconds)
You’re absolutely right! Great catch, thanks!

I’ve been using Nuendo/Cubase for almost three years and didn’t know any of this. 😂😂
Great stuff mun

Definitely.
Great stuff! Thank you. :-)
Wow, I like this. Learn anything new since Dec 2022?
Supervision should be before Sonarworks in Control Room
Good catch! Yes you are absolutely right!
Control Room rocks!

Great video. That bonus tip has just solved something that has annoyed me for years.
Glad it helped!

Came for the buffer size and got some extras 👍
Always dropping 💎

I have this set to 3min and it remembers that each time

I think Cubase will automatically adjust buffer size (i.e. latency) in the future, based on what you're doing (recording, mixing...)

You can use the time stam
You can use the term he used for that particular area or season
Use reference point to get ma guy help you out
Why do cubase feels like a child's toy? Like it's not serious at all.
