This has been the most non-techy, musician-friendly Cubase tutorial. Thanks!

Clear, precise and enjoyable tutorial especially for an old rocker (1960's) getting up to the present day. A very big thank you.

You just taught me way more than you intended. The light came on regarding other things I wanted to do in Cubase. I am totally new to Cubase. You helped me so much. Thank you!

Thanks Jef(f). Very helpful. Great place to begin your Cubase 10 tutorial series. Clear and concise for someone like myself, as I'm just getting started.

Excellent and very clear explanation of one of the most important basics.

Thankyou Jef. I've been struggling with the bus concept and you've layed it out it very well here.

Super clear! Thank you so much for the thorough tutorial. Long time Logic user here who's migrating to Cubase, and this is pure gold.

Brilliant video, been struggling with this issue since purchasing Cubase 12 this year. You’ve explained everything in such simple turns even I could understand it. A big thank you from me.

Outstanding Tutorials from Jeff he delivers exactly what you need know, no Mumbo Jumbo nice clear explanations.

More great stuff... you are making my switch to Cubase super smooth Jef!

AT 12:13, you said "...you have to make sure the monitor button is off." This was So Helpful! It was driving me mad that I couldn't hear what I'd recorded. I looked at so many websites to find the answer to this problem and you had it. Thank you so much. I will make sure to watch more of your videos.

I'm starting Cubase from the deep end!!! You are making my life easier 😃

Enjoying the series so far, you're making it easier for me to get up to speed with Cubase. I like your choice of interface too (yes I have the same one :D)

Very informative. Really enjoying the detailed description.

O.K, finally someone who actually made this make sense...to me. BRILLIANT! I've been looking a while now too, lol. So, finally it clicked, and everything I've done thus far as been WRONG. ha ha Thanks to you, I'm on the right track now. Instant subscription and looking forward to checking your other vids out. Much appreciated. Thanks. Dave

Very good quality of teaching! Thank you Master!)

Thanks for all your awesome information. You are the best I've seen so far. Cubase is so vast even for experienced musicians. Thanks again.

Really amazing! Perfect explanation! Love ❤️ from Canada 🇨🇦

Thanks a lot, I never knew you could increase the volume in cubase for the headphones themselves !!! i always thought i was buying bad headphones!!!

Excellent tutorial! Details explained well & clear. Thanks. I will continue to follow & will for sure have questions later which I am hoping you can help clarify or solve. Thanks a bunch!

Such a clean office? Something unusual to not to notice cables going all over ... Nice video. thank you

Nice, clear, and straight to the point.

Thanks Jef, clear and concise. I have the MR816X as hardware and the setup was automatic! Will now go back and implement a mono bus!

Such a gifted instructor.

The tutorial is very helpful and its made in a way that beginners can understand. Thanks... need a lots of more basic tutorials.

Thank you Jef. So well explained at every step.

The explanation is to the point. Great work. Thanks

Many thanks for an excellent tutorial. I've been searching for one like this!

This video really helped me alot today and resolved my very basic issues....thanks alot.

Coming from Ableton and Pro Tools this was extremely useful. Thank you so much.

Fantastic tuts! I've been doing loads recently but yours are definitely best bang for (time) buck!

Great video, i'm very knew to recording myself and this has defo been the most helpful video! Thanks alot man

Very good explanation about the vocal levels and it’s mode of recording in cubase

Fantastic information about basic information.

I'm a total noob and this was so helpfull! thank you so much.

New to using Cubase AI with the Steinberg UR22MKii. Unfortunately the steinberg channel goes way over my head explaining how to just set up one microphone for a simple audio recording. Too much information too fast only causes confusion & frustration. This video you produced explained how to set it up in the software, and the hardware is a piece of cake. Thanks for simplifying the process!

Thank you Jeff for your explanation of input buses that you made very clear. I’ve watched other videos and still been confused about why I needed them. I have a Steinberg ur22c which has two inputs so I only need two mono inputs? I’m a new user of Cubase 10.5 AI but not DAW recording and I find it a steep learning curve. 👍👍👍

You have a beautiful studio!

The Essentials explained very well! Very Helpful as a daw-switcher like me

Very helpful Cubase intro for me. Thank you

Very very helpful thanks for making this

I like your tutorials they are clear and concise, liked and subbed.

Great job on this. Thanks

Perfect for beginners like me. Thanks!

This is really helpful, just what I needed, thanks!

Thamk you !!! very comprehensive and helpful!

Hi jef.. simple yet great starter video for beginners.

Wirklich erstklassig ❤️💙 👌🏼

Thanks a lot for sharing your knowledge sir..

That was a very helpful video

Great, it helped me alot. New to this.

great video, thanks alot!

Thanks! That was great!

Thanks - helping a friend how to use Cubase (not sure exactly which model the DAW he got) I am a Pro Tools maniac. Thanks heaps

hi jef man, cool video, a quick question, i have a 4in 4out usb interface which is great, however i also have a 16 channel mixing desk....which way would you recommend setting up?......guitar/mics straight into the interface to record?....or guitar/mic into mixer then into interface record?...for pre adjustment?.......this has always baffled me. cheers. whichever way should i have the audio out going to mixer too, or straight to my hifi/speakers???....

This was very helpful thanks

Hi Jef, thank you very much for your content, you are the best and you explain everything thoroughly. So, I am just learning recording techniques the hard way, that is all alone, as covid isolation keeps us home but also cancelled all our concerts, so I am making music for KZfaq. I am recording piano and voice with 3 mics, a matched pair of M5 Rode condensers for the piano and an NT- 2A for voice. My AI is a Zed-10 (Allen&Heath) connected to my laptop via USB. my question is, what kind of a signal does the AI send to cubase? Does it send the whole mix in 1 track, or do I have to set up 3 tracks , one for each mic? Or do I set up one stereo track for the matched pair and one mono track for the voice? If I must set up one track for the whole mix, should it be a stereo or mono track, since I am using 3 mics? I would be grateful if you could clarify this for me! Best greetings from Athens, Greece!

Super clear thank you so much sir ji 🎉🎉🎉🎉

your a real tutor nice 👍

Very useful Thank you :)

Good Teacher

Hi Jeff, thank you for the wonderful video tutorials that you put out they are very helpful. I was wondering if you could tell me what model and brand of keyboards that you are using on your desktop? I see them in the video but cannot tell what type of keyboard they are. I need to purchase something small, perhaps three octaves, with full-size keys for MIDI input of notes in Dorico. Thank you so much!

hi Jef,very good yor tutoríal and thanks

thank You Jef!

Nice video! So, say I wanted to transfer vocals and guitar from a Tascam 4-track tape recorder. Vocals on track 1, guitar on track 2 on the Tascam. Would it be the same procedure as if I were recording from a microphone? I'm assuming it would be Tascam > interface > Cubase, so on the Audio Connections - Inputs' settings, each mono input from the bus (interface) should represent track 1 and track 2 on the Tascam, given that track 1 is panned all the way to the left and track 2 to the right on the Tascam. Am I getting this right? I'd appreciate any help, I'm just starting to learn all of this!

I have an Audient I14 Interface. Can U tell me, how I can record "What I Hear" ? I want to set "every sound that is coming from my Pc" to an INPUT

Thank you!

Thank you, very interesting video! I started to use Amplitube as plug in of Cubase. Do you know if it is possible to make Amplitude to receive program change from cubase (I can’t manage to do that). many thanks!

Thank you Jef for the video.It has helped me a lot.In the stage where I am now,I can hear myself on the headphone and I think everything is settle as suggested but my vocal recording is not working.How to fix it?

Hi buddy, question about the main monitors/ speaker..... So you manually muted the main speaker monitors, using your focusrite. When you are recording in a single room, e.g. one musician, accustic piano, is there a way to get a) monitors speakers to turn off when you go into record and B) input busses to turn off when you go into play back? Or better just make a quick key to mute inputs on play back and deactivate monitors when you record? Or is the Mute button on the audio interface the only good option on record and mute the input channels on playback? Thanks!!!

Thank you. This was really really helpful! I have one question though: You mentioned if the gain was to low when recording - re-record by setting more gain at the interface. So why shouldn't I just boost the lowgain rec. with the (Track-) Volume (the one in the upper Menu / Track Menu?) instead?

Thanks, for the video! So, I have a Yamaha MG16XU, but when I select the VST audio system (Yamaha Steinberg USB Asio) it only shows two physical ports (Line 1, Line 2) instead of the 16 that should appear. Do you know what I can do to solve that problem?

Thank you sir

Do you know if Elements allows for multi-tracking beyond 2 tracks? Could a record a drum set for instance using multiple mics in Elements?

Steinberg cubase effects on the pan flutes.

Thanks!😎

Thanks a lot.

Hi jef , please do a video on vocal mixing techniques too.. easy to understand when you explain it

Hi Jef, I have been using Cubase Studio 5 since ancient times and am about to upgrade to C -10. Can you please tell me if my old projects will be workable in the new platform. Is C-10 backwards compatible?

Thank you

Good Tutorial videos, Jeff. Thank you. I have a question - I have recorded a few MIDI Tracks with external synth (not instrument track), then I added an audio track to record my vocal, set the input to mono channel 1 as you taught in this video. My problem is when I recorded the vocal, it also recorded the external synth tracks along with my vocal into my audio track! Can you please reply how to solve this problem?

Really need advice please! I want to start writing music again using Cubase. Some years ago I used to have a desktop, however now I own a laptop and will need an external sound card. Majority of the work is to be with VST instruments and Midi keyboard. I am considering audio interfaces but don't know if they can be used for VST work (and not audio). Could you please spare some advice as its been a long time for me. I am thinking of Focusrite Scarlet 2i2 or Behringer UMC404HD Audio Interface - would ether of those allow me to work with low latency in Midi signal and using VST only? ( Does the Midi keyboard connect to the interface directly or still to the PC/Laptop through a USB? I think the laptop I have should be sufficient: Intel Core i5 8300H, 8 Gig Ram, GeForce GTX-1060 (6 Gig video memory), SSD. Thank you in advance!

thank you.

I have always recorded my mic as stereo in then i choose left or right on the audio track. i don't know what the difference is with mono in but i hope its huge. Thankyou.

Jeff your the man! is there any tutorials on recording drum tracks with multiple mics? and how to mange these within cubase 10 please

😍😍😍

I've been trying to setup Cubase 11, connected by Harbinger L1402FX-USB mixer to record vocal/instruments or vocal with youtube karaoke in 1 vocal track, the other is youtube but when I plug in the mixer, my computer see a different device name "USB Audio Codec" instead of "Samsung UC Audio" which this mixer manual written. I click in Studio setup (Cubase), then Audio system, there's only 1 driver shown: "Generic Low Latency ASIO driver". Are the USB mixers required to download/Install driver to work with Cubase ? I also have struggled with I/O, bus adding. Hopefully you or somebody can help me out here.Thanks

Hi, help me to info, Which microphone to use in these video?

Great tutorial..I just subscribed! I checked out your home page. I'm concerned about upgrading to pro 10.5 as some of the glitches I'm reading about have me wondering if it's worth it right now. My biggest concern is routing. I'll be checking out more if your videos.

Can I setup cubase in "Import Options for MIDI Files" in a way that will use kontakt multipatch set up as if it was HALion ? I mean i save a kontakt multipatch with all the general midi I like and then cubase loads theme with program change on each track importing a midifile ready to be played as it does with HALion in the option "Import Options for MIDI Files" ? thanks
