Hey Chris, use numpad 8 and 9 to open up and increase the efitor. 4 5 and 6 to load instruments audio or sampler channel....use that a lot.

My probably most used key command are custom ones that switch between predefined track visibility settings in the mixer: STRG+Num1 to Num4 for presets 1 to 4: all tracks, tracks plus group tracks fixed left, track plus sends fixed left, groups and sends. It helps prevent having to scroll horizontal too much in the mixer which is always a pita.
@96ivanina 4 жыл бұрын
I created a couple of useful ones myself: - The key above tab (don't know its name) for activate and deactivate tracks. - Shift + F1 to open/close the instrument linked to an instrument track. I use kontakt a lot, this one is saving me. Thank you for these useful shortcut, i'll try tok memorize all of them XD

I guess another shortcut worth mentioning is „SHIFT+*“ (Shift and asterisk), for „retroactive record“. I don’t need it very often, but it’s really helpful when you’ve been „just noodling around“ and think „oh wait, that wasn’t actually that bad, I wish I recorded that!“
@paulsaunders193 4 жыл бұрын
Thanks for that shortcut. Retroactive record has saved me several times when I've been playing around to come up with ideas. Then I can never remember where it is in the menus...
@kdcyp 4 жыл бұрын
Thanks for that. Is it only MIDI and not audio? I looked in the manual and it mentions retrospective MIDI recording that utilizes the MIDI buffer, once you turn it on in settings.
@alessandroquatela 4 жыл бұрын
One of my useful shortcut is the copy paste by dragging: - select a region or a group of midi notes - point the mouse on that region and press "option" key ( "scissor on a square" will appear) - drug the region, or selected midi notes, that will be copied where you drop it
@royshakked 4 жыл бұрын
Chris, been watching you weekly for a few months now and I gotta say, every time I think I've got it all figured out you always manage to show me a different, more efficient way. alt+scissors!? Seriously :).Amazing. BTW, shift+delete is a great time saver for just deleting entire sections between the locators, (without the select tool.) Thanks for your work. Keep bringin it!

As a brand new Cubase user videos like yours are unbelievably helpful for learning the DAW I plan to use for life!! Really appreciate the time and effort you put into helping others further their passions! Only one thing threw me off in this video. The shortcut for removing a selection and shifting everything that follows. I kept trying shift & del, which of course kept bringing up the warning for deleting a track with data. Then I realized it's shift & backspace! Now I know it, that will be quite useful!

I customized my shortcuts in a heavy way, and my favorites are "ö" to link and unlink selected tracks; "Strg-Alt-NUM+"/"Strg-Alt-NUM-" to show or hide selected tracks and "Strg-Shift-first letter" to show or hide the racks in the console window.

Thanks Chris, even after using Cubase/Nuendo for a decade, still learning things! As someone who's producing a lot of voice over / podcast, my absolute number one is a custom one: Direct Offline Process a HPF (at around 600Hz) to plosives, breathing, krrr sounds or anything where unintentional/uncontrolled moving air has lots of low end. I'm using bx_cleansweep and at one point I had multiple instances installed and hotkeyed, that would all have different freq values as their default setting. Oh and also I removed "Z" for track zoom. When working with multiple automation lanes and accidentally hitting that key, all your other carefully prepared zoom settings for each track or lane go to sh*t.

In the MIDI window, if you do control+left or right with a midi note selected it'll move the note over by the quantize amount. Also, if you hold alt and hover your mouse over the note it'll turn into the scissor tool. One quick key that I made that is super handy for me is for "Bounce Selection" and I made it to be shift+alt+3 (stolen from Pro Tools). I use this a lot for when I use the audio alignment tool and need to break the audio into smaller chunks for it to work right.

Great video again as usual Chris! Definitely one to bookmark and refer back to. I love using shortcuts and I've been learning them slowly but there's so many it's taking a while to learn them all. BTW, I have a Logitech G510s keyboard with 3 banks of 18 G-keys and a Logitech G13 gameboard with 3 banks of 24 G-keys. These keys are programmable so I can put any shortcuts on them, or even macros (a series of keypresses). I'm sure they'll be really useful once I decide which shortcuts to put where, but at the moment I'm still overwhelmed by the sheer number of them!

Hi Chris, Great session as always! =) You activated the offline processing window by one of the shortcuts which is great but is there an easy way to see which events in the project that are offline processed? When I want to bounce a clean project without any effects I often miss the effects that I have added via offline processing. It would be great if there was a way to highlight all offline processed events in one go in somehow. Do you know any way to do that? =) Cheers!
@mixdownonline 4 жыл бұрын
I don't think there is. The way I use OP is when I want to add effects on some events and commit to them, like a recording. So if I bounce a clean project, those will be part of the "clean" tracks like if I had recorded them with effects.

Hey Chris! Quite a fan of your content. Simple and precise! I was looking for a specific shortcut for days on cubase (with a control surface). In Pro tools, you can Ctrl+Shift+ClickonTrack and the control surface will automatically set its bank over this selected tracks. I am having a hard time seeing all the motorized fader go crazy whenever I switch the banks to reach a specific track. Do you know any tip that could help me out on this ?

But now after about 2 years, they are starting to peel off. Would be kind of you to name the keyboard that you use, I work with Microsoft, not Apple. Cheers from Munich.
