new to Cubase SX

how do I rewire each reason track to each cubase track?

Crazy Dave · #2 (**permalink**) Sep 17, 04

yup you can... mind you it's a lot easyer to make the track in cubase, and use reason as a synth.

Rebirth also works,,, but the track has to be made Rebirth, and played in rebirth

just figured it out... now I can finally use VSTs instead of the pissy reason FXs

Crazy Dave · #4 (**permalink**) Sep 17, 04

hmmmmm I thought you could use it with the Re-wire, that way you can do all that the VST would do,,, plus better audio in/out.

I find using Reason => Cubase SX to be a bit of a waste.

Just download a bunch of VST instruments, there are ones out there that would wipe their asses with Reason if they were dirty enough to have asses.

Check out the Crystal, Cube, Junglist, or Mercury 1 (its got 4 asses actually)

I've yet to try the Sub-bass VST. Sounds nice... well if you can say it has sound.

the thing about reason is that there a lot of nice refills out there that, with a little editing, sound really nice...

edit:

I'm having really bad problems with latency too... can I work around it?

now to get things to work with my keyboard

Also, V-station, Prophet 53, and LM7 are awesome. Congrats on using Cubase SX, it is an excellent production program with lots to offer. Ever since I started using Cubase SX my music has rocked. Zzzz..Got to crash, what a night..(-_-)Y

are there pattern sequencers for this program?

Rytalin · #12 (**permalink**) Sep 20, 04

^not if you mean traditional 16 step X0X pattern sequencing.
but screw that bullshit anyways. Cubase's midi sequencing capabilities are so much more flexible.

you can set a midi track up as a drum track though, which'll the sequencing process a bit more clicky and a bit less drawy.

(Oh my god, I just said screw roland x0x drum machines...)

all I want to do is set up the key editor... it won't let me... I swear this is like the fax machine that eats up the paper...

just make a midi track, draw in a bar with the pencil, then double click on the blank bar to open up the key editor.
unless i'm missing something and your problem is something totally different..

mux · #15 (**permalink**) Sep 23, 04

Have you considered using Ableton Live 4?

I'm thinking of ditching Logic and using Live. The remixing capabilities are pretty insane.

see... I knew it would be something ridiculously easy when I was told how to actually do it... THANK YOU! :)

Cubase SX is so completely awesome. I never get bored of it, because I am learning something new and useful everyday. For instance, I just learned how to use the automation properly (no more fade-ins, haha). Is there anything this program can't do? I have wanted to sequence midi at a different tempo than the song's audio, is this possible? Well, I used to own Cubase audio, then Cubase 5 and now I use SX. I picked up a proper crack off Ebay. The only reason I would switch to Logic is for the plug-ins.

(val)Liam · #18 (**permalink**) Sep 23, 04

honestly... I still find myself opening up reason instead... but I have the option now...

a crack off Ebay?

so are you saying you downloaded Cubase SX for free, and paid for a crack???

that's hilarious dude :)

Well, I had DJ Mark P's copy of SX and it sucked (he sucks since he stopped producing), couldn't get the midi or mixer working properly. THe problem was that the file was way smaller than what it should have been, missing DLL's I guess. Then I got a copy of SX from Ebay and I've never been happier, no problems whatsoever.
Hey, I've just finished a few trax and I will be uploading them to Zed.ca. I hope you enjoy them. However, before I load it up and make the "announcement," I need to find a hardware sampler to filter my 202 bassline, as it is too heavy on top on the 106 bassline. I personally like it fine, but I think a nice filter would be dope. I am going to make a call or two to see who has a decent sampler kiking around.
Hey I called you ^^ but I hear you were out of town, I rememeber you said you had some good monitors and I was hoping to book an hour to mix my levels. Give me a call..
