What are you using this feature for in Cubase?
Guitar audio recording of a bass line to MIDI trigger MODO Bass. Also useful to sing melodies and make a synth or a sampler to play them.
@@samuelvelhomusic great ideas 👍
To change the sound fonts on already existing songs
@@notnowboi7795 yes 👍
VOCALOID COVERS!
Great explanation! Every question that popped into my head during your video was answered almost immediately. I learned a lot. Thanks!
Great 😁
Great tutorial. Thanks for showing that using Vari-Audio allows us to acquire meaning midi data with certain editing. Very helpful.
Thank you very much!
Exzellent video again! Thank you so much for all the effort (and time!) you are investing in the production of your videos! You are always showing some crucial details which can’t be found in other (albeit great) videos: Your clearly structured Dolby Atmos Video really »saved my life» a few days ago … 👍👍👍
Thanks, that’s always great to hear. I just try to explain it in the way I understand it and I guess that resonates with more people 😉.
Coming from Ableton Suite and now Cubase Pro this was extremely useful. Many thanks to you.
You are very welcome!
I thank you for all the info you provide in your very useful videos
My pleasure!
Thank you,helping me out.Keep up the good Work!
Thanks I will
Awesome review.. 👍
Thank you sir!
Very helpful. I can't thank you enough
Great 👍
Thanks man! You helped me a lot with this video! :-)
Great!
Short ,crisp & nice tutorial. thanks
👍
Thank you 💪
👊
Thanks dear🎉
Welcome 😊
Now that was useful. Thanks.
Good to hear!
ThankYou
You're welcome!
thank you
😁👍
thx!
You're welcome.
Man, this vocal is cursed.😂
I really appreciate the information though. You are awesome!
Ha ha 👍
Great video! The velocity at the end of some words seemed a bit off/the words did not seem to overlap perfectly. But I think is due to the attack, decay and release settings in the volume envelope inside Halion Sonic.
Good observation 👍
Well explained conversion from an audio track to midi. Would it work the same way if I used a guitar solo midi conversion and add an instrument such as a violin from NI to the midi track ? Thank you.
Thanks and yes that should work!
Very very useful Thanks a lot
Do you have a written transcript of that great lecture
Great 👍. I don’t have a written down version though.
@@LanewoodStudios AI going fast in 2024. Easy done with Resolve 18.5 or Premiere 2024
@@NickFromNetherlands sure there are many tools that can do this. Cubase has some nice options for this as well though.
Hello, can you please explain how to convert an audio drum loop (media bay), i.e. with kick snare, etc., into individual midi tracks... and then put them back together into a loop with these diff. tracks/ events... thank you very much
Thanks for the suggestion, I'll put it on the list of video ideas.
Hello, can you please tell me approximately when the video will come out. your list is probably very long, isn't it? Thank you very much
Sorry, can’t promise yet if or when I’m going there make that video.
+1 for such a video. Needed very much)
Not Bad.
Thanks!
Which cubase version you using?
Cubase 12 Pro
Could you please do a video with Melodyne to cover polyphonic voicing/chords?
I’ll put it on the list but currently don’t have Melodyne. Just the light free version that Steinberg gave away for free last year.
ahhhh...@@LanewoodStudios They'd probably give you a copy of the Studio version for demos. I've seen channels with much lower subscriber numbers receive a copy.
@@sekritskworl-sekrit_studios ha ha … ok, good to know 👍. It also means I currently have no experience with Melodyne. But interested to check it out.
@@LanewoodStudios As John McClane said in the film "Die Hard"...
..."Welcome to the party pal."
@@sekritskworl-sekrit_studios 🤣
1:59 is this available for Cubase Elements? Because no matter what I do I cannot see that menu.
Not sure but you can check it out over here: www.steinberg.net/cubase/compare-editions
I think cubase just stole my little producer’s heart😂

How to convert the midi track to audio track in cubase?
That’s the easy part. Use a virtual instrument like eg Halion Sonic (SE).
THANKS FOR REPLYING BUT I HAVE GOT YAMAHA 5000 @@LanewoodStudios
I WANT TO TAKE THE SEQUANCER TRAKS AND SPLIT THEM TO SEPRATE AUDIO TRACKS@@LanewoodStudios
@@philipssamuel5433 you need a midi cable from your PC to the keyboard if you want to play the midi in Cubase. Then you need to take audio out of the keyboard to the inputs of your audio interface in the PC. Then you can record what’s coming out of the keyboard.
are you dutch?
Very much so!
my midi wont play
Well there’s a lot of things that can be wrong there so you can try various things. Is your VSTi enabled? Is the midi in the range of your VSTi? What subtype midi volume? Etc ….
@@LanewoodStudios i figured it out, it wasn't monophonic
@@johnf-es6sb 👍
Nederlander ofnie?
Zeker!
You didn’t play the robotic voice on its own therefore we cannot distinguish the differences.
For example, when you use more pitch bend does this mean you used less note changes?
IS THERE A DIFFERENCE IN THE MIDI NOTES THEMSELVES when you use the pitch bend options? Please play the robot voice on its own. Otherwise the whole example is wasted for the viewer.
Yes I understand now that you would want to hear the robotic voice separately to more clearly hear the difference. I tried to explain the difference in the midi notes. The midi notes appear to be based on the pitch segments in variaudio so the same for all options. The pitch bend data with the static option appears to be based on the deviation of the pitch segment from the absolute note value. With the continuous option the pitch data follows all the small pitch changes that are detected in variaudio over the whole length of the pitch segment.
@@LanewoodStudios many thanks for the explanation
please get to to point quicker less talk about nothing more getting to point
I do provide the chapters in the video so you you can immediately jump to the action that you’re interested in. Some people ARE interested to know a bit more about the background.
HI. I imported 4 audio tracks at once. The strange thing is that clicking on a single one selects all 4 tracks and I see in the right corner above each track a symbol (never seen) like 3 atoms in a triangle. What does it mean? Thank you
I think you probably grouped them by mistake. See ua-cam.com/video/bLappO4xqcc/v-deo.htmlsi=5jCyhVDRB0Qbkiu2
