Cubase le user guide1/3/2024 Remaining on an audio processing tip, Cubase 12 includes tweaks to its Crossfade functionality with the addition of an advanced Crossfade editor, which adds more visual feedback, a range of new operations and quicker navigation between multiple crossfades. It’s certainly a nice addition – with some decent presets to get you started – though there are third-party offerings that provide more glitchy rhythmic options. Anyone aware of Cableguys ShaperBox will understand the general way in which this type of plugin works. FX Modulator is an LFO-controlled effects unit where multiple effects (such as pan, filtering, pitch-change and time-shift) can be modulated by independently customisable waveshapes to automate one or more selected parameters. On the plugin side there are also two new offerings. Any fans of Brian Eno or the minimal impressionist composer Harold Budd will love this.įans of Brian Eno or minimal impressionist composer Harold Budd will love Verve This additional layer adds an extra element to the sustain portion of the sound and when combined with the delay and reverb effects – which include a good modulated reverb – allow you to create some excellent atmospheric tones. Rather than just being another ‘nice’ piano library, Verve combines samples of a soft felt piano with a customisable texture layer. On the sound creation side of things, one of the bigger additions is the piano-based instrument Verve. There is a lot more to the Chord Track than this, as it can also be used as a powerful composition tool, but the audio-based chord detection alone is a really great feature – try it on your favourite song for some interesting insights into how they are written. The Chord Track can then be used to inform further edit choices. This ties in neatly with C12’s new Audio to MIDI function that can analyse any selected audio and turn it into Chord Events on the Chord Track. This makes musically appropriate edits easier (including pitch quantisation) and transposing audio to create harmony parts much quicker. Scale Assistant (introduced in C11 and previously available within the MIDI-based Key Editor) allows you to make changes that fit within the select key or scale. VariAudio, the pitch editing and correction engine in Cubase, had some great technical improvements in Cubase 10, and while C12 doesn’t expand on these, it adds Scale Assistant integration. Besides manual and hitpoint-based editing (and even quantisation), there are also many other creative uses of these features, and they get a big thumbs-up. There will obviously still be potential audio artefacts caused by the stretching process – though with small changes these are minimal – and slicing drums the conventional way still has its place, but this is a great option to have available. One important aspect of this is the addition of a Phase-Coherent AudioWarp button which allows you to avoid problems associated with warping a single performance recording captured with multiple microphones (such as a full drum kit). You’ll have to commit to their subscription model, which not everyone is a fan of.Ībleton Live has traditionally lacked a few features geared toward recording-heavy projects, but what it does, it does very well.
