This video explains what those represent and how they're used.Using Cubase Chord PadsMusic and Other Musings2026-01-01 | I show how you can configure your MIDI keyboard to control the Chord Pads feature in this video, including the use of Chord Modifier keys.
At the end of the video I dabble aimlessly with the Chord Track and Scale assistant.Using the Scale Assistant in CubaseMusic and Other Musings2026-01-01 | A demonstration of the Scale Assistant feature in Cubase. This feature enables detecting the possible scale being used in your MIDI events, as well as guiding other MIDI events you create to apply to the scale indicated.

It doesn’t seem like you can control the level for each instrument that is sent to the master effect. You can choose which instruments do though, which is great with delay or reverb.
The key/scale features of this device are really nice to have, as they weren’t featured in the EMX-1.Capturing Multiple MIDI Tracks through a Multi-Timbral VST Instrument (Halion Sonic)Music and Other Musings2025-12-20 | This video shows how to route multiple MIDI tracks into a multitimbral VST instrument, such as Halion Sonic. It also shows how you can capture the audio from each track independently.Cubase MIDI Sequencing - Using MIDI Step InputMusic and Other Musings2025-12-19 | Step Input allows you to insert note events or chords one at a time, without worrying about the exact timing. This is useful, for example, when you know the part to record but are not able to play it exactly as you want it.

I had the Swing using CV note out multiplied to both the OSC 1 and OSC 2 input, gate output of the swing into Envelope Trigger input…. Instead of MIDI
I took the LFO output and put it into Attenuator inputs. Took attenuator output and ran it to filter Cutoff input. I was just using LFO to give texture to the filter, and then sometimes switching oscillators to pulse wave so I could use Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) for the same textual affect. Turning on oscillator sync and turning frequency off OSC2Using EQ to create separation between instruments in CubaseMusic and Other Musings2025-08-22 | Made this quick and dirty screencast for a friend to show them how one can use the EQ features in Cubase to reduce muddiness in a recorded song.Using a MIDI Footswitch controller to Toggle the Bypass on Amplitube PedalsMusic and Other Musings2025-08-07 | Using the Momentary MIDI foot switch controller provided by Notes and Volts with Amplitube 5 in Cubase 14.

This is a great song writing tool for guitarists because you can use built-in "patterns" for various genres to accompany you, recording the arrangement with chord changes across 6 parts (intro, main A/verse, main b/chorus, 2 fills, and ending) to assemble a song. Or you can manually sequence everything yourself manually if needed with 16 tracks of instrumentation.
I also demo using a pop song I imported the MIDI for. It supports imports of General MIDI Level 1 files, as well as Standard MIDI File + Yamaha XG (Extended General MIDI).Test Sequence with Akai MMT-8, Access Virus TI2, and Arturia DrumbruteMusic and Other Musings2025-05-18 | Briefly demonstrates a performance using multiple tracks looped, with track muting/unmuting on the Alesis MMT-8.Demonstrating the Cubase 14 MediaBay Audio Preview toolMusic and Other Musings2025-05-07 | Using Circles 1987 drum loop samples in this demonstration with previously recorded Waldorf Iridium instrumentation.

You cannot turn off MIDI output for the parts you are not intending to use with an external device.
Additionally it will not send MIDI through the device to an external instrument, for a channel/part that you are using an external MIDI controller to control. The sequencer will output MIDI on a channel only AFTER it has been recorded. So you can’t use it solely as a sequencer for other devices.
You have to enable a sound on a part using the Electribe’s internal sound engine, record the sequence using its internal sounds as your monitor / reference, then turn the sound source to an “Audio In” option to disable the sound engine for that Part/MIDI channel.Roland MC-303 - Diagnostic Test Mode / Factory ResetMusic and Other Musings2024-06-18 | I demonstrate how to run through the test mode for the Roland MC-303.
Make sure you back-up your data using the SysEx dump (hold SHIFT + FUNC + Keypad 16, then press ENTER) to transmit a backup of your data to your computer using SysEx Librarian (Mac) or MIDIOX (Windows), as this feature performs a factory reset at the end of the process.Controlling VST Plugin settings with a MIDI Controller in Cubase 13Music and Other Musings2024-04-13 | In this video I show you how to map the knobs and buttons on your MIDI controller to controls within Cubase, including Quick Controls that can be used with VST plugins and effects.
Keep in mind this is limited to controlling Cubase and VST plugins and effects, not external hardware synthesizers. I'm pretty sure those require actual MIDI CC # assignments configured for your MIDI controller itselfKangook KX-1 Komfort Solo assemblyMusic and Other Musings2023-12-04 | I decided to document the assembly process for a Kangook KX-1 Komfort Solo trike.

You can also apply icons to the folders to represent each group of applications you create a stack folder for.Fall 2023 Drive - Erwin, TennesseeMusic and Other Musings2023-11-01 | Took a drive up Rock Creek Road in Erwin, Tennessee to catch the fall colors and possibly falling leaves. Using a GoPro Max 360Rendering audio from external instrument in Cubase 12 ProMusic and Other Musings2023-05-24 | I've become accustomed to capturing audio from VST instruments by using the "Render in Place" option in Cubase 12 Pro, thus freeing my CPU from needing to generate audio in realtime. This also makes it possible to share sessions with others that don't have the same VST instrument plugins.
This tutorial shows you how to configure Cubase to route the audio into an Output channel so that you can capture each separate instrument in a separate audio channel. I demonstrate this using an Alesis QSR sound module I recently purchased.Music Template DemoMusic and Other Musings2023-03-31 | I'm working on a template for music recording in Cubase 12, I just kind of unmute tracks on the fly showing the structure of an example song.How to create a Mute group in Groove Agent SE 5Music and Other Musings2023-03-16 | Doesn't seem like you can do this using Sample Tracks in Cubase, but you can assign multiple pads to an exclusive group, otherwise known as a Mute Group, so that the closed hats mute the open hat sample.Rocket League_20230222213921Music and Other Musings2023-02-23 | ...Rocket League_20220119085035Music and Other Musings2023-02-23 | Rocket League® Still A Show-Off (BRONZE) Score a goal while reversing #PlayStationTrophyDual Mics for Acoustic GuitarMusic and Other Musings2023-02-17 | I recorded a guitar part using 2 microphones, one placed near the sound hole for a fuller tone, and one near the fretboard with a more sensitive condenser mic.
