Oct 30, 2009 06:58 pm Okay, when i record on my fast track pro it places each input as simply left or right. Its a full pan in playback as well. So if i record, say, my acoustic. It only plays through my left speaker. Which is a pain in the butt, and i want to be able to apply effects and such to each channel seperately. I'm trying to figure out this in cubase now. But i'm totally lost :\ i went threw all the tutorials awhile ago but forgot a good 75% of the crap i learned haha. I'd like to be able to either split the channels of the file after recording and put it center, or record audio into two separate tracks right from the get go. btw, i use cubase 4 LE. |

Oct 30, 2009 07:07 pm Btw, if for whatever reason recording in mono will not let me pan the track center, could i do something like copy the track and paste it in the right side, keeping the levels equal. If my logic is sound that should be just like it was a stereo track, just slightly more annoying right? Though if possible i'd really like to find a way to just record each channel into a separate stereo track. Just something to make this less of a pain. Lol i'm starting to confuse myself so i'm gonna shut up now :] |

Oct 30, 2009 07:19 pm Ou! Figured it out. Nevermind :] For anyone else in the future having this issue and searching for it, or if you're just curious: When i started the track, i selected mono. Then for the input selected left for one channel one, Right for channel two. works just dandy now. |

Oct 30, 2009 07:37 pm vst connections, setup a new "mono in" (inputs) and in your track window, "select mono in" and "stereo out" then just pan it wherever you want, left, right or anywhere in between. |

Oct 30, 2009 11:21 pm Thanks deon :] Hey is there any way to do a "mix" function on here (haha that sounds reallllly dumb). What i mean is, take 2 channels and mix them in where the combined level output will be the same, but you can change percentages of which signal is getting more volume (like, right would be 30% and left would be 70% of the total volume, then slowly increase to 50/50) |

Oct 31, 2009 05:07 pm Haha this is gonna be tough to explain. I doubt they have this anyway. But here it goes :] Okay, lets say i have two waveforms each at 10db. So combined in a mix lets say they equal 20db (yes i know thats not how volume works, bear with me though). But then lets say i only want 10 db output for their COMBINED volume. Is there any way to control the "mix" of just those two files, while keeping the combined volume equal (assuming both signals are the same volume to begin with)? I know i've seen similar functions on some effects, like the "mix" between the clean signal and the processed one (like on a reverb). If this is still confusing, don't even bother haha. I'm confusing myself and its really not worth it. Heck, i doubt I'd even save myself 5 mins time per mix. |

Oct 31, 2009 09:54 pm do you mean combining the function of the faders on the 2 channels? like syncing them, so if you move one fader slider the other moves with? if so, in cubase, you select the 2 channels holding down the shift button, then right click over one of them, in the menu that appears then pick "link channels" that'll connect the 2. so whenever you move the slider on one it'll do it for both. you can also send say your drums to all one group track, once you got the drums sorta how you want em, then send those tracks "outputs" to a group channel. useful for using, for example, one compressor for the whole kit, so you dont have to kill your computer with insert fx on each channel running down the cpu. not sure this is what you mean though. maybe you mean compressing or limiting? so you got 2 guitars for eg, and you dont want them going over a certain vol, so lets say, they are sometimes hitting say -15db and you want then to stay at -20, you can use either a compressor or a limiter for that. the compressor, once you set it, will squash the peaks so it doesnt go over your -20db, or a limiter will just stop it completley once it hits yor desierd vol. depending on what you signal you wanna tame you could use either of them but mostly i would go the compressor. |

Nov 10, 2009 03:56 am Hi Fragile, In Logic I would send to stereo out and also to a buss, by adjusting the mix between the two I can use more or less of the fx'ed buss sound in relation to the straight send. In Cubase I would send another "Failed to Parse xml" warning to remind them it's time to grow up and implement xml 2, some companies seem to think they should be making a profit on antique formats like xml 1.1-which is little better than a standard MIDI file. |
