Create Ethereal Pads Out Of Any Sample | Cubase Secrets with Dom

In this Cubase tutorial video, Dom Sigalas shows you how to create ethereal pad sounds from samples you already have on your hard drive. Dom takes a sample of vocals chosen from the MediaBay and uses the granular synthesizer and spectral oscillator synth engines in Padshop 2 to create a dreamy, airy pad, highlighting more of the versatility of Cubase and its virtual instruments for music making, music production and sound design in any genre.

I've learned practically everything I know about Cubase from Dom, Steinberg please keep him around!

[@M4T]

Once again you demonstrated that we don't need any 3rd party plugin to make great music and achieve great sound quality in Cubase. I mostly use what is in the package so I learn my tools and I spend a very limited money and time with plugins that, at the end of the day, won't make me a better producer I'm afraid 😁 I did not know about the tuner tip, thanks so much for that as well !

[@g.o.9513]

Love the rationale here. Stephanie, hope you have more and more great sessions with Cubase.

[@Byron101_]

I use PADSHOP a lot for sounddesign tasks. Padshop is a great onstock VSTi Sampler!

[@eeezdee5251]

Clear, concise and well done. Thank you Dom.

[@Diego_SoundDesigner]

As always, an incredible tutorial Dom! Compliments and thank you very much for sharing such precious wisdom. See you soon! 🙏

[@strayportal]

I've literally been searching for this for years

[@andresstaubli5918]

Dom, thank you very much for this amazing tutorial. 🐞

[@Mkshoffmeister]

Best Padshop tutorial i've ever seen. Finally i understand that thing :D

[@skornia8101]

exactly haha I've watched like 3 videos trying to understand the granular synth

[@BassBusMusic]

Brilliant video, thanks Dom. Really clearly informed. 👍

[@lucsolomusic]

This is awesome, sounds like the pads in my Roland JD-990, but then totally custom!

[@aquelay]

Extremely informative!

[@DileepaMangala]

Much love Dom ❤❤

[@blewsyboy]

Lotsa fun!

[@DaveDickens]

Great tutorial Dom, thank you. Cheers Dave

[@soft-giant]

Just bought padshop 2 and couldn't drop sample. So lucky! ... Maybe because was unsupported bit rate. Now it works :)))

[@hosseinsaraiee]

You are the best

[@lens8933]

amazing

[@ErixSamson]

fascinating

[@RogerBadgerDSFlyer]

Amazing. The only limitation is me!

[@SkPsycho]

Do we have this option in cubase 12 left click to add nots and left click to delete .... Or can you you remove that tools bar u right click a mouse and add rub only because do something with because not all producer can play a keyboard and cubase work flow is slow because of that ..

[@leiocerayt]

I would use Padshop 2 more, but it is really CPU hungry, especially with the spectral oscillator activated.

[@ArtForMusic]

Great Dom! 👍🏻 I was just starting to explore Padshop, these days…Do you also read minds? 😳😁

[@statikredcell]

What chords are you playing at the end?

[@jensschettler1732]

This is a "fachkraft" germany needs.

[@rogercabo5545]

Cool content! But why pianists lean while playing legato chords? 😊

[@mozizo11]

that's leangato-, pianists legato

[@mariorivera3312]

Nice one by Seth Rollins from WWE

[@PanopticMotion]

PADSHOP 2 should just built into Halion

[@swayjaayy5495]

Great video. One thing I realized tonight that its pointless to try and make mysicnin the industry. Theres is so many people making music its ridiculous. Music creators are literally grains in the sand.

Dom, Please be my dad

[@sathyanarayanasathish831]

So sad software

[@jazzdude7014]

guys go through all the PadShop PRESETS (1+2) and learn to revervse engineer the presets! Esp the MOD Matrix... then combine 2 or even 3 Padshops into one preset, changing over time.... (use the same midiport). Padshop is endless FUN! I bought Padshop pro back when it came out! I think it was in Cubase since 6.5 (2012!), but with limitations, it was abt Upgrade 99 Euro back then ... now its free for Cubase/Nuendo pro owners.... It was one of the first Granular Synth on the market.

[@jazzdude7014]

I keep coming back to this video to learn tips. I'm creating my own pads from sampled acoustic guitar and dobro sounds, I'm really liking the textures I can create with this plugin in Cubase!
