🔥 Cubase 11 Tutorial - BEGINNERS Lesson 1 - Getting Started 🔥

[@jasonb2089]

Got back into messing around with synths after many years away (used Cubase in the late 90s). Got a copy of Ableton with a Novation midi controller purchase, but never really jived with it. A week ago, I downloaded a trial version of Cubase and purchased this tutorial. WOW! In the two days it took me to work through the lessons, I learned more than 3 years of fiddling with Ableton on my own. Regardless of what DAW you choose, I HIGHLY recommend the BtP tutorials. Will definitely be purchasing one of your mixing courses in the future!

[@Borntoproduce]

Thanks so much!

[@truthseeker630]

Bought the package and just created a track! I was able to use the techniques taught to add a little creativity of my own. I must say, just awesome learning! Jon and Jay really teach this course well. To be able to do this from scratch without any prior knowledge of using Cubase just gives a feeling of great power of creativity and accomplishment. Thank you Jon and Jay for this package!

Starting my journey in Cubase with you :D!

[@pmadamson]

I have struggled with Cubase for the last 8 years, having mastered the early versions in the early 90's which were very intuitive. The Modern version is difficult if you have had time out of about 20 years and coming back to it is not easy. This Tutorial is by far the best i have found but has one weakness. It does not tell you how to set up playback. I followed the instructions but couldn't hear a thing. I had a similar problem with elements and artist. I am contemplating moving up to Pro after the 30 day trial but will only do so if I can solve this playback issue. Oddly, if I imported my own song to Cubase from Zoom R24 (wav) or a midi file it played back with no problems. My Zoom has a USB setting which works for youtube playback and it's own mixer which works for youtube playback but for some reason it won't playback my Cubase composition. Having read various Forums there are other people out there with similar frustrations and while it may be nice to use a DAW for recording original material the old Multitrack method of recording is so much easier and those machines from Zoom, and Tascam and others are still going strong. Thanks for the upload, very helpful but needs some instruction on setting up the sound system before diving in.

[@Borntoproduce]

Hey, thanks so much for the detailed feedback. Problems with playback are 'normally' very rare, but it does happen. We made this video to problem solve various issues. Use the time stamps to navigate kzbin.info/www/bejne/hIazoJiLgch4gtE

[@pmadamson]

@@Borntoproduce Thanks for getting back and providing the link. Good to say I am now getting sound out. That said I'm making some progress and thanks for kick starting me but that program has so many options and screens that I just wish someone would produce something like the Atari Notator programs which were both easy and effective.I suspect that many of the modern day programmers are losing their audience by over complicating things and including features that many people will not use at all. I applaud what you are doing though and I'm sure some people will get to grips with this monster of a program. Cubase is even more frustrating when you consider the way they price things in favour of newbies and stop supporting versions to force us to pay up several times for the same programs. I've gone from early Atari to Sibelius on an Acorn and back to Cubase on PC's so have spent an incredible amount over the years while my Multi tracks have been going strong for years and bringing me some income from my home recordings. Keep up the great work you are doing.

[@joanygaard]

@@pmadamson I've had issues with playback as well, to me it seems like the problem is that the typical "home PC" setup has one shared output sound device shared across the whole windows/mac, while CuBase expects a separate reserved output device - which is probably more common in a "studio setup". This is a problem when you both want to listen to the tutorials and play with CuBase at the same time. What works for me is to setup a different output sound device in windows (maybe you can use your monitor/screen as a output sound device?), and reserve the "good" sound device for CuBase. Hopes this helps someone.

[@PowerRedBullTypology]

@@pmadamson I _TOTALLY_ get what you mean about the newer cubases not feeling intuitive. Actually, few daws seem to work as intuitively as the old cubase version to me (although I never tried logic because I'm a PC user). My preference for the old cubase goes so far that till a few months ago I still used the last version of cubase vst 32, even though it was quite a challenge to get it to work on windows 10 and although the sound quality is inferior. However, since I do cubase most for the idea and composition part about it, it was most important that I liked working on it. Mos software would run on it just fine (even huge 64 bit kontakt libraries when using J-bridge to get around the memory limitations) Now I'm trying to learn the newer cubase and it feels quite annoying that even the simple option you're going to use the whole time are hidden while the screen is covered in options you might never use. Suddenly I need to watch a tutorial to learn how to do basic things, while in vst I could just work on it when I saw it for the first time and did not even knew how to play any music (my dad used the software and I borrowed it)

[@pmadamson]

@@PowerRedBullTypology Thanks for reassuring me I'm not alone. I think part of the problem stems from Software programmers getting carried away with improvements that they seem to overlook the basics and the obvious such as that Interpretation button that seemed to make the score look right in one click. I remember years ago buying an improved (wont slag off a great keyboard manufacturer) keyboard and they seemed to have forgot a digital display on it so if you found a great sound you couldn't identify so easily. Even rewind on cubase uses a strange symbol instead of the standard arrow. If it wasn't for my standalone multi track I would have given recording by now.

what operating system on a mac cubase 11 will work

[@WyattLite-n-inn]

So how would you compare the two? Do you miss Reason?

[@grateful4068]

@@WyattLite-n-inn As a DAW, I do not miss Reason at all. Cubase has a learning curve, but it is essentially all powerful. Like comparing a god to an ant. But I still use Reason, as the Rack Plugin, inside Cubase. Upgrading to Cubase made Reason's instrument stack more powerful. So I don't miss Reason exactly. All of the instruments, effects and players I used in Reason are still used daily. In Cubase. :)

Does this help for creating mockups for film scores?

[@Borntoproduce]

Hey Trevor. Not precisely, we don't get into proper scoring, only MIDI note programming and very basic music theory. What it will teach, is how Cubase works, and a lot of its functions, so you can then use it how ever you want. If you have not used Cubase before then I still recommend it, just to get used to using it :)

[@Borntoproduce]

You can simply click and drag the audio samples from the right side (media bay) directly into the project as we mention at 4.35. You don't necessarily need the sampler track. Cubase is a steep learning curve and would be far worse without beginner tutorials :) Don't give up. Sorry no 1-to-1

[@alexislace]

Awesome video thank you! I am planning on buying Cubase 11 and your full beginners course on your website. Just a question, I will be ok with just Cubase 11, right? There was no software(like a previous version) that needs to be in place already, correct? Basically what I mean is that it's not an add on. I am just confused because I am seeing a lot of different Cubase packs 🙈 Thanks again!

[@alexislace]

Oh and also, as the box only contains a code, say my laptop dies and I need to get a new one, will I be able to use the code again on my new laptop? That worries me a little as my current laptop is kind of on its way out of the world of the living 😆

[@Borntoproduce]

Cubase 11 is the full version, not an add on

[@Borntoproduce]

Yes you can use the code again on a different computer :)

[@alexislace]

@@Borntoproduce Fantastic thank you so much! And last question I promise :) but will a new laptop with 8GB RAM definitely be enough to run it? I'd get one with 16GB RAM if I could but it really is unaffordable :(

Thank you for the videos and I'm using an iMac (2010), old and want to upgrade but have to buy a new Mac and a lot of software doesn't connect to it right now. I've been looking at videos of Logic vs Cubase. Don't know what to do at the moment, but like what you have shown and if I was to do Cubase, which one to start with. I'm looking forward to do short film, music production, etc. Can you make any suggestions? Does Cubase run in the Mac? Are you using a PC? The new Mac is expensive and especially the MacPro.

[@Borntoproduce]

Hey Kenneth. Both Jay and I have used Logic and Cubase. Honestly, they are both very good so you can't go far wrong. We favour Cubase as the work flow is (in our opinion) quicker and more streamlined, but you'll get people arguing the other way around for sure. I personally use PC these days, and Cubase for me is rock solid, though nothing wrong with using it on Mac of course. At the end of the day, DAW's are a very personal choice, but if you know what you are doing, it does not matter which one you are using.

Yeah, I tried to "try out" this tutorial last year and decided to try again today... when I go to the work files I tried to download it - but it needed to be extracted... so I tried to extract it and I can get a folder onto my desktop --- but Cubase file lookup doesn't give me the option to open up the "audio" although I can see the BTP file in the Cubase file search, but there is no bullet to its left to open up anything underneath it. Once again I am dismayed.

[@Borntoproduce]

Hi Roger, sounds like you have a very common issue in Cubase, easily solved. Watch this video vimeo.com/451164327

[@rogermitchell2463]

@@Borntoproduce Thanks. But this did NOT address the problem. The file -without the left bullet - is NOT on the bottom and is followed by other files that DO have left margin bullets that DO open.

[@Borntoproduce]

@@rogermitchell2463 Hi Roger. Did you extract the work files from the compressed file? Meaning the file you download, you open that up or view it, and you take the folder inside and put that on your desktop. You do not directly access the file you download in Cubase as it's a compressed file, so you need to take the files out before you can use them. Hope that helps

[@rogermitchell2463]

@@Borntoproduce Thanks again. After extracting them I am left with a "BTP Cubase 11 Beginners FREE Workfiles" in a folder on my desktop. Included in it are five files: BTP-HT!-Pluck-05-C and Kick 01 and Snare 01 and Top Loop 04 and Top Loop 32. HOWEVER - when I open Cubase (as directed in the KZbin video and go to find the file in the "search for file" area I FIND IT,,, but there is no BULLET alongside it It doesn't show any files underneath it. And there are other files listed below it (of different stuff) that DO have bullets that DO open - or show stuff underneath them. YES I DID EXTRACT THE FILES. Once doing that I DO need to access those files from Cubase (that's what the video shows anyway) but I am not finding their accessibility.

@@rogermitchell2463 Hi Roger. I don't know what you mean by 'bullet'. Can you please email me a screen shot of the files showing in Cubase, perhaps i'll spot what the problem is if I can see it. My email jon at borntoproduce dot com

[@Borntoproduce]

You may have the missing content issue, uninstall Cubase and then re-install from the Steinberg download assistant. Make sure you use the big download. We talk about it here if you need more info kzbin.info/www/bejne/hIazoJiLgch4gtE

Just over 4GB, but the zip contains last years beginners tutorial in it as well (it's given away as a free bonus with this course) :)

@@scottsmith8338 Hey Scott, those 5 wav files are the right ones and all you need for now. You do not need to buy the tutorial to follow along. In the zip you downloaded there should be 'Kick 01.wav' that is the sample you need for lesson one. Let me know if you need any more help. All the best

Im connecting Cubase 11 pro to a NEW laptop with Windows 10 but yet I hear is crackling when a kick drum is being played. Do I need a new audio card, or simply use the UR22C audio interface that came with the pack?

[@Borntoproduce]

@@vengastyle8248 Hey, yes I would use the UR22 that came with the pack. Make sure you download the latest drivers for it. Then in Cubase go to 'Studio', 'Studio Setup', 'Audio System' and make sure it is selected as the ASIO driver :) You should'nt get any crackling

@@Borntoproduce Thank you!!

[@stalinapproved2762]

Why does it take so long to load? If you know, please tell me how to fix. Also thank you for this

[@Borntoproduce]

Cubase loads pretty quickly for us, perhaps 10 seconds. Might be your hard drive speed, but it could be a plugin or instrument that is causing the problem. You can see the instruments/plugins being loaded on the start up screen, if it pauses for a long time on one of them then, that is likely the problem
