I always change this Cubase setting (and you probably should too!)

[@NyoraiFidesTV]

You know what...it would be great to have a nice video that explains all those metering scales, their case uses and also what are the best practice for loudness since the mastering has ended (if it has ended at all anyways). Would be very very good to refresh this knowledge Thanks man❤❤❤❤

Dom, This video is just what I needed as a new Cubase 12 pro user. Thank you. Please do more videos!!!

[@williamhasewinkle3358]

The default fallback for metering in Cubase 12 is 12db/s. I just found out, and thought I would share it with everyone. Thank you.

[@Bassryche]

The default fallback is set at 12db/s. I never changed this setting, but I will do it everytime now. Thanks Dom !

[@DEADLINETV]

Chris Selim had a video about this a while ago and I started to you use it like this. It works perfectly! It great that it is that customisable and you can make it as clear as you want! Thanks Dom!

[@Catz-pt6lo]

These are the most informative cubase 12 videos in this channel man. Recently upgraded from an ancient version to cubase 12 and your video tutorials are better than reading the manual.i never thought to change colours on the meter but will be now I've seen this.

Well, the very first thing in Cubase and Nuendo should be going to settings and under "general" enable the autosave functionality!

[@trip83]

Cubase 12 crashes on me so much and my PC is a powerhouse!

[@TheParagonAxis]

@@trip83 I'd recommend checking your plugins and remove everything that is not needed from your session. Most of the crashes I experienced is somehow related to VSTs. And I'm talking iZotope and Waves here, not random free VSTs from the internet.

[@LeChapeauMusic]

Also cracked Cubase crashes a lot! If it fits your workflow, you better just buy it. I'm mainly using Cubase's stock plugins so I haven't got a single crash in years...

[@trip83]

@@LeChapeauMusic I've paid for every piece of software I have. I admit I didn't 20 years ago but built a setup from scratch this year and I've spent a lot. It crashes almost daily! It's pretty depressing as other than that it's a great piece of software.

brilliant tutorial many thanks

[@iam-music]

Great work (again) Dom! SUCH important info. I use tracking with K-20 (thanks Bob!) but the trap I found was I didnt realise that ONLY the channel is relevant to the mixer...prob because you can just select any and use as a basis; not realising supervision etc could refer to this globally. Be nice if you could simply copy the eg K-20 to the actual channel mixer instead of from scratch everytime your defaults.xml gets corrupted.

Hey man, it is soooo useful and so cool! Especially for me doing the first steps in Cubase, when every simple operation can be real creativity killer, hehe )))

[@HEROAR]

Subsucribed for a long time, but first time to leave a comment😅Sorry for that. Hav to say, as a music producer myself, if without Dom's videos, I will never figure out those utilities and features in Cubase, especially as I've been using Cubase for commercial purpose since Cubase 7, and lots of my habits and knowledge of using Cubase have been fixed or shall I say 'stablized' since then. Also I'm not that kind of person that pays enough attention to (or simply dont have the time) every little bit of the features that each Cubase upgrade offered, but rather simply, 'automatically' upgrade mostly for the stability and performance gains. Not until I meet this channel (via Cubase Official Channel), there's some many knowledge here gives good alternative references, opinions, tips for your production when you need them, besides that there's simply more than enough info here to improve the quaility of your Cubase life. Thanks Dom, and keep up the good work.🤟

I always use the Bob Katz K-Scale (usually 12 for rock/pop) and it automatically has the 3 colours and you mix to 0 and have plenty of headroom. Mixes a little quieter, but feels more like mixing to VU meters

[@Byron101_]

first: it´s better to use your ears than visual analysers. 2nd: Cubase stock analyzers are top notch and you don´t need thirdparts stuff.

[@simonslee73]

@@Byron101_ K-scale is inbuilt in Cubase, it’s just one of the meter options, no 3rd party plug-in needed 😀

[@hertzouttahell]

[@jonspecter8989]

Hey Dom...love your channel...question..how do you choose between a hard color shift (blue to yellow) or a gradual gradient..thanks..

[@DomSigalas]

Hi Jon! When you add more points make sure that the end of your next point is the same colour as the previous one. Otherwise it will create a gradient . For stepped colours you will need more points :)

[@blondiemazedancemusic2127]

Your the best 🙂

[@MrV43841]

Great videos thnx Dom. One thing I really need in Cubase is a second time clock. As separate from the project timeline. Is there such a thing? For example... some projects will have multiple songs laid out in sequence. Song 1 starts at 00:00 Song 2 starts at 05:23 Song 3 starts at 08:44 Etc But I may well mix these separately and the client will remark... please make these ** changes to Song 3 at 1min 23 and 2min13... etc. Right now I have to work.out where those timings are. But I Cubase had a second time clock. in minutes and seconds that I could set to stsrt from the left locator ( regardless of tempo ) that would be great. Does this exist already? Cheers, Michael

[@Darkred11]

Hi Dom! Your videos are great! I have a question - why do you choose to start the mix on -12 and not on -18? Isn't it better to have more headroom? Please make mixing tutorials or maybe a course 🙏

[@DomSigalas]

Minus 12 is my actual peak at the loudest parts with all instruments in. :) Around -18 is my overall RMS level. I wouldn’t peak at -18 though it’s way too low for me- don’t need to go so low.

[@Darkred11]

​@@DomSigalas Thank you! Do you mean when you start mixing you make sure that minus 12 is the actual peak at the loudest parts *on every meter of every channel?* Or do you mean minus 12 is the actual peak at the loudest parts *on the master channel* (right zone) of all the channels played together?
