Get the Perfect Rock Guitar Tone with VST Amp Rack | Rock Production Basics in Cubase Elements

[@joaoataide1134]

thank you very much, was about to give up on digital amps

[@jeremythornton433]

I use the Cubase Amp Rack for all my reocridings in Cubase 12 Pro. I also use the Bass Rack. Now here's the thing. Cubase hasn't updated the guitar rig in years. I think it's long past overdue. The bass rig has 2 microphones and you can change them out for different ones. C'mon Steinberg, get with the program. There are countless great free plugins out there now, let's see what you can do to beat them for your paying customers.

We need much better IR "High Gain" METAL Responses!!! for VST Amp Rack!!! please Steinberg.... 😍

[@jeremythornton433]

Specter Media has a free metal IR but I think it would be even better if you could stuff it right into the Amp Rack. It's time Steinberg upped their game.

[@jeffloy4638]

Been considering switching from PT to Cubase. Score one for Cubase in the included amp sim category.

[@harryolive1853]

Cool lesson.. appreciated this.. in my case I would reduce some highs.. anyway.. very helpful!

[@LondonSteveLee]

Hmm, the VST amp rack sounds better than I remember. I use the "glued" preset on the Bass AMP VST on a parallel copy of the bass track on every mix - it just adds the required weight - you can then pick out how much detail you need on the other unprocessed track. I have every amp sim you can shake a stick at - Bass "glued" rocks!

[@3dogrecordingstudio628]

Thank for the lesson, you achieved nice old school tone. That's a tone that will always have a need and is the most versatile.

[@sadriil_morningmare]

Thank you for lesson! But, maybe, quad cortex in your video will be better?)

[@bill4510]

Messhugga did an album, using vst amp rack. Can't remember wiych one.

[@panelbolcsessegekalacsonyk4176]

Koloss, I think....🤘😶👍

[@ivanvenot]

Great tool! 💪🏽

[@sandraandpaul]

nice but how can one use the Playback with no latency as you do in the video? I have the Mackie DL16S and even with the lowest buffer setting it doesn't change the latency?? Thanks

[@Khian_Vs_AI]

Can I go to him with your Question Please?

[@Steven-do2dp]

Same question here

[@victornoagbodji]

Thanks for this series 😊 What interface are you using?

[@DaveDickens]

Great video, thank you! Cheers Dave

[@TFYS-QA]

Ok, so I've been looking at what I need to go from: Guitar plugged into pedals, into amp, mics setup to capture sounds coming from amp speaker, to interface then to software on PC. This might be a dumb question, but it looks like you are recording JUST the guitar plugged directly into an interface-to-PC, using Cubase with plugins and such, to process how you want the guitar to sound, instead of all the physical hardware mentioned above?

[@fergalkavanagh6999]

Yep. The VST Amp Rack included in Cubase simulates all of the above 😊

[@TITTYtoucher2000]

My guitar never seems to pass through those effects until after I record a track and add fx afterwards. How do I play with effects like this in real time?

[@owenbakken2002]

I’ve had same problem

[@charlesdumas2461]

Same problem. Did you find the solution?

[@PascalM-ld9xn]

set your soudcard Asio buffers to 512 or 256 if your CPU Can handle it

[@exenbaer]

for anyone having the same problem as I -> turn on the monitor function (on the audio channel right next to the record red dot).

[@tamsinmccormick]

What you called a pull-off is actually a hammer on .! A pull-off is when you play a note and slide your finger towards the nut !

[@cassandrahuskey8866]

Do you HAVE TO BE IN ELEMENTS TO USE THE AMPS? CAN YOU JUST BE IN A REGULAR TEMPLATE,cubase pro 13?

[@cassandrahuskey8866]

How do you turn the amps on or make them work?

[@High.on.Life_DnB]

quick question, is it hard to play with electric guitar sound if you don't have an electric guitar??? In other words, is there a digital electric guitar instrument in Cubase elements?

[@DAVIDDAMIENR]

Thank You

[@mullewap6670]

Thanks.👏

[@jaredmueller195]

How did you get there?

[@nuttob]

He likes his knobs at 12 because it's one more than 11!!!😀

[@nomorebushz]

that's what I first thought of bet then he never said o'clock

[@TITTYtoucher2000]

I have my guitar hooked up to my new focurite scarlett 212, and I can hear it through my computer and record clean tones on cubase pro 12. I cannot for the life of me get effects to my guitar on the computer prior to recording. I can only seem to add distortion after it's recorded. Do you know how to get the distortion before I start recording? I want to record with tones and hear it prior to recording to get the tones I want. Can anyone help me with that? Thank you

[@charlesdumas2461]

. same problem for me. Did you find a solution?

[@ramzflipstudio5305]

What Cubase has amp rack? I used Cubase element 12.. I don't have amp rack I used only amp stimulator?

[@deherrera94]

artist and pro

[@ButcherGrindslam]

@@deherrera94 Elements has that too.

[@deherrera94]

@@ButcherGrindslam in the new version called cubase 13 elements, sure :) but this is a post made for cubase 12 where this amp rack was not available in the elements version

[@Harrysound]

You know as an axe fx user these don’t sound unusable. I wonder if they would sound better using some high quality IRs

[@Byron101_]

would like to see more and new IRs "High Gain" "Metal" and a user configurable dragdrop option for own IRs...

[@Harrysound]

@@Byron101_ I think you can use reverence to load IRs in Cubase, it’s been a while

[@varshvarsh9486]

What version of cubase are you using?

[@varshvarsh9486]

Something simple for noobs...like what track did you open to have the VST available...etc

[@fabianrr]

VST Amp Rack need an update

[@utkankiziltug3520]

When I choose the amp 50w 100w doesnt matter which one.. I can hear the sizzle..But when u choose there is no sizzle..Do u know why?
