I was literally trying to find easy ways to map different controls to my keyboard knobs for a project a few months ago. I'm so excited to dive into this!

Really cool seeing how to use these new features! Thanks Daniel!

managed to get my fader cc's on my nano working again after following this vid, thanks DJ!

This is frickin awesome!!! thanks!

Thanks Daniel for this information,is great for my.

My Akai Mpk261 transformed to another thing with remote midi. 64 assignable buttons with part of the drum pads and 24 channel mixer with fader part. I think Steinberg did wonderful thing.

Es Vd. un genio. Muchas gracias por su tutorial.

I know right! I love that thing. Have made so many texture beds and drones with it that are all over my scores now!

I like that they made the functions more user-friendly and thank you Daniel, for your video! Nevertheless, I agree with many others, that for such an anticipated update, it was rather disappointing. I hoped for Cubase to fix the problems with expression maps, integrating more functions to go between Cubase and Dorico (as Dorico did a huge step towards Cubase with their last update) and many other features that are simply just missing: Multifreeze, open VST when selecting a track, soloing track by selecting parts, dragging a midi to audiotrack automatically renders and creates audio, Fix cycle recording, copy single automation points, etc. Don't get me wrong, I'm not hating, just a bit disappointed.

I hope they wil implement this for hardware synths and connect all midi to an interface.

Currently a KKMK2 user, not particularly enamoured with it versus older Yamaha and Korg keybeds, so exploring other options. You're a Kontakt user, but not a KKMK2 user-interesting to see! Is there any conscious reasoning behind that, or simply a case of "works for me"? Noticed JXL and Guy Michelmore are on KKMK2 (88 key models no less, but I don't like the action), clearly tastes vary considerably. Mulling an FVDE if I can't find an all-in-one controller with a nice keybed and decent faders. Just puzzled on what keybed to go for. Any thoughts if you were to start over in 2022 in terms of controllers?

AFAIK no other DAW has this. It's pretty amazing Cubase was first and not Live or Bitwig that have been doing the auto-mapping to macros for years.

Just about every DAW has this. Bitwig is probably the best though. About the only way this cubase thing is better than bitwig is that this has more "WYSIWYG" GUI for doing the mappings. Using the generic controller systems from DrivenByMoss, you can do basically everything he's showing. Cubase 11 actually DID have this capability but you had to learn to code.

IKR, that's why I'm totally using $600 Cubase, and definitely not $60 Reaper, cause I have to get new features first... Even when I have to wait several years for them.

Hello, is there also the same limited SpectraLayers in cubase 12 as in the cubase 11 version or is there SpectraLayers more extensive in cubase 12?

I am wondering if the midi glitchiness on the Audio Imperia controller is because you have it setup as both the midi input and the midi output? If so, maybe choose none for the midi output within Cubase so it doesn't create a feedback noise loop.

Hey Dan, as someone that aspires to be a game composer, I've been using FL Studio 20 for around 5 years, do you think it's worth transitioning to Cubase 12? I'm having mixed thoughts because I really love some of the features like the sample start. I really love your channel and you've helped me improved so much. Love ya dude

After working on MGSV I realised I had to move away from Ableton Live, mostly because it lacked a few MIDI features and a 5.1 output that I needed for the projects I was working on. I then started looking at how each DAW was focusing when putting out Updates. Live was more focused on loop triggering devices and new remix like features, which had no use for me. Cubase however was adding new features for scoring to video and some really intuitive midi functions. So I came to the conclusion that if this is the kind of music I want to do, I should probably learn a DAW that focuses some of its effort catering to my specific compositional needs. It sucks in the short term, but now I am very profeciant with Cubase and can do more with it writing scores than I could with Live. Zero regrets.

@@DJLA The biggest problem with Cubase 11 for me is stability. Cubase 12 has not brought the much wanted and long awaited new model for isolated plugin hosting, so it is not as stable, and can't be as stable as something like Bitwig. I'll probalby mozy back to Cubase if they fix that problem.

Hi! Did you manage to work "value to mouse pointer at lock state"? Cause it don't work for me. I assumed that it should work for plugins in locked state, but it do nothing. Any thoughts?

@6:35 have you tried an expression pedal?

Awesome

So does the midi integration mean, with something like a Nono Control, you can control 2 things at once? (one with each hand) That would be cool and something you couldn't do with a mouse

Looks like Cubase is picking up the tiny fluctuations of the signals coming from the controller. Every device does this. No controller sits at an exact value no matter the resolution. At some point, when you go down enough decimal places, there are fluctuations like what you see with the faders. Seems like Cubase just needs a hysteris sensitivity setting that you can set per controller.

The MIDI remote Editor does not work on all keyboards. I can't get it to work on My Arturia KeyLab Mk II. I have a bank of three faders too and although I can create a remote, I can't get MIDI learn working in Omnisphere - not sure where the issue is. There is no way within the Editor to assign MIDI only control functions (e.g. transport buttons faders etc)

In Windows you just go to your AppData folder and copy all the settings/files from the Cubase 11 to the Cubase 12 folder (delete the files in the Cubase 12 folder first and make shure, the program is not running). For me this seems to work best over the last years, as I'm constantly switching between my PC and Laptop. I think something similar exists in Mac, just don't know the name.

For what? Archaeological study? Just get Reaper if you're that cheap.

Reaper blows Cubase away with midi especially takes.Reaper is so easy to select different takes where Cubase is a nightmare. I put Cubase Pro 12 in stacked mode and it's supposed to mute optther takes except the last take but this did not happen for me. Also when soloing a take lane,the take would not make any sound. Reaper does this SOOOO much better. Cubase is really starting to piss me off with it's functions that need a thorough reads of the manual to half understand.

This is just stuff Reaper could already do. Why aren't more composers/producers using Reaper?
