Very useful. I had been trying to do 'pattern' type stuff with Flex Phraser ... which was a lot more complicated. This will be incorporated into my workflow immediately. Thanks.

These are the best quality Cubase videos that I have seen so far; not only in terms of the depth of the concepts but also the quality of video editing for ease of understanding is excellent. Thank you very much!

Excellent, many thanks. One of my interests is creating Yamaha Style Files (Auto accompaniment) to upload to my older digital piano, in order to have a stimulating backing track that follows me whilst i learn a new song etc. I can only upload midi, so the advanced features of Cubase are useful to extract midi from audio. I see some potential also with the 'Pattern' topic in this video, to be able to use that. To learn some of this complex stuff via video tutorial is far better than just the words in the manual, so thanks again. I often shop at some of those affiliated links in your list, so i'll see if a tip or two can reach you, cheers..

Great video! I love chord pads. Only trouble is the pattern mode often records muddled notes into the timeline, wish they would fix it! One tip, the MIDI thru toggle is great if you want to play live across multiple channels (simikar to an arranger keyboard) as it enables you to play hugher up on the lesd track, but ignores those notes on the chord track.

Amazing video, thanks! In the pattern mode, is it possible to assign a different pattern per chord? Or the only way to create a pattern variation is to record a chord, change patter, record again and so on? Thanks!

@LanewoodStudios

No I don't think you can assign a different pattern per chord.

Another fantastic video. Thank you. As a Logic Pro X user I am tipping my toes into Cubase. The main reason to do so is the Chord Track and Pads functionality. So far I am enjoying Cubase, but from an intuitive perspective Logic Pro X is easier to understand and use. But ok...all products have a learning curve. It seems however that Sections Option in the Chord Pads is not available in Cubase Essentials. Or am I missing something? Cheers, Hendrik

Is the only way to program chord pads individually, or is there a way to load diatonic chords as a group?

@LanewoodStudios

3 ай бұрын

You can use the presets to load all chord pads at once. There used to be presets to load the diatonic chords for all kinds of scales but I think they have been removed in Cubase 13, not sure why. But it's easy to make your own preset of course, that you can then re-use for other keys.

Thank you this. I really appreciate your expertise. I am testing Cubase 13 on a Mac Studio M1 Ultra with Sonoma 14.3.1. Trying to learn Chord Pads and get audio overloads anytime I try any complex settings. Are there any settings that can help Chord Pad performance issues?

Да, Cubase 13 стал намного лучше для вхождения в музыку новичкам. Стало много больше подсказок, примеров и прочих удобств. Может быть вы расскажете - можно-ли в Piano Roll вывести на клавиши названия нот? В символах Do, Re, Mi - я учился и их запомнил, а символы С, А, D - не могу запомнить... Иногда мне приходиться смотреть в подсказки... Yes, Cubase 13 has become much better for beginners getting into music. There are a lot more tips, examples and other conveniences. Maybe you can tell me - is it possible to display the names of notes on the keys in Piano Roll? In the symbols Do, Re, Mi - I studied and remembered them, but I can’t remember the symbols C, A, D... Sometimes I have to look at the prompts...

Hi, great tutorial.. but I miss the ability to create my own chords with my personal note selections. Isn't it possible?

@LanewoodStudios

2 ай бұрын

I don't think so, for that I would just drag the chord pad to a midi track and then edit accordingly.

Is it also possible to turn of the bass key in normal settings? So not in section setting? I find the chors verry low and just transpose it up does not fit my needs.

Yes it’s the most advanced part of it all. I guess it is useful if you want to manually play the separate notes of the chords but can’t easily find the ‘real’ notes on the keyboard because you’re not a keyboard player.

I think it's a pretty simple concept in execution, but they gave it a terrible name and the description in the manual is just as uninformative. A better name would be to just call it, Note Players. So if you want to play individual notes that make up the selected chord pad. To me it's mostly useful if you want to create an arpeggio or ostinato and you would like to play it in yourself in real time or using Step Record mode. I would always use the later as I'm not a good enough player to do the former. Hope that helps a bit.
