Studio One also has a chord track. I bought it because from Version 4, its audio followed the chord track also and Cubase didn't. The nearest was using Vari-audio which took time. I think I was on Cubase 9.5 back then. I am now on Cubase 11pro and did not know the audio could follow the Chord track. Great news. Time to play catch up and start learning what functionality all these updates added. :)

Hi Greg. How are you today? Great video. I wanted to know this : After you click on “Assigned the Pads to the Chord Track”, When you switched over to using the Chord Pads how did you get the new keyboard sounds to follow the Chord Pads? How did you do to select the Chord Pads sounds, the Jupiter 8 sounds? I missed that step? Please tell me how you did that step. I got totally lost. I like to try to repeat things that I have learned from watching your video. Sometimes you move so fast that I miss steps. Thank you in advance. This is a wonderful video by the way. I am watching it for my third time.

Set a up voicing on voice track after altered jazz. Choose a second inversion. Vocal sounds much better.

I have the Impulse 49 like you. Can you explain to me the correct way to get cubase 11 on your keyboard to say cubase 11. The function that I have to use to get the keyboard to work is the “GM Mixer 3”. I see on your keyboard it’s channel channel 1 that says Cubase 11 at 8:23. Please send me a video on how to update mine to Cubase please.

Hi Craig, I hope you can answer this anomaly, I record a chord on my midi keyboard G2, A2, C3, E3, I drag up into the chord track, in the create chord events , I have include bass notes, include tensions, checked, the chord displayed Amin/G, I now drag the chord box down to a Halion SonicSe midi track, the print is G2, E2,A2,C3 Up in the Voicing in the info line its showing second inversion, which is exactly what it printed, Why?and how can I get it to print exactly what I played, I can choose from the drop down voicing box root position, then reprint the midi event again it correctly, it prints what I played, it seems double work, my work around, record the chord, drag it into the chord track then from the voicing, choose the voicing, then print the midi track,

Chord Track is a godsend for me, especially with the new Scale Assistant. What I don’t get is, the auto scales in the Chord Track are often not what’s expected.

Hi, great tutorial! I have a question. I have a Cubase 12 elements trial. And I am planning to upgrade to a full version. But , I don't have a chord option for audio trackin inspektor. For all other tracks it's there. So I can't manipulate audio to follow the chords. Is that a part of ARTIST or PRO version? Or I am doing somethin wrong. Please reply, because now Cubase in on sale and it will determine which version to buy. I read the complete comparison chart but I still can't understand if this function of manipulating audio to follow the chord track is part of higher versions of Cubase.Thanks in advance...

I was not aware you could use the arpeggiator and merge the track that way. I've been pulling the chords into midi and using the flex phrasor functionality. I might get some more happy accidents with the arpeggiator. I was disappointed the the vocal stuff ... put everything pretty much on one note and sounded pitch shifted. The other stuff was very nice.

Would you please clarify what happened with the "live" playing at @8:55? You keep inferring that you played something in and something happened, but aren't being clear/direct about specifically what took place so that we (those of us who are unable to comprehend/understand from experience are able to recognize and utilize it).

The title deep dive made me curious t expect something more complex just to find the ordinary stuff with the boring voicings only holding chords or using arpeggios that make the rest of it more robotic

I’m not 100% sure, but I think so

At 10:24 why did you then decide to switch to playing the 4th Chord Pad? I mean if "Chords" is the source for the Jupiter 8, it would have arpeggiated an appropriate pattern even if you continued holding down the 1st Chord Pad, no? BTW some other DAWs have Chord Tracks, like Studio One & Tracktion Waveform (since version 9). Maybe Cubase was the first? Not sure how they compare because the only one I have is Tracktion Waveform (which also has Chord Pads at this point) - Tracktion, like Studio One, tries to implement Chord Track audio and Chord Track MIDI - they're small companies and can't seem to master this - Waveform got a good start but lost focus, and now the vsts like Captain Chords & Scaler 2 are vying to be most popular at doing this kind of thing, and I'm surprised that FL Studio & Reaper haven't done a direct implementation. I came to see how Cubase is stacking up. I'm really glad Cubase 12 is available without a dongle!

Hi Connell. The chord track is by default routed to ‘Use Monitored Tracks’ which means it will trigger whichever track you have highlighted. You can either mute the chord track by pressing the ‘M’ button or click the box which says Use Monitored Tracks and change that to a specific track
