MIDI Editing
◆ The Key Editor / Piano-roll Editor features
many standard functions for manipulating
MIDI note and event data.You can Draw,
Move, Copy, Delete,Mute,re-Size,
Tr anspose and change Velocity for note-
events.
◆ The Multi-Lane Controller Editing func-
tions allow simultaneous editing of various
controller data sets at the same time.
◆ The Mathematical Curve Function (such as
parabola, sine,triangle, square) allows you
to draw precise Controller data curves
quickly and easily.
◆ Step Recording allows recording events off-
line by inputting notes via MIDI-in at the
start position and automatically stepping
these to the next Grid point (e.g. 1/16th).
This allows the easy creation of musical
lines that are difficult or impossible to play.
Key Editor
Drum Editor
◆ The Drum Editor features standard editing
functions (Draw, Move, Copy, Delete,
Mute,Size, Transpose note-events,Velocity
and Controllers) as well as Drum Map
support allows you to assign sound names
(eg. kick,snare) to notes.
◆ Each sound or notepitch can have its own
settings for Quantize, Output and Channel.
◆ The Drum Editor also provides access to
the same Multi Lane Controller Editing,
Mathematical Curve and Step Recording
functions found in the Key editor.
◆ The Logical Editor allows you to find
certain MIDI events,based on defined
criteria and conditions.You can then
manage and edit this data using the list of
available actions.
◆ Applications range from simple MIDI
event filtering to complex tasks such as
changing the scale of a piece of music from
minor to arabian.
Logical Editor
List Editor
◆ The List Editor allows all data (MIDI,
Audio events,Automation,etc.) to be
edited numerically.
◆ It provides an overview of the whole
project so that you can easily browse
through all of the project’s tracks. This
allows very precise control when adjusting
the ‘fine detail’like sample-accurate
positioning of multiple data types.
◆ The event display shows the events
graphically while the value display shows
the “value”of each event, allowing for easy
viewing and graphical editing.
◆ The information available in the List
Editor Includes: Event Type; Start and End
position; Length; Data 1 and Data 2 (eg.
pitch and modulation); Channel and
Comment.
◆ Single and multiple events can be muted
and unmuted using the dedicated Mute
To ol.
Accurate MIDI Timing
with LTB
◆ LTB (Linear Time Base) is a multi-channel
communication protocol which offers
sub-millisecond MIDI timing accuracy.
◆ LTB is a MIDI Time Stamping technique
that bypasses the computer’s operating
system and thus significantly reduces latency.
◆ LTB is utilized by the MIDEX series of
hardware MIDI USB interfaces to offer the
lowest latency of any MIDI interface
available.
◆ Supported by Cubase SL and SX as well as
Nuendo.
VST System Link
◆
VST System Link is a platform independent
communication protocol that provides
sample accurate networking of several
computers running VST System Link-com-
patible host applications including Cubase
SX, Cubase SL and Nuendo.It enables syn-
chronization, transport control and audio
data between two or more workstations
over standard digital audio cabling systems
such as ADAT, TDIF,AES/EBU or S/PDIF.
◆ Expandability, Flexibility and connectivity
for your virtual studio — exploit the DSP
resources of multiple computers within a
single project.
Steinberg Technology
ASIO
◆ ASIO (Audio Stream Input/Output) is a
high performance, low latency audio driver
architecture that forms the backbone of
Steinberg’s Virtual Studio Technology.
ASIO was developed to deliver a truly
professional audio recording solution —
one that supports variable bit depths and
sample rates, multi-channel I/O and
synchronization — all within a native
computer environment.
◆ ASIO is a supported standard by many
leading audio hardware manufacturers
including MOTU, M-Audio, Tascam,
Edirol,Steinberg and many more.
