● You hit Record too late.
For this to work, you must specify an audio pre-record time.
●
The system failed during recording.
Specifying an Audio Pre-Record Time
You can capture up to 1 minute of any incoming audio that you play in stop mode or during
playback. This is possible because Cubase can capture audio input in buffer memory, even when
not recording.
PROCEDURE
1.
In the Preferences dialog, select Record> Audio.
2.
Specify a time (up to 60 seconds) in the Audio Pre-Record Seconds eld.
This activates the buffering of audio input, making pre-recording possible.
3.
Make sure that the audio track is record-enabled and receives audio from the signal source.
4.
When you have played some audio material that you want to capture (either in stop mode or
during playback), click
Record.
5.
Stop the recording after a few seconds.
This creates an audio event that starts where the cursor position was when you activated
recording. If you were in stop mode, and the cursor was at the beginning of the project, you
may have to move the event to the right in the next step. If you were playing along to a
project, you can leave the event where it is.
6. Select the Object Selection tool.
7. Place the cursor on the bottom left edge of the event, so that a double arrow appears. Then
click and drag to the left.
RESULT
The event is now extended, and the audio that you played before activating the recording is
inserted. This means that if you played along during playback, the captured notes end up exactly
where you played them in relation to the project.

Recovery of Audio Recordings after System Failure
Cubase allows you to recover audio recordings after a system failure.
When you experience a computer crash during a recording, relaunch the system, and check the
project record folder. By default, this is the
Audio subfolder inside the project folder. It should
contain the audio le that you recorded, from the moment when you started recording to the
time when your computer crashed.
NOTE
●
This feature does not constitute an overall guarantee by Steinberg. While the program itself
is capable of recovering audio recordings after a system failure, it is always possible that a
computer crash, power cut, etc. might have damaged another component of the computer,
making it impossible to save or recover any of the data.
