RESULT
You can now use the MIDI control device to move faders and knobs, activate Mute
and Solo, etc. The exact parameter configuration depends on which external MIDI
control device you are using.
A white stripe in the Project window and in the MixConsole indicates which
channels are currently linked to the remote control device.
IMPORTANTIMPORTANTIMPORTANTIMPORTANT
Sometimes communication between Cubase and a remote device is interrupted or
the handshaking protocol fails to create a connection. To re-establish
communication with any device in the Devices list, select it and click the Reset
button in the lower part of the Device Setup dialog. The “Send Reset Message to
all Devices” button at the top left of the dialog next to the “+” and “-” buttons will
reset every device in the Devices list.
Operations
Global options for remote controllers
In the Device Setup dialog, on the page for your remote device, some (or all) of the
following global functions may be available (depending on your remote device):
Bank pop-up menu
If your remote device contains several banks, you can select the bank you
want to use.
The bank you select here is used by default when Cubase is launched.
Smart Switch Delay
Some of the Cubase functions (e. g. Solo and Mute) support the so called
smart switch behavior: In addition to regular activation/deactivation of a
function by clicking a button, you can also activate the function for as long as
the button is pressed. Upon releasing the mouse button, the function is
deactivated.
This pop-up menu allows you to specify how long a button must be pressed
before it goes into smart switch mode. When “Off” is selected, the smart
switch function is deactivated in Cubase.
