Setting Up Your System
Setting Up Audio
IMPORTANTIMPORTANTIMPORTANTIMPORTANT
Make sure that all equipment is turned off before making any connections.
Simple Stereo Input and Output Setup
If you only use a stereo input and output from Cubase, you can connect your audio
hardware, for example, the inputs of your audio card or your audio interface, directly
to the input source and the outputs to a power amplifier and speaker.
Once you have set up the internal input and output busses, you can connect your
audio source, for example a microphone, to your audio interface and start recording.
Connecting Audio
Your system setup depends on many different factors, for example, on the kind of
project that you want to create, on the external equipment that you want to use, or
on the computer hardware that is available to you. Therefore, the following sections
can only serve as examples.
How to connect your equipment, that is, whether to use digital or analog
connections also depends on your setup.
