Menu Reference
Project menu
Add Track
Select a track type from the Add Track submenu to add a
new track. The “Using Track Preset…” option opens a di
-
alog in which you can search for track presets or VST
presets.
Duplicate Tracks
This will create a duplicate (copy) of the selected track.
Remove Selected Tracks
This will remove all selected tracks and any parts or events
on them from the Project window.
Remove Empty Tracks
This removes all tracks not containing any events.
Show All Used Automation
This opens the used automation for all tracks.

This closes all open automation tracks.
Pool
This opens the Pool, which contains all clips (audio and
video) that belong to a project.
Markers
This opens the Marker window. Markers store positions to
facilitate quick navigation to important locations in a project.
Tempo Track
This menu item opens the Tempo Track Editor. For tempo
based tracks, the tempo can follow the tempo track (acti-
vated with the Tempo button on the Transport panel), which
may contain tempo changes.
Beat Calculator…
This opens the Beat Calculator window. The Beat Calcu-
lator is a tool for calculating the tempo of recorded audio
or MIDI material.
Set Timecode at Cursor…
This allows you to set the project start position at the cur-
sor position. When synchronizing Cubase with external
devices, the start position denotes which timecode frame
on the external device corresponds to the beginning of the
project.
This can also be set in the Project Setup dialog. However,
if you know that a certain position in your project coin-
cides with a certain timecode position in the external de-
vice, using this menu item might be preferable. Move the
project cursor to the desired position, select “Set Time-
code at Cursor” and specify the corresponding timecode
position in the dialog that opens – the Start value is ad-
justed accordingly.
Notepad
This opens a standard text notepad.
Project Setup…
This dialog contains general settings for a project. See the
dialog help for specifics.
Auto Fades Settings…
This opens the Auto Fades dialog, where you can specify
various fade options. Use the Help button in the dialog for
details.
Zoom Selected
Tracks
This zooms in vertically on the selected track(s) and mini-
mizes the height of all other tracks.
Undo/Redo
Zoom
Undo lets you undo the last performed zoom action, and
redo lets you redo the last undone zoom action. How
many levels of undo are available for zoom actions is the
same as for “regular” undo, as set on the General page in
the Preferences dialog.
