Recording
Now that you have selected a sound, you can record something. You will learn
how to route a MIDI keyboard to your track so that HALion Sonic SE plays the
sound you selected. Proceed as follows:
1. Connect a MIDI keyboard to your computer.
This can be done directly through USB or via a MIDI interface.
2. In the Inspector, on the Input Routing pop-up menu, choose the MIDI input
that you want to use.
If you are not sure which input to choose, leave this set to “All MIDI Inputs”. That way, all available
MIDI inputs are taken into account.
Below the Input Routing pop-up menu, you can see the MIDI output. This is set
to “HALion Sonic SE”.
3. Activate the “Record Enable” and Monitor buttons on the track and play
some notes on your MIDI keyboard.
Record enabling the track lets Cubase know that you want to record on this track. You can have
many tracks record enabled at a time. You should see and hear the MIDI signals coming in.
