Working with the MediaBay
When you work with many music files, the MediaBay helps you to find and organize your
content. After scanning your folders, all found media files of the supported formats are listed in
the Results section.
You can set up Favorites, that is, folders or directories on your system that contain media files.
Usually, files are organized in a specific way on your computer. You might have folders reserved
for audio content, folders for special effects, folders for combinations of sounds making up
the ambience noise that you need for a certain film take, etc. These can all be set as different
Favorites in the MediaBay, allowing you to limit the files available in the Results list according
to context.
By using the search and filter options, you can narrow down the results.
You can insert the files into your project by using drag & drop, by double-clicking, or by using the
context menu options.
Using Media Files
The MediaBay window and the Media rack in the right zone of the Project window(not in
Cubase LE) offer you multiple possibilities to search for specific files, loops, samples, presets, and
patterns that you can use in your project.
Once you have found the media files that you were looking for, you can load them into your
project.
