Preferences
Editing
Allows you to set standard actions for importing audio.
Enable Automatic Hitpoint Detection
If this option is activated, and you add an audio file to your project by recording or by
importing, Cubase automatically detects its hitpoints. This allows you to navigate to
hitpoints of an audio file from within the Project window.
Remove Regions/Hitpoints on all Offline Processes
If this option is activated, and you perform offline processing on an audio range that
contains regions, these will be removed.
On Processing Shared Clips
This setting determines what happens when you apply processing to a shared clip,
that is, a clip that is used by more than one event in the project:
● Open Options Dialog
An Options dialog appears, allowing you to select whether you want to create
a new version of the clip or apply the processing to the existing clip.
● Create New Version
A new editing version of the clip is automatically created, and the processing is
applied to that version (leaving the original clip unaffected).
● Process Existing Clip
The processing is applied to the existing clip (which means that all events
playing that clip will be affected).
Default Warping Algorithm
Determines which warp algorithm is used for new audio clips in the project.
Editing - Chords
‘X’ Chords Mute Notes on Tracks That are in Follow Chord Track Mode
This determines what happens when you play back a track that follows the chord
track and the cursor reaches an undefined chord event (X chord). Activate this option
to mute playback. Deactivate this option to continue playback of the last defined
chord event.
Disable ‘Acoustic Feedback’ during Playback
If you activate this option, Acoustic Feedback is automatically disabled on playback.
This ensures that chord events are not triggered twice.
Hide muted Notes in Editors
If you set up a MIDI track to follow the chord track by activating one of the Follow
Chord Track options, some of the original MIDI notes may be muted. Activate this
option to hide these notes in the editors.
Editing - Controls
Many Cubase parameters are shown as rotary encoders, sliders, and buttons that emulate
hardware interfaces. Others are edited numerically in value fields. This page allows you to select
the preferred ways of controlling encoders, sliders, and value fields.
Value Box/Time Control Mode
The menu contains the following options:
● Text Input on Left-Click
In this mode, clicking a value box will open it for editing by typing.
● Increment/Decrement on Left/Right-Click
