Project Handling
Project Setup Dialog
author in the Default Author Name field in the Preferences dialog (General—
Personalization page).
Company
Allows you to specify a company name that is written into the file, when you export
audio files and activate the Insert iXML chunk option. You can specify a default
company in the Default Company Name field in the Preferences dialog (General—
Personalization page).
Start
Allows you to specify the start time of the project in timecode format. This also
determines the sync start position when synchronizing to external devices.
Length
Allows you to specify the length of the project.
Frame Rate
Allows you to specify the timecode standard and frame rate for the project. When
synchronizing to an external device, this setting must correspond to the frame rate
of any incoming timecode.
Get From Video
Allows you to set the project frame rate to the frame rate of an imported video file.
Display Format
Allows you to specify the global display format that is used for all rulers and
position displays in the program, except the ruler tracks. However, you can make
independent display format selections for the individual rulers and displays.
Display Offset
Allows you to specify an offset for the time positions that are displayed in the rulers
and position displays to compensate for the Start position setting.
Bar Offset
This setting is only used, when you select the Bars+Beats display format. Allows you
to specify an offset for the time positions that are displayed in the rulers and position
displays to compensate for the Start position setting.
Sample Rate
Allows you to specify the sample rate at which records and plays back audio.
● If your audio hardware generates the sample rate internally and you select
a non-supported sample rate, this is indicated by a different color. In this
case, you must set a different sample rate to make your audio files play back
properly.
● If you select a sample rate that your audio hardware supports, but that differs
from its current sample rate setting, it is automatically changed to the project
sample rate.
● If your audio hardware is externally clocked and receives external clock
signals, sample rate mismatches are accepted.
Bit Resolution
Allows you to specify the resolution of the audio files that you record in Cubase.
Select the record format according to the bit resolution that is delivered by your
audio hardware. The available options are 16 Bit, 24 Bit, and 32 Bit float.
NOTE
● When you record with effects, consider setting the bit resolution to 32 Bit
Float. This prevents from clipping (digital distortion) in the recorded files and
