● When you record with effects, consider setting the bit depth to 32 bit oat or
64 bit oat. This prevents clipping (digital distortion) in the recorded les and
keeps the audio quality very high. Effect processing and level or EQ changes in
the input channel are done in 32-bit
oat or 64-bit oat format, depending on
the Processing Precision setting in the Studio Setup dialog. If you record at
16 bit or 24 bit, the audio will be converted to this lower bit depth when it is
written to a
le. As a result, the signal may degrade. This is independent of the
actual bit depth of your audio hardware. Even if the signal from the audio
hardware has a bit depth of 16 bit, the signal will be 32 bit oat or 64 bit oat
after the effects are added to the input channel.
● The higher the bit depth value, the larger the les and the more strain is put
on the disk system. If this is an issue, you can lower the record format setting.
Record File Type
Allows you to specify the le type of the audio les that you record in Cubase.
NOTE
● For wave le recordings larger than 4 GB, the EBU RIFF standard is used. If a
FAT 32 disk is used (not recommended), audio
les are split automatically. In
the Preferences dialog, you can specify what happens if your recorded Wave
le is larger than 4 GB.
● You can set up embedded strings in the Preferences dialog.
Project Ownership
In the Project Ownership section, the following options are available:
Author
Allows you to specify a project author that is written into the le, when you export
audio les and activate the Insert iXML chunk option. You can specify a default
author in the Default Author Name eld in the Preferences dialog (General—
Personalization page).
Company
Allows you to specify a company name that is written into the le, when you export
audio les and activate the Insert iXML chunk option. You can specify a default
company in the Default Company Name eld in the Preferences dialog (General—
Personalization page).
Other Project Settings
In the Other Project Settings section, the following options are available:
Stereo Pan Law
If you pan a channel left or right, the sum of the left and right side is higher (louder),
than if this channel is panned center. These modes allow you to attenuate signals
panned center. 0 dB turns off constant-power panning. Equal Power means that the
power of the signal remains the same regardless of the pan setting.
Volume Max
Allows you to specify the maximum fader level. By default, this is set to +12 dB. If you
load projects that were created with Cubase versions older than 5.5, this value is set
to the old default value of +6 dB.
Hermode Tuning
In the Hermode Tuning section, the following options are available:
