MIDI Record Catch Range in ms
When you record starting at the left locator, this setting helps you make sure
that the very start of the recording is included. If you raise the Record Catch
Range, Cubase will catch the events played just before the recording start point,
eliminating this problem.
Retrospective Record
If this option is activated, the program captures MIDI input in buffer memory,
even when not recording. The contents of the buffer memory can then be
retrieved and turned into a MIDI part on a record-enabled MIDI track. This
therefore allows you to capture any MIDI notes you play in stop mode or during
playback and later turn them into a recorded MIDI part.
Use the Retrospective Record Buffer Size setting to determine how much MIDI
data can be captured in the buffer.
ASIO Latency Compensation Active by Default
This determines the initial state of the ASIO Latency Compensation button in the
track list for MIDI or instrument tracks.
If you record live on a VST instrument, you usually compensate the latency of your
audio card by playing too early. In consequence, the timestamps are recorded
too early. By activating this option, all recorded events are moved by the current
latency, and playback sounds like during the recording situation.
Replace Recording in Editors
This affects the result of recording in a MIDI editor when Replace Mode is
selected (Linear Record Mode on the Transport panel):
None
Nothing is replaced, even though Replace Mode is selected.
Controller
Only controller data is replaced, not notes.
All
Replace mode works as usual - notes and controllers are replaced when
recording.

Playback Toggle triggers Local Preview
If this option is activated, you can use the Space on your keyboard to start/stop
“local” playback of the selected file in the Sample Editor or the Pool.
When the Sample Editor is not open or when there is no audio file selected in the
Pool, the Space still toggles the “global” project playback.
If this option is deactivated, the Space is used to start/stop playback of the
project.
