Hello, I've searched on this topic but all answers are old (2 years old usually) or inconclusive. These questions are related to very big, high-track-count Orchestral Template projects with a lot of virtual instruments. I would really appreciate your help on this. As of now, using the latest...

Selling: Ableton Live 10 Suite (push bundle) - // SOLD Buyers can upgrade to Live 11 Suite with a discount and receive a free upgrade to Live 12 when it is release. Which is cheaper than getting a new license for 599 USD (normally 749 USD). No transfer fee. PayPal fee on me. Thanks.

As some of you may know, video game scoring is a little different than composing for linear media (most of the time) as it requires the composer to essentially create multiple musical phrases in "blocks" that will later transition into one another once the implementation process takes place in...

Not necessarily focusing on what you currently use – but: which DAW or other program do you believe is best for work with orchestral sample libraries in 2024? I'm thinking of all kinds of work here, like composing, arranging/orchestration, handling sampler libraries (eg CC automation and...

Hi, looking to let go of Cubase Pro 12 that I bought last year. I'm open to hearing offers, drop me a message. Will set up the whole process with the resale wizard on Steinberg's website. Looking @ 150-200 euros via paypal/stripe/wise. There's an add-on instrument called the Amped Elektra...

Hi everyone, and happy new year! I made a (very long) video exploring every single DAW that supports Dolby Atmos and Immersive Audio and ranked them looking for "The Best DAW for Dolby Atmos" to get you started in 2024. In this video, I explored the capabilities, ease, and set-up of each DAW...

So with the release of Steinberg's Cubase13 today (2nd November 2023), and the ongoing chat about its features and updates (click here) does anyone have any thoughts about: When Nuendo13 will likely be released What features will be added or updated to Nuendo13 in addition to those included...

What do the hobby AND professional audience think about live composing streams or live composing "log" videos? - dos - don´ts - suggestions - best and worse examples - visual settings? Some questions: 1. Can you follow it along just by ear? 2. Does the composer needs to talk or not? 3...

Hi folks, Lately, I worked a bit on a side project. I wanted to create a new set of track icons for my 400+ tracks template, as much automated as possible. (Yes, I guess I'm more a geek than a composer, anyway...) I ended up learning Python, got my first results after half a day, and after a...

I've been a long-time user of Ableton Live for my music production needs, and recently I've been exploring ways to improve my workflow, especially when it comes to working with MIDI and producing finalized mock-ups of my compositions. I have yet to find a representation of sheet music within...

So, for those (like me) that either compose music and soundtracks or are involed with mixing and mastering, and wondering which route to take with their next high-end studio DAW computer, I thought perhaps a little objective Friday poll might help. I say 'high-end' because many of us need as...

Hey all, hope you are having a great week! I keep hearing a lot of people say that Cubase's MIDI editing capabilities are better and/or more advanced than Studio One, but nobody has actually iterated on specially why and what kind of features that Cubase can do that S1 cannot, or does better...

So as a user of S1 i just want a script to set all faders to - infinit db. unluckily I only have an basic understanding of Java Script. I found this on the internet by Lawrence: let trackList = context.mainTrackList; for (i = 0; i < trackList.numTracks; i++)...

I'm fortunate enough to have a day job as a sound designer, which is awesome, but there's this one thing that really itches me. See, I've started out, like many others in this field, by making music. The first DAW I used was FL Studio, which had run its course during my audio/music journey and...

I know that Cubase, DP and Logic are the most popular programs used for scoring and composing here, however... I believe Ableton is underrated for these kinds of work. There are certain features that make it pretty useful for working with video and orchestral music: - warping is extremely...

I quote realistic in relation to a real live orchestra. I have been writing orchestral music for some time now and I have been using both Staffpad and Sibelius with Noteperformer playback. I write the same thing twice side by side with the hope in getting a more realistic understanding. I have...

Any advice on efficiently building MIDI CC data when doing sampled orchestration? I use a scorewriter (MuseScore) to compose, and then I import it as a MIDI (.mid) file into my DAW. The process yields MIDI tracks with velocity data based on my MuseScore dynamics markings (pp, p, mf, ff, etc...

Hi friends! Steinberg has been so generous to give away a copy of Cubase 12 and Verve, their new felt piano! I'm so excited to explore them a little bit with you today, and look forward to sharing more about the giveaway in the video. Enjoy!

I have some questions about this, and think it can help us to manage templates/projects with more accuracy. This feature is also a bit overlooked, probably because of the key command to it. 1.Does "region" in Project Settings means "track" ? The number does not match real regions as we know...

Another great video series created by Marcus Huyskens. As of January 16th, 2022, already 8 videos:

TLDR: What you see is not what you hear. - Summing stems in different DAWs sounds identical. Phase cancellation has debunked that myth. - However, automation curves like saw-down will either be linear or exponential depending on the daw. - Buffer size affects the interpolation of the automation...

Guys If you're on Cubase Pro you can Create External Midi Device and load it into Instrument Track which is super cool. I also show how you can build your own custom user interface (plugin like) that can control your external (hw) synth if it support midi. More reviews and tutorials at UDI AUDIO

DP11 is known for its movie composing features. But on Windows when it comes to export, DP11 renderer for MP4 just slows to a snails pace, even with a fast SSD PCIe drive. Maybe it's just me, but has anyone else using DP experienced anything similar? How have you managed to overcome this...

Hello fellow composers. This is a small update and a small addition to the first package of my custom Track Icons. Cubase doesn't give you the option for batch importing Icons.

Hello, I have been using Logic for about 2 years now. However, for one of my classes recently, we were required to purchase Cubase Elements as our DAW. As I am getting more familiar with Cubase, there are a few features that I like from Cubase that I wish were in Logic, such as the automation...

I know it is not one of the best known DAWs, but I find myself coming back to it again and again. In the early days I had a love-hate relationship with Tracktion on MS Windows because there were always problems with scaling of plugins, but I suspect this might have been the fault of windows. On...

This meaning can be applied to any DAW, but since I'm using Cubase I'm thinking this way - why the developers cannot release for example Cubase Millenia or another cool name and then year to year work on updates and number them 123, 145, 2194 etc? In my viewpoint today we have a 5th generation...

Is there are reason why FL Studio is the only DAW where the lowest note is on C2 instead of C0 ? It's not a big deal but I always have to rethink when I look at the piano roll in another DAW.

I'm a Cubase user, but this could apply to other DAWs too. I usually work at 48kHz 24 bit (for media composition/orchestral) - or I should say that's what I export a mix to. In Cubase, I have templates with 48kHz 32-bit float. What do you work at? What are the advantages and disadvantages...
