Audio comping with PLE Macro like Pro Tools

Hi, I posted this on the Nuendo forum, Thought it should be here too. Hope this helps someone in doing comping of audio. Seems to work good. Many Many thanks to Greg Ondo of the Cubase Live Stream.

Comping / playlist in Nuendo

ok. Here is a the way I do it in Cubase Pro 12. You should be able to do the same thing in Nuendo. You can do this with any audio file. I did not invent this but I was trying to do the same thing as you. I like the way Pro Tools works for this. SO I asked Greg Ondo on the Cubase live stream on YouTube. He came up with the PLE and I stuck it in a macro so that you can assign it to the key command. To me this is far easier than using lanes and the comp tool. What I’m doing is usi…

Great. One thing to remember, in order for the colors to copy with the track is the event has to be colored. This is different, at least in Cubase than the track color. Select the track and then color with the color tool. Pro Tools has a few things that I wish Nuendo/Cubase would have, like the ability to adjust the cross-fade without pulling up the cross-fade editor and I still like the way Pro tools highlights the audio making in a inverse color of the track color. We have asked but that doesn’t seem to make the list.

Good luck.
