Hey - in Cubase 5, I was controlling parameters for inserts on the Selected channel to do my compression with a generic controller, so that I could do all of this via the hardware, rather than a mouse.
Now that I’ve got Cubase 7, I want to extend this to the channel strip instead of the inserts, but in the generic controller setup, I can’t find the option to control any of the parameters in the channel strip. Ideas?
I have 40+ parameters to control for each channel. All EQing, dynamics, and send information shall be controlled for each channel. The 8 QCs aren’t going to cover it by a long shot…
We’re talking about MIDI control here, which is not very reliable hence all the hype that manufacturers pour onto the creative process in order to extract money from musicians etc.
If you want absolute "control’ why not buy a nuage?
There are already hidden parameters in there, like eq band type, which don’t come up in the parameter chooser menu, but can be edited in the XML directly. I want these and the strip parameters accessible in the menus, too.
So… is it the case that the generic remote simply doesn’t have control of the strip parameters through any normal means? I got Cubase 7 to use the channel strip, but I can’t control it all with my hardware? That seems asinine to me. Where is the XML file at, and are the parameters accessible within that?
you are so full of poopies , and yes ive bitten to a crap statement form a complete gonad .So your saying that ever since CC data has been invented it is completely unreliable ??
In twenty years of midi ive never heard such dribble and never have had problems with programming hex or cc .You certainly have away of insulting everything about the software and the users work flow .
yes 40 cc’s is a bit much to ask for as qc controls and the way i have been using the qc to control the channel strip parameters and it is a quick and easy way(if you have a qc ) , 1 QC insert ,click the parameter you want to use and change the value with the qc controller and just click from control to control , not the best way but it’s only one more click than an AI control . Not ideal and not a generic remote but it works
I would LOVE a hardware controller kind of like softube one but just utilising cubases already great channel strip. Perhaps with a little OLED screen to tell you which channel you’re on. Not even a scribble strip but just something with a bit of feedback. I’ve been thinking about designing something myself but it’s a big task!
