OK so I got an android tablet, guitar, amp, fender micro plus, and a lekato guitar looper pedal (which i want to export wav files from). How would I go about wiring all this together? Like what gets plugged into what? Thnx
Hi @bluequigley,
Thanks for your message.
To use external gear with your Android tablet, you will need to add an audio device, which allows you to connect your external gear for amplification and recording in Cubasis.
On Android, support depends on the device in use and whether it is compatible with Google Oboe and the audio device you plan to use. If possible, please check that your device works well with the audio device before purchasing it.
To get an idea of the workflow, please take a look at our “Getting Started” tutorial below, which shows all steps required to create a full track with Cubasis, including recording bass and guitar via an external audio device (Use the chapter markers to jump to specific sections).
In addition, Cubasis includes dedicated bass and guitar amp, cab, and stompbox suites with numerous factory presets.
Hope that helps!
Best,
Lars
Would a scarlet solo be an audio device? How do I wire everything together? i tried oboe tester and it records and plays back fine. Sorry but I’m very new to recording
Hi @bluequigley
Using an external audio device with Cubasis for Android is dependent on both the Android device and the audio interface being used. Some combinations work perfectly, while others may have limitations due to Android USB audio support.
To connect an external audio device, connect the audio interface to your Android device using the appropriate USB OTG or USB-C adapter, then connect your microphone, instrument, headphones, or speakers to the interface as normal.
If you’re not equipped with Cubasis for Android so far, we recommend giving our freely downloadable Cubasis LE Trial a try. It allows you to test-drive a smaller feature set of Cubasis with your specific devices, helping to ensure everything works as expected before purchasing the full Cubasis app version.
To learn how to use an external audio device with Cubasis to record a track, please check out our “Getting Started with Cubasis” tutorial. We also recommend taking a look at the chapter markers in the YouTube video description, which make it easy to jump directly to the topics you’re interested in.
Best,
