I do have to give them love for some of the Cubase 15 features. The stem separation is worth the upgrade price. It’s dead simple and it is a very high-quality separation— to the extent that I can’t tell the difference between the integrated loop and the stemmed out loop. It’s a game changer. I have all of it integrated in Cubase is a blessing. So thanks for this.
Can we please get you to add “always on top” option for the mixing console and can you please put the volume handle back on the top of clips? Please?
oh yes, please - "always on top for the mixer and for all editors would be great!
Not so sure though about the previous track volume handle, but it could be brought back and made switchable. Or so, at least “in theory”…
Also, can you please add the “feature request” tag to your post?
This would increase the seriousness of your post, and would also make your intention a bit more visible.
But if you really want to do something similar you can use the Volume curve to display a white line:
set ‘Show Event Volume Curve’ to ‘Always’ in Preferences.
select the Range tool and double-click on an audio event. You’ll see a node at the top of the event.
you can click and drag up or down on the node to change the volume of the event and you’ll now see a white line within the event.
Yes it’s slightly awkward since you have to use the Range tool in order to see the node - but it’s a reasonable workaround if you insist on wanting to see a white line with a node at the top.
But it’s worth thinking about the subtleties and the whole point of the event volume controls.
The Event Volume/Gain is intended as an offset for the whole event. This is shown as a value on the Infoline or in the lower left corner of the event.
The Event Volume Curve is intended as a local/time-varying automation for the event. This is shown by a white line or curve within the event.
Imagine you have an event whose curve you’ve carefully drawn using the Pencil tool. This curve alone is enough to establish the entire volume shape for the event. But suppose you then decide the whole event should be 4 dB quieter. This is now very easy to do using the Event volume control and you don’t have to touch the curve at all.
With the new system it’s easy to control the Event Volume/Gain by assigning the Ctrl modifier to the Select tool/Edit velocity parameter in the Modifiers section of Preferences. This allows you to change the gain offset for any event simply by pressing Ctrl and dragging up or down within the event.
