I came upon this issue when trying to reamp with my FM3. The FM3 is set up so that the dry signal only communicates with the unit from the DAW on channel 5. Does any one have any idea why I can only see 4 inputs and outputs here?
I don’t have access to the studio setup function in Artist, that’s only on pro. Can someone point me in the right direction here?
The FM3 manual shows all possible options of recording using the 4 ins and outs on the USB connection. There is no 5th channel as far as I can see.
The dialog “Device Setup” was renamed to “Studio Setup” in later versions of Cubase. It is the same and has nothing to do with Artist or Pro.
You seem to be right about this. I’m reading the manual right now. I’ve got it set up so that I have a dry DI track and I’ve changed the input settings on the FM3 to USB channels 3/4, but there’s no sound when I play back the dry signal.
Just noticed something though - the In and outs 3-4 are marked as INACTIVE in Cubase (see picture.) Maybe this has something to do with it? I can’t seem to figure out how to make them active, do you have any idea what might be wrong here?
They are probably inactive because you didn’t assign them to any bus in audio connections.
Yes, thank you. I managed to figure it out eventually. Still no sound from the FM3 though, I have no clue what I’m doing wrong here. One step in the manual says to “change the output of your “DI” track to FM3 Output 3” but I’m not clear on how I’d go about doing this.
I realize that I’m coming off as annoyingly novice but I’m a bit desperate to make this work so I’ve no choice but to keep asking questions.
Set output routing of the track in inspector.
Yes! And I actually figured out what else I was doing wrong, I hadn’t even added the 3/4 stereo outputs. So now I have sound. Now I just have to figure out how to capture it, pressing record results in silent audio. Any ideas?
Think through what was required for output and extrapolate that process to input.
Create bus, assign inputs, set track routing.
Any Cubase recording basics video on YT would cover all of this.
