List of All Key Commands in Cubase 12

[simonslee]

Cubase12-KeyCommandsFile.zip (28.4 KB)
Here is a list of all Cubase 12 default key commands with their category in xls, also with all the possible available unused key combinations using alt, ctrl/cmd, and shift.

I’m sure this type of thing has been posted before but I couldn’t find a file like this as I’m working with Touch Portal where I need a lot of free key commands to map buttons, so thought I’d make a chart to quickly find new ones to use.

Thought it might be helpful for others…saves some typing.

Hi,

This thread might be interesting for you.

Thank You !!!

There is also my old “key commands to html” app, but that works a little bit differently (converts your currently defined key commands to either html or csv). I gotta admit I didn’t test it with C12, but I just assume it will still work.

Key Commands Overview as HTML Page

Hi, just for fun I’ve written a small single-page HTML app which can load Cubase’s “Key Commands.xml” and display it as nice table which you can then print or export or whatever. Tested with Firefox and Chrome. No idea whether it is useful for anyone (or even me). Sadly it is not possible to use localized descriptions, just the english ones… I moved my Cubase stuff (including some drum maps) to a github repo: Here is a direct link to the KeyCommands.html app: https://janminor.github.io/cub…

That’s a neat effort!

Might I suggest something as a fellow Touch Portalist? Cubase will happily receive up to F19, so feel free to also use those extra 56 assignments (F13-F19, with their 8 possible combinations. No modifier, Ctrl, Shift, Alt, Alt Ctrl, Alt Shift, Ctrl Shift, Alt Ctrl Shift).

Thank you. This really helps me as I am often looking for empty slots for key commands.

Also, if you need even more!

Here’s an excerpt from the ahk ( Autohotkey) script I use for Cubase which
enables using the Windows Logo key as a modifier, by having ahk send various keystrokes upon hitting Win+ <some key> (the # symbol represents the Windows key) I use keycodes that don’t have an equivalent key on my keyboard, but which Cubase can use.

Awesome, I didn’t know that, thanks!

I’ll update that for my separate TouchPad version with all my personal key commands.

[simonslee]

I thought I could do this on Windows but seems it only works on MAC I think?

[ggmanestraki]

I’m on Windows. What doesn’t work?

[absolute-music]

Many thanks!
That was exactly I was looking for

[HenryM]

Thanks Simon … much appreciated!

[jeffrey_arnold]

Go to “Key Command” on drop down window and you can assign things in there- just find the attribute- type the command you want- hit the up arrow and it is assigned

[kpitchford]

This is awesome ! I’d been scouring search engines and user guides for this; Thank you !!!

[stratman58]

Thank you!

[RUFUS]

[sharon_jarvis]

[michel_winogradoff]

Great, thank you very much

[Jedag]

Thanks a lot! I was going to spend time in Excel to clean the whole list, and I couldn’t find a way to select the whole list in Steinberg Support.
