HI, I have owned cubase for years and never used it. NOw I would like to setup a sort of "Jamm track / tracks, that could record and serve as base for future compositions… YOu know just fooling around keeping it in case.
I only now realised Groove agent can play a drum track of my choice all on its own. IS there a way I could have another instrument, say a piano or Halion, follow that groove and play along a set of chords ?
If that can be done, please refer me to any document thta describes this or tel me how.
Being new to this I pretty much ne a step by step guide… atleast for now.
Make sure Monitored Tracks is activated on Chord Track, and that you have your accompaniment track record enabled.
Enter as many chord events as you need to imitate a rhythm. Each chord entry will play back on its own, with no data entered into the Keys track.
Select all chord events, drag and drop them to the keys track. Now you have the groove as midi data on your Keys track.
Note: If you don’t erase all the chords afterwards, and then you record enable the jam track to play with, the jam track will play back all those chords too. If you still need the chords on the chord track for reference, you can temporarily mute the chord track. Your accompaniment (now sitting as midi data in the “Keys” track will still play back no problem.
