I then pressed play in the loop and it started to recorded over the midi. Not cool.
I then clicked off the track I just recorded on, and it did not try to record on this track when I looped it. When I clicked back into the track with the midi and pressed play again, it started recording.
Now it seems to be on any track I am clicked on…
I do not see a common sense clear and obvious button for this feature. What should I be looking for … the button that says ‘destroy your hard work and flunk a beautiful vibe and jamming session button’?
I think Steinberg should invest more money into such a button so that more people’s music could be violated by this rampant and aggressive feature, that has no logical common sense ideology to be a default setting.
This seems to be an add on from 13 to 14… what is going on here and how do I remove this?
Thank you
Edit: if this had been with a group, and this had happened, I would be furious. I am extremely annoyed by this however as this was a cool vibe I was curating. I was able to undo it obviously but this was lucky. Seems every single day Cubase brings me down.
Why would this feature be default?
Like for real, WHY is this so aggressive. Even when I press the recording off it just starts rampantly attacking all my tracks when I am clicked on them by predatorily trying to record over my work.
If it is a default setting then maybe. Why is this a default setting? Absolutely derailed a lovely session yesterday which was infuriating. First time I’ve properly had a chance to sit with 14 too.
I google searched and all I see is nearly a 5 minute video with Greg Ondo that is 7 years old. Probly informaiton that could be told in 30-45 seconds.
Cubase need to start putting out short quick videos to explain their continual changes - less money spent on Dom & Greg and more on obtainable information, more money spent on common sense ideas, and if they don’t have common sense in the office, they need to stop charging for updates.
why would punch in and punch out agreisvely and rampantly start attacking every single track?
Given Greg’s advice on this looks like it is 7 years old, I’ve never had this issue in 10 or 13, so what’s going on here?
Truly this is such a lame feature. I had to stop working on the song. I couldn’t do anything becuase it would just start attacking and recording over audio tracks or midi tracks it didn’t really care.
So lame. Also punch in and punch out is aggressive language and describes nothing of what was happening, so it’s no surprise the feature is hyper aggressive with a name like that… Cubase get your act together
Do you have a test project where you can experiment with features and learn how & why the work?
Do you use audio tracks?
Watch some video showing how to use it, and you may appreciate it–if you record music.
Punch-in and punch-out are basic recording terminology–not something invented by Cubase.
The purple part is the locator range in cycle mode–the red part is the punch-in, punch-out section. Do you see it in your project? It sounds like you’ve accidentally enabled something by entering a key command; you should definitely check your Record Mode settings too.
This is the correct terminology. Has been since multi track recording was invented. And yes totally descriptive. “Punch me in after the first verse” said the guitarist.
Fair enough I mean much of the audio industry has aggressive language as a culture … however to my point … don’t make this an out of the box setting … if recording artists want it they should turn it on not have everyone else at the mercy of it.
Especially because there is no obvious button for it. It’s hyper aggressive setting and I think Cubase should be more mindful how they add this sort of setting.
I even watched Greg a while ago lecture someone on this in the lives and it really didn’t seem obvious to me at all what he was explaining to how it was done.
I stand by what I say, this shouldn’t be aggressively put on everyone’s plate to bypass.
It ruined my first Cubase 14 jam. I just listened back to it, and at least I caught the issue before it totally screwed everything. But what a buzz kill.
I’ve done plenty of recording - Cubase could have made a 15 second video of how to use it starting with enabling it rather than having rampantly prey upon my creativity
The only thing remotely aggressive here are your ‘hyper aggressive’ posts in the forum.
Punch in/Punch Out has been a term that’s been used since we had the ability to do it, likely long before you were born. Its your perception that needs adjusting. When you get offered fruit punch, do you get offended and think the person offering you a drink is being aggressive too?
Perhaps you should slow down and maybe take some time to actually read the awesome online manuals, walkthroughs, tutorials, videos, etc provided by Steinberg before you start claiming the sky is falling across several different posts in the same day.
