just switched to cubase, cant stand FL (too unstable)

so i can learn, (very good way of doing it) can someone show me where i can get a full project of a good electronic (preferablly trance) song

or maybe someone can be willing to give me one of theirs

thanks

Try reading the getting started manual instead. It's very good. As for giving you a complete song, not that I would anyway, but Cubase Projects can be massive (over 100MB).

yea im actually gonna head out tomorrow and buy a book on cubase

but getting a project file would be very helpful


100mb ? damn.. FL project files were pretty small compared to Cubase

(maybe someone can recommend a good cubase book? have cubase sx 2.0, and i need a book that covers the basics and also maybe the new features of 2.0 if there are any important ones)

Don't buy a book, the manuals are actually quite superb, I usually buy books for programs like this, but the manuals suited me perfectly.

Get yourself cubase sx power , that book rocks, got everything explained to get you started, it's like the manual just more hands on..

I find Cubase's manuals have always been very good and especially so for SX. I never read manuals from cover to cover. I tend to try to work things out for myself but should be every become stuck a quick page or two in the manual usually does the trick. Steinberg have always had their manuals laid out very intuitively and I seldom cannot find what I am looking for within a minute or so.

100mb! are you freezing all of your VSTis or something? Mine are typically 2mb at the most..

I learned nearly everything I needed to know in cubase within the first hour of seriously using it.. it isn't hard.. granted I used Sonar 3 Producer before going to cubase.. but cubase is quite different.. it only has the same basic idea behind poruduction..

I work with a lot of audio. My processor is constantly sitting around 95% (p4 1.8), so I have to bounce, but all my percussion is in audio any way, I don't do midi percussion. So yeah, a project folder (including audio and images) will generally be over 100MB.

ahh.. I've got a 2.8ghz P4 800Mhz FSB and towards the end of a track (after i've been working on it for a while) it lags a lot so I have to start freezing some of the more CPU hungry instruments..

How do you put in your percussion samples if there .wav? Do you import them into halion?

No, if I imported them into halion, then that would still be midi wouldn't it. I have loops for my percussion that I make with redrum and then import them into Cubase. Same way Reverb did it (the guy from shokk). Works well. You don't have as much control over each particular sound though cos you don't have envelopes but it works fine for me. Its how I've always done it and I refuse to change.
