18 years of using Cubase but I've learnt more new tricks from your videos in the past 2 months of watching them than in any 2 month period of my life before. Great job, Dom.
Hey! Thank you for showing all of this it’s truly helpful in so many ways. I see a lack of coverage on this DAW in the hip hop community and plan to build a channel focused on Cubase for this genre specifically since RU-vid is saturated with hip hop content for other daws like FL and Ableton and Cubase is so slept on !
You are the best Cubase teacher for sure, your happy entusiasme is just so catching its amazing ! Thanks man, and yes please just share your knowledge on drum programing, finger drumming and all that drum stuf and more.
Just a beginner and trying to get my head around all of the features of the various Steinberg stuff like Grove Agent and Halion. Massive amount of information to try and process/remember/apply. Getting better with each video that adds to my options. The best part is I can watch the videos a bunch of times to verify or recall how to do something. I love the energy you bring to each episode. Well done. Rick
Every time I think I know what I'm doing, I watch one of your videos demonstrating it...and realize that there are a ton of functions in there I didn't know about! I use the drum editor all the time, and I'm going to be much more productive with what I just learned from your video! I had no idea Beat designer even existed. This is going to save me so much time...
Dude I have had Cubase for YEARS and never knew it did most of this stuff! You've reignited my passion for writing and producing. Stuff I'd been paying other people to do I can do myself with ease!! Wow! Thanks so much for doing these videos!
I want to thank you Dom, I purchased Cubase 13 Pro 2 weeks ago, Ive used other DAWs for many years, but you are helping me acclimate myself to Cubase much faster than I would have otherwise. Thank you so much!!
beat designer has been my goto plugin for creating beats for many years..the reason why i love it is the velocitys are colour coded also you can copy and paste beats so its easier to create variations..so glad you spotlighted it dom :)
Finally! Didn't know it had a drum editor. THANK YOU!!! New to Cubase, and looking for a way to create a natural sounding side percussion loop (shaker/bongo/tambourine). I don't have a midi keyboard available in my current circumstances. Not knowing about the drum editor, I just programmed a bunch of percussion samples directly to the timeline. Painful!! I knew there had to be a better way. I loaded Groove Agent and only found drum kits and no side percussion elements. Your demonstration showed that Groove Agent does have those other percussion elements looks like. Can't wait to try it now. Tried LoopMasher and that one didn't make any sense to me either.
omggg gotta say buddy your killing it!! Stumbled upon your account through a cubase 11 video :D right away i thought doctormix but now your solo and i love tour vibe and the way u tell the content str8 to the point just how it is AMAZINGG p.s. plz teach us anything and eveyehring about DRUMS & FINGER/PAD Drumming
Hey Dom, Just wanted to show a bit of appreciation for all you do! I've been a cubase elements user for years, but just recently dove into pro. Your tutorials have made me realize, I should have done this years ago! But, better late than never. Your tutorials are super easy to follow, and understand. I feel as though when i decided to pull the trigger, and make the transition you pretty much held the door open for me, lol. I dig your prospective, and look forward to browsing the rest of your video library. Thank you, and keep doing what you're doing! sincerely, -iColdSynthetic.
I would appreciate so much if you made a video all about drums. -Programming drums using keyboard or pad? -loading samples to vst and midi/pads? -how to route the drums in grooveagent5 to mixer so i can mix separately?Etc. thank u ahead of time for reading:)
Thanks you so much from France, Dom ! As always, your videos are a huge source of information and inspiration, for me both on Cubase and Yamaha Modx, and it's so much more a pleasure and fun to listen to it better than having to read boring manuals ;) As a suggestion for a next video, I would like to know your main tips and tricks on how to manipulate midi events in the key editor in an efficient way, especially using the drawing toolbar buttons (for exemples: how to shift a loop, insert blanks somewhere, impacting all tracks, how to update shades and add "life" on midi notes, giving it more natural feeling, or also how to slow down or accelerate all the tracks, etc...). Thaaannnnnnk you !!!
Hello, I am Dan, A Music Producer and Cubase 10 user from Bakersfield. Really learnt a lot watching your video on programming drums! Can you please upload a video on how to finger drum and the techniques that you use. It will be really helpful for someone like me who does not have a good background on playing drums. Thanks a lot.
didn't even know about the beat designer. very cool. didnt know you could drag and drop groove agent patterns into key editor to edit further. very handy tips thank you
Thank you! I had no idea these things existed. I was looking round to buy a simple drum sequencer for electronic drums and all the available ones have too many features and are over complicated. Then it occurred to me that there was probably something already within Cubase. Your video has explained not just one, but three other ways to do it other than my usual finger drum/key editor method. Excellent!
I think you are one of the best on youtube ,your vid are great and honestly I would love and can't wait for that video (learning how to use keyboard on drum programing) to come out .pliz make one .best teacher ever.
Yes, please! I really would like to learn to fingerdrum... Power Metal is my main genre, so, if you could play a little metal section, it would be awesome!
I'm new to cubase I've binged watch a lot of your videos over the weekend. Damn you're a great Instructor and a content creator. Learning is fun when the person teaching it makes it look fun. I've learn so much from these videos, coming from FL Studio/Ableton im ready to Dive in Cubase. Looking forward to see more videos keep up the great work!!
I'm really bad at finger drumming. I used to play a real drum lol it's so complicated to play this way. To me, I'm bad at it and working my way up. An instructive video would be most welcomed. Your videos are amazing dom. Thanks.
Hi Dom, Now that is a really useful video. I am a cubase user for over 20 years and have tried to keep up with all the changes. I upgraded to Groove agant 5 and really lost the plot. The interface was like a total mistery. SO it took me ages to get any drums out of Cubase. After long nights on youtube I finally discovered using GA with patterns and a keyboard that is a really fun way to create drumparts. I knew the keyeditor but I am not so good at playing drums live you you do on a keyboard. I knew the drumeditor but never thought that was easy to use and the patterns always started sounding cluncky. The GA with the patterns and just playing the fills etc live is a great way to work for me now. I must say I also have Logic and almost departed from Cubase because of the incomprehensible way the GA 5 works. The Logic drummer feels far better for a simple songwriter like myself. But after finally discovering I am happy now. And after using cubase as my DAW for all those years it is hard to step away. Thanks for you videos they really help, Jos
From the beginning I simply played the drums on my keyboard. I didn't know about BeatDesigner and Pattern functions. I will definitely explore Patterns because that will fit my production style.
Always looking forward and enjoying your great videos! Similar with the stick in drum editor, is the line tool in key editor. Very powerful indeed! Cubase is such a complete DAW. Love it!
Very complete and dynamic tutorial, and I précaire thanks ! I did not know about bIg design - I am only starting but I guess I would use the MDI keyboard. My question would be how to design your own drum pattern from a first audio file after a new guitar-voice composition
