In this video, I show you one of the mightiest features in Cubase that will cure any arranging headaches you have when producing music! 🪐🚀🪐Check Apollo, my new Padshop 2 Signature Expansion here: new.steinberg.net/vst-instrum...
Dom, I just hope one day I see you face to face and give you a hug and say: Thank You For All The Things You’ve Taught Me All This Time. You and Greg Ondo are the people who’ve taught me so many things that I couldn’t learn on my own. So again; Thank you so much bro
Wow! Been using cubase for years and knew about the arranger track and played around with it but NEVER used the Flatten feature! Holy smokes,, that would have made things soooo much easier! Amazing!
Hi Dom, nice presentation. But one thing you didn’t mentioned. The arranger events can be selected via a generic controller. So in Live situation, you can play your song parts in any order you like, just by selecting a arranger part via a midi note from your keyboard. That’s really useful.
There’s a song mode in Reason that is meant to do something similar but this is so much cooler and deeper. Switching to Cubase was one of the best moves I made, even more so now that I can still use Reason as a plug-in. That was the one thing I missed most.
@@adsearan I thought Block Mode was the most confusing thing ever. It was somehow jumbled up with song mode and it always became a mess for me, not helping at all just a complete mess. Cubase arranger track is extremely easy though. Very logical. Sits on top of "the song" and just tells the cursor to jump to different positions.
@@Magnus_Loov I have figured out both and arranger track is just mind blowing!!! I make a folder called track elements and just put my track parts in that folder separate from the vocals. Seriously, arranger track is boss!!
@@adsearan Seriously, Cubase has the best tools for organising a project when it comes to the later stages. DAWs like Reason or Ableton Live are great at the beginning when you are just sketching up things fast, but a mess when the projects grow.
I'll tell you this for nothing. Dom's videos are a key reason I keep learning and upgrading my Cubase each cycle. I hope Steinberg realise what a great job he's doing
I used the arranger track for the first time the other day, but I didn't realize I could do SOO much more with it until I watched this video! I'll definitely be using it way more from today onwards. That being said though, "shift + *" just absolutely blew my mind! I had no idea about retrospective recording! The amount of time I could have saved myself with just that one little trick! Dude! THANK YOU!!!!
I don’t know what to say brother, the number one reason I have stuck with Cuba’s is because of you! I hope you’re in Dorst I hope they pay you, or something because you are the key to keeping me interested and involved with this platform. I didn’t know about the arranger and I had used it before and I knew you’d be able to lay it out for me and get me excited about it again. Thank you for all your videos!
I kind of new this existed, but never dug into to it. Touched the use of markers at some print but always ended up just focusing on recording and editing with old habits. Forcing myself through cutting, marking, moving, missing notes, missing automatisations, f*cking up first or last notes in the block and making the blocks a milli second shorter so therefore f*cking up the loops. And so on. So what was needed to be smooth never was and it has always been the grudge in the process of creating.... and this since Cubase SX3 or so 🙃 As some wrote here I still learn things after 20 years! Yesterday I both discovered ripple delete AND this.... 🤯 Today is gonna be a Great arranging day!
been using cubase since the Atari ST days, and knew there was an arranger track, but never tried to mess with it, and you have just blown my mind.....AGAIN. How many mixes have I had to remove all automation and events, to go back and mix again due to changes in the arrangement. This is so simple and time saving, yet so damn powerful. Thank you.
By far, one of the most enjoyable videos about Cubase. The Arranger Track will become my best new friend, aside from the Modern 80's Drum Kit Dom; thank you for your passion and sharing... Plus the Shift + * retrospective recording tip at the end of the video; pure gold... BOOM!!
your enthusiasmus is addictive, and its great to listen to a tutorial where actually a good song is used, so many cubase and other youtube teachers often use really bad songs, they sing themselves and such, mostly awful, one does not get the feel for a technologie or a function if the music is so bad, please to all teachers out there, do not sing your selve, find a good singer, there is many in your neibhourhood
I've noticed that as I watch your videos, questions come to mind, and you immediately answer them in the next section. Love it! My favourite cubase educator.
Great tutorial, I was looking for the best way to organized my arrangement in this is the way! Thank you for your nice tutorials, this helps new users to get started easily with efficiency.
I knew about the arranger track but, as with a lot of Cubase functions, I didn't know how to use it (being a rank amateur at this). This is why Dom's tutorials, amongst others, are so important and invaluable! 👍👍
First it's so fun to watch and listen to you Dom! Second you teaching us so useful things about cubase and make our lives easier! So thank you and keep up the work! I subscribred and liked you video while i'm watching this video ;)
yeah, the arranger track deserves some love. it's been there for a l o n g while and it works without hiccups ... always! And nothing keeps you from starting over with a new arranger track in a project that has already been flattened. Great way to clean things up before settling with a final version. Final version #2. Final version #2 b. Actually final version Actually final version 2021 ... to be continued ...
This would have been good information to have yesterday when I was re-arranging a track for a school assignment :) Glad I'll have it for the next one though. Thanks Dom!
You give me, what I wasn't looking for but what I need in every Song that I make. You saved me a lot of time! Really amazing. Thank you for your good work. 👍
This is awesome. Thanks so much for the video. I have so many different ideas all spread around. Now I can put them all together in a cohesive arrangement!
