Seven minutes of organized chaos in Cubase. At this point, color coding is doing more work than I am. Anyone else’s projects end up looking like this?

I recorded guitars, drums and vocals, live in the studio on logic pro. But when I load all the stems in my system on Cubase 14 pro, the scale got reduced by 1 semitone and the pace has changed. Is this the recording problem or issue with the DAW? I am new to Cubase. What could be the issue and how can I resolve it?

I am using windows 11.

So, I was making my custom reverb presets in revelation plugin. The way I started making them is load a preset and then tweak some values of early reflections, tail size, low cut, high cut, modulation etc. Once the preset was saved and loaded back on a different or same insert, the preset will only load the ER/tail ratio correctly but everything else would be restored back to stock preset values from which I started. When I make my custom preset from default settings of plugin, it does not give me that problem. It is very strange why this is happening to my surprise it’s only happening with revelation plugin only. Curious to know what is going on in the background

Hi all. I'm wondering if anyone can make any sense of this. I recorded a concert yesterday and by the time I fired up the session, the source audio files were just gone. As you can see, Cubase is acknowledging the timeline and events, but the Audio folder is just empty. I deeply scoured my drive and nothing. I've been using Cubase since the beginning of time and have never experienced this before, now I'm paranoid. Any theories?

Hey!

I’m getting issues with cubase when using MIDI and playing. Audio seems to just cut off and recordings stop (video attached). I ran a lot of queries on this with AI and installed the studio nvidia driver, made configuration changes, ASIO guard etc.

It’s not the midi controller as I’ve also used a synth I have, both have the same issue. It does not happen with standalone plugins hence it has to be cubase.

I’m only using basic HALion VST with nothing else in the project. The studio setup is of course using my Motu M2 ASIO and buffer size is synced between cubase and the M2.

Has anyone had a similar issue and has any advice?
Thanks in advance!!

Edit: FIXED, tyvm [u/RhythmHolicMusic](u/RhythmHolicMusic) and u/Strippz!

It was Riot Games’ kernel anti cheat called Vanguard. I turned on its Pre-Check feature which makes it only boot up on demand of playing a riot game, rather than with Windows. Solved everything. Much thanks to everyone!

I owned a record label in the early ninetees & produced a couple of records (AND ONE , OOMPH!), however I lost interest in the whole business as Napster creeped up, now 34 years later , some of my work seems to enjoy a revival on Tik-Tok, so I thought.... well should I give it another try ? but where to start, ? in the old days we mixed everything by hand, using midi-gear and Analoge Synthesizers. As far as I understand the Keyword nowadays is DAW-stations controlled by a DAW -capable keyboard. Now regarding a windwows PC, what kind of prosessor (intel , AMD ?) and minumum requirements should I invest for a new Music-produktion- based Windows PC. ? (I do own a high-end Graphic-Design PC for Compfyui based rendering but I want a single PC for Music-composing & remixing).

Hallo zusammen,

Ich habe massive Skalierungsprobleme mit mehreren VST-Plugins in Cubase 15 unter Windows 11.

Mein Setup:

\- Windows 11

\- Ultrawide-Monitor (3440 × 1440)

\- Windows-Skalierung: 150%

\- HiDPI in Cubase 15 aktiviert

Cubase selbst sieht gut aus, aber viele Plugins werden viel zu klein angezeigt, besonders die Texte und Bedienelemente.

Das Aktivieren von "Fenstergröße ändern zulassen" behebt das Problem nicht wirklich. Ich kann einige Plugin-Fenster manuell vergrößern, aber die Größe wird nicht gespeichert, wenn ich sie wieder öffne.

Das Deaktivieren der Größenänderungsoption macht die Plugins manchmal noch kleiner.

Ich habe verschiedene Skalierungsoptionen in Cubase ausprobiert, aber nichts scheint richtig zu funktionieren.

Gibt es eine Möglichkeit, VST-Plugins korrekt und dauerhaft zu skalieren, ohne sie jedes Mal neu anpassen zu müssen?

Jede Hilfe wäre willkommen!

Hi everyone,

I'm having major scaling issues with several VST plugins in Cubase 15 on Windows 11.

My setup:

- Windows 11

- Ultrawide monitor (3440 × 1440)

- Windows scaling: 150%

- HiDPI enabled in Cubase 15

Cubase itself looks fine, but many plugins are displayed way too small, especially the text and controls.

Enabling "Allow Window Resizing" doesn't really fix it. I can manually resize some plugin windows, but the size isn't remembered when I reopen them.

Disabling the resizing option sometimes makes the plugins even smaller.

I've tried different scaling options in Cubase, but nothing seems to work properly.

Is there a way to make VST plugins scale correctly and permanently without having to resize them every time?

Any help would be appreciated!

Well... I bought Hatsune Miku V6 and it came with Cubase. I don't know how to start producing music, so I'd like some tips to get me started :3

Also, I'm not very good at speaking English, so I'll use a translator >.<

Or anything else you want to use as touch enabled.

It’s pretty impressive.

What features/improvements are you expecting or hoping for in Cubase 16?

Personally, I’d love to see some​ workflow improvements and features inspired by other DAWs. What’s on your wishlist?

Hello, especially when clicking play, stop and some other thing, there is a 1s latence before the GUI refresh, it really feels slow and unreactive, anyone else is experiencing this ?

As far as I know, Cubase doesn't have this built in — happy to be corrected.

Let's say that before you start a project, you define a rule: every track whose name contains a certain word, or that has a specific plugin on it, belongs to a specific set. From then on, any new track that matches joins the set automatically.

One click selects every track in the set. Double-click shows only those tracks in the project.

You can do a one-time selection like this with the Project Logical Editor, but the rule doesn't stick — add a new vocal track and you have to run it again. Here the set keeps itself up to date.

Does this sound useful? Full disclosure: I built a tool that does this.

This is a short extract from the full tutorial I uploaded to YouTube, showing what Clean Names does and why I built it.

If you import tracks from sample packs or build a session without a template, it's easy to end up with track names that tell you very little about what's actually there. That becomes a problem when you share a session with another producer, archive it, or export stems for someone else.

Clean Names reads information already in your Cubase project — samples, instrument presets, plugins, and track type — and uses it to suggest meaningful track names. You can choose how detailed the names are and review the suggestions before applying them.

It also leaves uncertain suggestions unchecked rather than blindly renaming everything.

Hopefully this gives you a better idea of what the tool is actually for.

Coming from Logic Pro for iPad (sure, maybe not the fairest comparison directly), but I’ve looked at and tried a few other DAWs. Cubase just won me over and I’ve been happily using it. It includes so much that honestly it only needs supplementing in very few instances if at all.

What’s something you feel like you’d add?

And what’s something that would make you leave Cubase (if it got removed or if they implemented it and you wouldn’t like/agree with it)?

Switching from Studio One to Cubase — how difficult is it?

I’ve been using Studio One for a few years and am now considering switching to Cubase 15.

I’m currently experimenting with an unofficial/cracked installation, but I’m running into issues where Groove Agent and Iconica sketch aren’t working properly.

For those who have made the switch from Studio One to Cubase:

- How difficult was the transition?

- What are the biggest differences I should prepare for?

- Any Studio One features/workflows that you initially missed?

- How is Cubase for music production, orchestration, mixing and mastering?

- What’s the best legitimate way to get access to Groove Agent and the orchestral libraries without spending a fortune?

Would love to hear from people who have actually made this switch.

My exact use cases:

I have bass VST track with MIDI parts on that track. I want to add another bass VST to layer them but I don’t want to copy the MIDI parts every time I edit the arrangement. Second use case: I have drums VST with MIDI parts, and I want to trigger just the snare from other VST for layering. Is it possible to “send” MIDI parts to other track as an input in place of their own MIDI parts? I imagine that the second, triggered VST, would have the timeline blank, since the MIDI is send in the background. Thanks for any help! If my reasoning does not work and it’s not possible in Cubase 14 Pro, how should I approach avoiding editing several duplicates of the same performance? Thanks a lot.

Hello Cubase Community,

Unfortunately, I’m having an issue with Cubase 15 Pro. I can’t find my MIDI files from sample packs. I can find all the other samples, such as kicks, melodies, etc., but the MIDI files are not showing up.

I’ve already checked everything in the MediaBay, but the MIDI files are not displayed there either.

At this point, I’m honestly running out of ideas, so I’m hoping someone here can help me find a solution.

Thank you in advance!
