Basics
Audio Hardware
Cubase runs on nearly every audio interface available on the market, including all ASIO- and Core Audio-compatible audio hardware, ready for immediate use. Because countless professional vendors offer interfaces in every price class and with the most diverse analog and digital I/O options, Cubase allows you to to configure the setup that meets your individual needs and best suits your working environment.
Project Window
As the primary window in Cubase 4, the Project window affords you a view of the arrangement and its various tracks. The Project window is fully scalable; you can hide and show tools and display panels at will to adapt the window to the requirements of the task at hand. Folder tracks provide an excellent way of organizing complex arrangements, speeding up workflow.
Located on the left side of the Project window, the Track Inspector provides lightning-fast access to all vital parameters for any track including mixer parameters. This provides an easy way of editing mixer settings right in the Project window without having to open a new one. Not only can every element in the Track Inspector can be shown or hidden, but the the ordering of items is also completely customizable for each track or track type.
Workflow
Cubase 4 was developed specifically to enable efficient, ergonomic handling that is easily personalized to satisfy your requirements. Keyboard shortcuts are available for nearly all functions in Cubase 4. You can assign these key commands freely and export the entire set if you wish to use your personalized key commands on other systems. Preprogrammed key configurations are available if you are adopting Cubase now but have experience with another program to ensure a painless changeover. If you wish to jump quickly to specific locations within arrangement, you can place markers at any position. The Workspace function lets you create different window layouts that are accessible via key commands. You are free to create the perfect panel for every step of the production process. Cubase 4 offers unlimited undo so you can give your creative urges free rein: Go ahead and try anything out; you can always cancel any number of editing actions if it doesn’t work out.
Pattern-based arranging
While many other DAW applications force you to use a specific way of working, Cubase 4 allows a free choice between timeline-based and pattern-based arranging - both directly accessible within the Cubase 4 Project window.
The Play Order Track is an intuitive alternative to linear arrangements. Parts of a song or production can be defined as Play Order Parts, the order sequence and repetitions of which can be handled in a, easy-to-use editor. Different versions of a project can be created and compared in next to no time - without the original version being altered. The resequenced project can then be transformed into a traditional linear arrangement with a single mouse click.
Resource Management
Cubase 4 offers functions enabling you to create complex arrangements that require less computing power and let you use performance-hungry plug-ins. As the name would suggest, the Freeze function freezes VST instruments or audio tracks with insert effects. The track is mixed into a temporary audio file, freeing up sufficient resources for further processing. Unlike conventional track bouncing, which requires you to commit early on, freezing grants you greater flexibility throughout the production process because its actions can be undone at any time. You have another easy option for tapping additional resources – simply connect computers via the VST System Link. By linking two computers via a conventional digital audio connection, you can trigger one computer plug-ins’ with sample precision and have the other do the computing. This lets you combine the two computer systems’ performance power.
Supported File Types
- Audio import and export: AIFF, WAV, BWAV, WAV64, MP3, MP3 Pro/Surrround, Ogg Vorbis, WMA Pro (Windows only), REX , SD2 (Mac OS X only)
- Dolby Digital AC3 and DTS file formats may be generated using the optionally available Nuendo Dolby Digital Encoder and Nuendo DTS Encoder.

Audio Recording and Editing
Be it studio recording or mobile live recording, the award-winning Cubase audio engine delivers pristine 24-bit/96-kHz audio quality, with 32-bit floating point resolution for internal signal processing. With its open file handling concept, Cubase 4 can use a mix of bit rates within the same project without prior conversion. Professionally tried and tested recording features including numerous different recording modes, such as Stacked Recording, make not just recording with Cubase easy, but later editing and comping a breeze.
Cubase 4 offers not only a huge range of new first-class VST3 effect plug-ins but a dedicated Sample Editor for surgical processing of any audio material. Alongside a vast arsenal of vital functions such as cuts, fades, pitch-shifting and time-stretching, Cubase 4 features numerous special functions for adapting loops to existing audio material.
With the help of fully automatic hit-point recognition and the awesome Extended Audio Warp tools, tasks such as adapting a drum loop to the song tempo, transposing a recording in real time and transferring grooves from an audio file to a MIDI track are accomplished in just a few steps - and in breathtaking quality. In Cubase 4, editing audio material is a non-destructive operation - all edits are stored in the Task List and can be undone at any time. In addition, an offline process history lets you remove, replace and edit every effect added to an audio file in the course of processing.
MIDI Sequencing
Cubase 4 offers versatile, easy-to-use tools and editors for MIDI sequencing and composition. You can import MIDI parts via drag & drop or play on a connected keyboard MIDI and record parts directly. Various highly versatile editors put numerous tools at your fingertips; they afford you access to every conceivable MIDI parameter for purposes of further processing.
Key Editor
The graphical Key editor lets you intuitively generate and process notes and other MIDI events such as velocity or MIDI controllers. With the Inplace Editing function, you can also process MIDI parts directly in the Project window in context with other tracks.
Drum Editor
The Drum editor was developed especially for drum sequencing. A few clicks are all it takes to create complete drum tracks. And you can create an individual drum map for every employed instrument.
List Editor
The List editor shows all the events of a MIDI part as a list indicating numeric values. A display filter lets you show and hide special events.
MIDI Effects
Cubase 4 offers numerous MIDI effect plug-ins for every MIDI track, including creative tools such as a powerful Arpeggiator, a MIDI pattern sequencer and a MIDI chord processor, as well as functional plug-ins such as a MIDI compressor for equalizing velocity variance and a Context Gate for selective MIDI data triggering/filtering. Sixteen different MIDI effect plug-ins are available. You can insert most effects directly while playing and of course automate them as well.
Quantization Functions
Alongside standard quantization options for fixing mistakes, Cubase 4offers special quantization functions that you can use for creative purposes. Ultra precise quantization right on the beat usually sounds stale. Cubase 4 solves the problem by letting you do things like exempt selected notes from the quantization operation or automatically generate random mistakes. Twist the Swing knob, and the position of every other note is shifted slightly in the grid to create swinging or shuffled grooves. What’s more, you can extract grooves from MIDI parts and audio events and store them as quantization presets.
Music Notation
Cubase 4 features an extensive set of functions and tools for music notation and score printing. Your MIDI input converts directly into notation so that you can easily create scores of your compositions. The Score editor immediately shows every MIDI data change (for example, a shifted or abbreviated note) and settings such as the time signature and key. Each sheet of a score can accommodate up 32 note systems with up to eight voices per instrument.
The Score editor lets you view your music in the form of scores, including all the symbols and diagramming options that this entails. In addition, you can add lyrics and remarks as well as create drum notes, guitar tablature and lead sheets at will. In Cubase 4 the Score Editor has received several major enhancements, including a new inspector-style Symbol Tabs that can be individually collapsed and expanded, a special user-definable Favorites tab, and editing of multiple events using the info line. In addition, two master-quality Score Fonts have been added: “Jazz” and “Classic”.
Hundreds of professional notation symbols are available; simply select the tools you need to create the scores you want. The amazing MIDI Meaning feature translates notation symbols into MIDI parameters and offers a quick-audition function.
The Staff Presets have been linked to the Cubase 4 SoundFrame™ and its new Track Presets. This means that whenever a track preset is used that contains sound category information, a suitable staff preset is automatically assigned to that track. Vice-versa user defined MIDI or Instrument Track Presets can save custom staff settings together with the instrument and sound.
All settings in the Score Editor have been consolidated in Cubase 4 into a new intuitive settings window incorporating project, layout, staff and text settings. The new Score Editor settings window is a major workflow improvement and speeds up the process of setting-up Cubase’s score editor drastically.
Mixing
The Cubase 4 Mixer offers every facility you need to create stereo and surround mixes of the highest standard:
- Up to 256 physical inputs/outputs
- 8 inserts per channel

Mixer views can be also be stored as presets.
The Channel Strip window for audio and MIDI tracks can now also be configured to reflect your desired display options. Sections can be switched on or off, and their order from left to right can also be setup exactly the way you want. Configurations can, of course, be saved and recalled as view presets.
Full Automation
Every mixer knob may be automated. Cubase 4 supports numerous external controllers that let you ergonomically control the VST Mixer and intuitively record fades and pans.
High-end Channel EQ
Cubase 4 includes a new high-end multi-mode studio equalizer for each channel strip. This new EQ represent a major advancement in sound quality. With multiple filter modes and characteristics, the new Channel EQ is a creative tool, which adds character and depth to any sound – and it’s fully backward compatible.
Full Export Options
With the Export function, you can save the finished mix in almost all standard formats, for instance, AIFF, Sound Designer II, Wave, Wave 64, Broadcast Wave, MP3, Windows Media AudioPro. By bouncing tracks offline, you can save considerable time when creating comparison mixes. Surround projects can be exported directly in these professional multi-channel formats via optional encoders for Dolby Digital and DTS.
Automation
Cubase 4 offers a fully-featured automation system that allows you to automate nearly all mixer and effect parameters. The same goes for VST instruments, regardless of whether they are integrated plug-ins or third-party vendors’ instruments. Cubase 4 even offers five different automation modes: Touch Fader, Auto Latch, X-Over, Overwrite and Trim.
The Automation system in Cubase provdes two options for automating parameters:
Drawing Automation Envelopes
Every track in the Project window contains automation sub-tracks for all automatable parameters of the given track type, which you can show and hide on demand.
Cubase 4 allows you to draw and edit automation envelopes directly in the panel, and puts several line and curve tools at your disposal to do this.
Automation via the Write and Read Buttons
The Write and Read buttons allow you to record and play back automation data; Write and Read buttons are available for all mixer channels as well as for every effect plug-in/VST instrument.
Effect Plug-ins
Designed to put a fully-fledged virtual studio at your fingertips, Cubase 4 features a complete set of first-rate effect plug-ins for mixing, mastering and creating imaginative sound effects. In addition, many reputable audio software vendors offer effects in the renowned VST format that plug right into Cubase.
Cubase 4 compensates for delays throughout the signal path to ensure proper synchronization and timing regardless of the employed plug-ins’ latency.

Media Management
SoundFrame™ - Universal Sound Manager
SoundFrame™ is the collective name for a number of new features that form a breathtakingly powerful new system that manages all your sounds, presets and loops in one centralized database. Thanks to the excellent integration within the creative composition and production processes, SoundFrame™ has the power to revolutionize your workflow. The heart of SoundFrame™ is MediaBay, a high-performance media database with outstanding search and categorization features. If you’re looking, say, for a piano sound suitable for jazz with warm characteristics, just set these filters in the MediaBay and the right sounds will be shown there, regardless of which instruments provide them. MediaBay also allows previewing of loops in the song context including the tempo. Track Presets can also save huge amounts of time – importing, say, a vocal track loads EQ and your favorite compressor with all settings. And these are just several of the ways that SoundFrame™ can radically speed up your workflow: once it’s a part of your production process, you’ll wonder how you managed without…
MediaBay
MediaBay is the central Media Management system introduced with Cubase 4, and sets new standards in convenient, easy handling of instrument and plug-in presets, audio loops and clips, MIDI files, Track Presets, videos and even entire Cubase project files. MediaBay is so much more than traditional file browsers because it binds all media resources on your system directly into your creative composition and production processes.
MediaBay searches your hard drives automatically for media files and gives direct access through a clearly laid out file browser. User-definable search locations and a powerful filter section and category search functions make finding exactly the right sound easier than ever before, regardless of where the sound is located. The search results can be sorted by category, file type or any user-defined attribute. The desired sound is then simply pulled into the project using drag & drop. MediaBay even offers file organization capabilities such as cut, copy, paste, delete and rename, allowing you to manage and organize your media files directly within Cubase.
The Scope section shows a preview of the selected file; MediaBay then allows you to instantly preview audio and MIDI files as well as Instrument presets – even in the context of the project if desired. With the Tag Editor you can give any media file either your own attributes or use the range of predefined labels. These form the basis for the powerful category search and filter functionality that quickly becomes indispensable.
Cubase 4 also offers countless predefined Track Presets and categorized Instrument Presets – stored ‘patches’ containing all track or instrument information – that reveal the depth of the MediaBay concept. As well as the main window view, adapted MediaBay views can be called up in different areas of Cubase. The Loop Browser offers one-click access to your loop library and features previewing in the song tempo, while the SoundFrame™ Browser provides direct access to presets for any VST instruments, effect plug-ins and external hardware. When creating a new Instrument Track, for example, the SoundFrame™ Browser already provides exactly the right sound when loading the instrument. VSTi's and available external MIDI instruments can even be previewed directly in the SoundFrame™ Browser without you even having to load the required instrument in the VST Rack.
The Pool serves not only as a list of all audio and video clips used by a project, but also offers many processing tools for audio files shown there, including file format conversion and effect rendering. The entire Pool can also be archived and imported to another project – a boon for tzransferring projects to another Mac or PC.
Surround
Unlike many other DAW programs that merely mix mono or stereo signals in a multi-channel bus, Cubase 4 features a full-fledged multi-channel audio signal path from input to output. You can generate multi-channel Surround files as soon as you start recording, and then edit and mix these tracks using multi-channel-enabled mixer channel strips. In fact, you can process and mix any number of mono, stereo and multi-channel signals within a project. That goes for the entire signal path, including effects busses and groups.
An individual mixer channel can accommodate a complete Surround mix or a single speaker channel that is part of a Surround configuration. The Mixer’s SurroundPan function provides a graphical view for arrange channels in the Surround field. In Cubase 4, you can use multi-channel-enabled plug-ins that were developed especially for mixing Surround sound. Several of these plug-ins ship as part of the Cubase 4 package.
You can export your finished mixes via optional encoder plug-ins in the popular Dolby Digital and DTS Surround formats, or via the included WMA Pro Codec. Cubase 4 also supports MP3 surround, the latest achievement in audio compression.
Video
Cubase 4 is an excellent tool for composing movie soundtracks and scoring videos. It supports numerous standard formats (AVI, MPEG, Quicktime and many more) to ensure utmost compatibility with all types of video files.
You may opt to view video material in a freely scalable video window within Cubase 4 or, in combination with the requisite video hardware, on an external monitor. Another alternative is full-resolution image output via Firewire (currently available for Mac OSX only).
Cubase 4 offers a special type of video track. Video files are as easy to insert as audio files, for example, via drag & drop. You can view the video’s individual frames directly in the track as thumbnails, which tremendously facilitates composing soundtracks with frame-by-frame precision.
Software/Hardware Integration
Cubase 4 seamlessly integrates external equipment via MIDI Device Panels and supports the "Yamaha Studio Manager" to directly integrate external instruments and effect devices.
Studio Connections
Studio Connections is an innovative technology that links Steinberg's software with mixers, instruments and effects offered by Yamaha and third-party vendors. This modular editing system affords you total control over the entire studio using Cubase 4 and the optional Yamaha Studio Manager. You can recall the entire studio’s settings when you open a Cubase project. Graphical editing panels are available for Yamaha hardware, and you can use external sound generators such VST instruments.
External Instruments/FX
External FX plug-ins enable you to integrate external hardware effect units and instruments directly into the VST Audio Mixer. This means you plug any hardware sound generator or signal processor in directly - of course, with automatic latency compensation. Flawless integration is achieved courtesy of Studio Connections.
MIDI Device Panels
MIDI Device Maps/Panels afford direct access to external MIDI hardware via freely definable graphical knobs. Preprogrammed panels are available for many devices and can be imported directly. This also goes for VST Mixer Maps derived from older Cubase versions. Using an editor offering an extensive tool set, you can create individual control panels - even in the Track Inspector and the mixer channel strip.
Remote Control
Cubase 4 supports numerous external hardware controllers that let you control the VST Mixer remotely. Many reputable vendors’ controllers are supported directly, and you can opt to use these if you wish. Alternatively, you can set up any other MIDI device equipped with the appropriate knobs as a generic controller and use it to operate the Mixer and adjust the parameters of VST instruments and effect plug-ins.
Control Room
The control room section of a mixer is one of the key elements in every studio. No matter if it’s just about controlling the level of studio monitors, switching between different sets of monitors, communicating with musicians in a recording booth, or quickly switching to an external source like CD, DAT or DVD player: The control room section of a professional mixing desk brings all these signals together and distributes them within the studio.
Equally important and often missed on smaller mixing consoles is one or more independent monitor or headphone mixes, especially when recording a live band or multiple musicians at the same time.
Cubase 4 completely redefines the computer-based recording and mixing workflow in music production systems by recreating the complete Control Room section originally found only in high-end hardware mixing consoles. With the addition of this virtual Control Room and suitable multi-channel audio I/O hardware, Cubase 4 offers all the functionality needed directly within your software production environment - without having to use a hardware mixer.
The Control Room section in Cubase 4 includes the following functions:
- Completely separate output busses for Control Room and Headphone Monitoring, leaving the main mix output untouched by control room specific settings.
- Four user-definable Monitor Setups allow for quick switching between monitor systems including “Foldback” and convenient solo functionality for surround setups such as “Solo to - Center” or “Back to Front”
- Up to six External Inputs for external sources such as DAT, Tape, CD or DVD can be played through any Studio, Track, Headphone or Control Room Bus.
- A total of up to four separate Studios/Monitor Mixes, each getting their signal feeds from any audio channel, group channel, or FX return channel within the Cubase mixer. All of these channel types are now equipped with four independent Studio Sends, each offering level and pan.
- Talkback function allowing producers and engineers to speak directly to musicians/artists in any or all of the studios. This includes automatic Dim as well as manual Dim button to reduce Control Room output levels by 20dB.
- Copy function to apply the main mix to any of the Studio mixes with a single mouse click or key command.
- Separate Click Bus allows for individual distribution of a metronome click to Studios, Headphone and Control Room busses.
