Recording Multiple Instruments

[degeorgedaniel]

Alright well, I'm new at the Cubase SX3...I just started today and it seems like a lot. I took a look at the instructions and tried to record. How do I record multiple instruments at the same time with my band? I followed the steps given in the instructions and I was able to record one instrument at a time. Isn't there a way I can record multiple instruments on different tracks (I think that's the right terms)? Or do I have to record everything individually?

Assuming you have an audio interface with multiple inputs, just set up different tracks and record enable each one.

can you go more in detail as far as how to do this?

There are several manuals that come with Cubase. Find the one called "Getting Started"

Start on page 105. Page 114 shows you how to record enable a track. You can press the same button for as many tracks as you have set up to record.

You really need to take an entire day to go through the entire "Getting Started" manual before you do anytihng else. This should solve a big majority of your problems.

Arming 1 track is the same as arming 10. You just have to hit the red button and select the input. Of course, the inputs have to be activated (press F4).
