Remote controlling Cubase
• Click “Reset” to revert to the default settings.
The selected function is now assigned to the button or
control on the remote device.
A note about remote controlling MIDI tracks
While most remote control devices will be able to control
both MIDI and audio channels in Cubase, the parameter
setup may be different. For example, audio-specific con
-
trols (such as EQ) will be disregarded when controlling
MIDI channels.
Accessing user panel parameters via remote
control devices (Cubase only)
Cubase allows you to control external MIDI devices through
user device panels. When you have assigned project pa
-
rameters to a device panel to be displayed in the Mixer (i.e.
when creating the panel, you must select the Channel Strip
Size option in the Add Panel dialog), you can access these
parameters through some of the remote control devices
supported by Cubase.
This feature is supported for the following devices:
•Steinberg Houston
• Mackie Control
•Mackie HUI
• Yamaha DM 2000
• CM Motormix
•SAC2K
These remote control devices provide an extra display
page in the Inserts section for the selected channel.
This page is called User and is displayed as the 9th insert
page for audio channels and as the 5th insert page for MIDI
channels. It allows you to control the parameters assigned
to your user device panel from your remote control device.
The Generic Remote device
If you have a generic MIDI controller, you can use this for
remote control of Cubase by setting up the Generic Re-
mote device:
1. Open the Device Setup dialog on the Devices menu.
If the Generic Remote device is not on the Devices list, you need to add it.
2. Click the “+” sign in the top left corner and select the
“Generic Remote” device from the pop-up menu.
• When the Generic Remote device is added in the Device
Setup dialog, you can open the corresponding window by
selecting “Generic Remote” from the Devices menu.
3. Select the Generic Remote device in the Devices list
to the left.
The settings for the Generic Remote device are displayed, allowing you
to specify which control on your device should control which parameter
in Cubase.
4. Use the MIDI Input and Output pop-up menus to se-
lect the MIDI port(s) to which your remote device is con-
nected.
