![]() I use a Console 1 with the Fader next to this, so having track selections follow my Console 1 is really really awesome. I can see it being desirable to have your faders and tracks stay where they are, but at least you should have the option like mentioned.įor me, I use a Behringer X-Touch One controller, which is a single fader + track controls + transport… so for that usecase you (well me anyway) always want it to follow the selected track. I’m content now as I have my own solution for this now, but I still think it’s something Steinberg should add, as I now know it is a very easy thing to do. So in short, my Behringer X-Touch will now always follow my track selection in Cubase now, whether it’s done via my Console 1, via clicking inside Cubase, or using any other MIDI controller I use for selecting tracks. It would be pretty easy/trivial for Steinberg to implement this if they wanted to spend a little time doing it, and enabling it as an option for the mackie controllers. It’s a bit of a hack, and a very brute force way to do it, but it works very well. If I can’t find it in 10 jumps, I give up and try again next time track selection has changed in Cubase. I did some proof of concept tests for this, and put together a script in python that reads the information Cubase sends out to mackie controllers, and used that to make a very basic handling of banking.īasically it’s incredibly easy to see if a track is within the current bank or not, so in my script I just check if the selected track in Cubase is in my bank, and if it isn’t, I change banks up and if I find it, I stop, otherwise I bank down and see if I find it. “Left-align remote to first selected” and “Right-align remote to last selected”. It should be a auto mode and a key-command for it too. It is something that definitely should be a option. Original thread: Auto banking with Mackie MCU protocol - #2 by Starnaf - Cubase - Steinberg Forums It’s a really workflow breaking thing, and being able to have Cubase do the banking automatically would be a godsend. ![]() To be able to have it follow tracks 9-16 I need to manually change banks on my controller, and then track 9-16 follows. If Cubase would switch banks automatically like how Logic X does it, that’d make the life of all users of mackie controllers MUCH nicer.įor example, if my bank is set to track 1-8 my controller only follows Cubase track selection within that span. When using mackie controllers, track selection only follows within the currently selected bank. Just had a google search for this, and this has been posted as a feature request in the Cubase 9 boards, and I thought I’d repost it here. But as long as it’s not possible for auto-bank to work, it’s barely worth it. Now I’m considering switching back again since Logic has other issues that is a deal breaker for me. I switched from Cubase 8 many years ago since the first version had stability issues on OSX in the beginning. ![]() ![]() It would just be quicker using the mouse. Next I want to change panning of channel 400. I would need to press the bank button 100 times before reaching the channel I want. Let’s say I want to change volume on track 800. This renders any single-fader controller useless. The way of designing a film scoring template has changed over the years, but most industry professionals now days has a template with several thousand tracks that are unloaded (long discussion why, but it’s currently the most efficient way of working if you don’t have a part of slave computers) and organized into track visibility groups. Yeah, your way of working is absolutely impossible in an orchestral template. ![]()
