CUBASE noobfail question.

people don't read the fucking manual that's why :lol:

Im not trying to start shit here..but you're correct. alot of confusion could be lost if people would read the manual. I don't know what version of cubase you are using but the newer versions have a studio output in addition to regular outputs...you really should be using studio outputs as your source for monitoring.

What difference does the "Studio" outputs make? I don't have any problems punching drums (or anything else) in Cubase.

As previously said, you hear the previously recorded part and when you hit punch in you hear the monitored signal. What's so hard about that?
 
Cubase 5 has a savage array of routing for monitors, studio outs headphones and standard outputs. I was going to switch to another DAW because of the shite routing in previous versions but you can now even isolate the click to one or two outputs and even solo individual speakers in each output you have set up. all in software! basically you could have five different mixes running(using studio sends), and select which one you want down the cans.

Also punching in and out seems a lot easier and more accurate :heh:

sorry bit of a fanboy sounding digression but the options are so massive.

using the studio/audition is the way to go.
