Alesis Master Control - Cubase LE4 Part 03 by HEATHDADDY

[areznaroque]

Heya DrFunk7777, that was amazing. I know it's 2012 now, but the Mastercontrol still seems so useful. I saw a comment saying you're not using it anymore but do you think it would have any problems with Cubase 6? Thanks in advance and love ur vids!

[DrFunk7777]

@areznaroque yo! i just picked up another one. HAHA!!! it works with everything man. i was in the market for another DAW, made sense to grab it again. still the most verstile thing on the market.

[HOWKAM143]

Since i have a usb midi keyboard ; wont adding this to my setup coz midi conflicts?

[DrFunk7777]

@HOWKAM143

no actually, works outstanding with my MPK49.

it will see both, and automatically assign them.

Master Control works as CONTROL assignments, the controller will work as midi NOTES.

[HOWKAM143]

@DrFunk7777 thanks that was helpful !

[DrFunk7777]

@HOWKAM143 my pleasure. glad it was helpful. :)

I want to play a Key on my Keyboard and want to play a soundclip, not actually a note of an instrument, I want like a 15 sec clip to play when I hit the keynote, can I do it with Cubase?? Please help me! Im new into midi :(

[DrFunk7777]

@hevanescencarrillo

you need a software sampler.

like Battery.

[SveinKB3]

Can you mix EQ with some of those knobs? 

[DrFunk7777]

@SveinKB3

yep, it's a midi controller, so you'd have to go into the mapping of the software and assign them.

[sxayaxang]

cool. lets make more video

i just start want to see more

and i am looking for a mastercontrol so i think this is the right one for me

thanks

[DrFunk7777]

@sxayaxang

it took me 5 months to respond....don't have much time to make videos anymore. =(

[curszondax]

does it have 64 bit vista drivers?

[DrFunk7777]

yes, the drivers are on the website.

[curszondax]

thanks heath.

[DrFunk7777]

@curszondax

no prob.

[habtin]

Hi. i like your tuturing. can you now show is how you can mix EQ if it does that also

[DrFunk7777]

like....an automated mix controlling the EQ?

[Spazimusic]

Hi man, Been thinking about buying this one. But I would love to see a video how the MC works with Ableton live :D

Would ya man? I'll subscribe :D

[DrFunk7777]

hmmm......if i can find time, I'll definitely do it. I can say from actual experience, that their built in template works flawlessly. stay tuned....literally. ;)

Hey i have a question. How do you publish or convert your whole song that you made on to your computer. I try to and it only makes it like 15 seconds. PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!

[DrFunk7777]

Make sure you click, drag and highlight your ENTIRE SONG. if nothing is highlighted, it might have nothing to mix/bounce. zoom out all the way, click,drag, highlight. When all the tracks are highlight, bounce it.

Cool?

[glencunningtonr]

yea man i figured it out by watching i think one of your other vids

Thanks!

[tontowilson]

Really informative thanks indeed. One question, I have the MasterControl, but can you tell if if its possible to control the trim of the track within Cubase on the MasterControl? As far as I can see its only possible from with the DAW itself.? Can you help? Thanks in advance.

[DrFunk7777]

nope, gotta be done on the hardware.

it's still pretty easy though.

just gotta control the outputs of whatever you're pluggin into it. Input 1 and 2 have trim control on the MC.

pretty useable...and Cubase is still pretty solid.

[DrFunk7777]

I sold my PT Digi 003 back a while ago. I find PT pretty useless. I know it's an industry standard, but I'd love for someone to tell me why PT is better.

ANYWAY, to answer your question, it works exactly like a Mackie Control for PT. Just faders, transport, hotkeys, etc. No audio.

I've got tons of plugins i'd love to give ya....BUT I CAN'T! FRIGGIN PRO TOOLS DONGLE!! HAHAHAHAHA!!!

Sorry man....juz playin. =)

PRO TOOLS PRO TOOLS PRO TOOLS

[DrFunk7777]

WHY WHY WHY????

Let me borrow your Pro Tools rig and i'll cut a video of the sliders moving up and down. I've done it. Just not much to talk about with a PT vid. All it does is control. PT doesn't let anyone except M Audio use audio.

Yet another reason ProTools has the market cornered on your wallet.

DAMN THE MAN! RISE UP AND REVOLT!

[wiselemon]

what type of midi instruments are you using?

[DrFunk7777]

the VSTi?

It's Native Instruments B4.

Pretty cool.

SIDE NOTE:

Use the Master Control's PLUGIN template and you can control the draw bars with your faders. pretty sweet.
