13:22 > "There is a specific DAW that couldn't even do offline export !" ha ha ha .... I really have noooo idea which one that is ;-p but it must be a really PROfessional one. One with a really large TOOLbox, ahummm..... . Looove Cubase. Use it since 1991, even on the Atari ST. . The export function are great. and what you are showing is the Batch-Export. That one is kind of a life-saver. . Cool video ! Thumbs up.

I've been working on Cubase elements for years. Upgrading every year. Very recently I decided to make the jump to Cubase Pro 11. It's amazing...The amount of new features is both exciting and daunting But It's hella inspiring learning from your videos. You do truly great and important work in these videos. Thank you.

I lost literally all of my favorite sessions as an early cubase user when I hired great musicians and had the best collections of synths. I didn’t know that cubase wasn’t saving the audio in the same directory as the saved session and I ended up losing all audio in a 3 year period. These are the most important things to know and I wish I didn’t learn this the hard way. I’m sure this video will save a lot of people from some huge headaches

@@tronlady1 I had this issue and it was definitely user error. This was back when you could create song files or arrangement files. My housekeeping was dreadful. Somehow one session was saving in another session's folder and the rest is history.

Hi Dom, at 2:27 I dont think you need to check the pool regarding directories etc. Because by backing up the project, all files in the pool will be RESAVED afresh anyway inside the new backed-up project, neat and tidy in one place.

If it takes a 16 minute UKposts video, maybe it's the folks at Cubase who need a tutorial on how to make such a standard function more user-friendly and intuitive.
@DomSigalas
@DomSigalas Рік тому
I show you in detail and explain the reasons on why you might want to do these things in a production environment. The process is just a few clicks . If I did this and exported it would help nobody. But I guess you’d know this if you watched the video :) please do and you will know that Cubase is probably the only DAW with such flexibility in the export department.

Another life saving tip. Thanks Dom. I've only got two major projects under my belt and I thought I'd backed them up okay but I was clearly not doing a good enough job! Time to go back and make sure I've done it properly because, as you say, one day you'll want to go back.

Project Backup is SUCH an important topic, so I just want to mention a quick little blurb about blu ray storage for those who don't know! I have an uncle that works for Intel, when I was really young he mentioned to me how using blu-ray disks for backup is a great alternative to HDDs. non-spinning CDs in general last 20 to 50 years without corruption, compared to a hard-drive that's in use which can last 3 to 5 years until some data starts to corrupt. The corruption could be small, but its still not worth the risk if your job involves revisiting projects. Plus you can always set up a client with a blu ray project backup once the project is over. Single layer blu ray houses 25gb while dual layer houses 50 gb of storage. A 25pack of verbatim 50gb writable blu rays ( which equates to 1.2tb of storage) costa $106CAD on amazon. If u consider the lifespan I think its worth the extra buck. Definitely worth a look!

Genius. I just purchased the new 11 version a few days ago. I ve been using cubase for a while, and there was a time when I wasn't very sure if the daw was the best option for me. Specially with producing. I don't care about the daw-wars, never have, but it felt like i was missing something to get fully comfortable with Cubase. Obviously it was all about working hours and knowing the tools. Now, and partly thanks to you Dom, I feel more in love with Cubase and its workflow than ever! It's exactly what I need and that gives you a wonderful experience while working. Steinberg should pay you more royalties man! ❤️ ❤️

Hi Dom! Something IMPORTANT for mac users: If you use "minimize audiofiles" the Sampler Tracks will shrink to silence and you loose all your audio in them. This is a bug, a couple of people notified Steinie...so be sure to mention this. On mac (im on Catalina, not shure if Big Sur and older OS have this problem) you have to clean up the audio in the arrangement and pool, then backup with Minimize Audio Files.

Thanks for explaining the queue Dom. It is a very useful update. But this is still essentially the same process it's always been: Export stems correctly. What would be really impressive would be an algorithm that somehow replicated a usable interface for the insert VSTs used that you've inevitably lost, stably.

Hi Dom, I offer this in the hope it might help some users. As you know Cubase stores it's files and settings all over the place. This makes it a nightmare for enabling backups of things like your own key settings, macros, etc. If you save a profile or even backup a project you don't get everything. I have been using a program called BeyondSync for years now and I've just put it to very good use in my Cubase setup. BeyondSync lets you specify a set of folders on your computer and automatically back them up to another drive. You can specify the backup to run whenever you wish. Unfortunately it's not free but it's not expensive. If you use this program, once setup you can be sure that, say, monthly all your settings saved by Cubase to, say, C drive /users/yourname/ Steinberg/blah blah are backed up to another drive. and if all else fails you can retrieve them easily. Cheers!
