Quick Guide

In this section we’ll try mixing down multiple recorded audio tracks to stereo, and creating an

audio ﬁle. Mixes can be stored as WAV or AIFF ﬁles, which can then be recorded to audio

CDs.

Launch Cubase AI and open a project ﬁle.

Click the [Start] button on the Transport Panel.

While listening to playback, drag the channel strip level faders up and down to create

the desired initial balance, then adjust the overall volume using the bus volume fader.

Drag the pan controls on the top of the channel strips left and right to set the stereo

position of each track.

At this point you can begin to use EQ to reﬁne your mix, and add effects.

As an example let’s try adding reverb. Click the [Edit] button ( ) on the left side of the channel strip to

open the VST audio channel settings window. Click Inserts 1 and select “Reverb - RoomWorks SE.”

For further details refer to the pdf manual provided with the Cubase AI software.

It’s a good idea to lower the channel fader a bit before adding an effect, since the effect

can cause an increase in the overall channel level.
