Syncing to Cubase

Syncing to Cubase

8 May 2009, 13:16
So, after working a couple of weeks learning the functions of the FG, I now want to learn how to sync it to Cubase. I have been looking all over the net to figure out how to use the play, record, ect... on the FG to control cubase's transporter. Is there anyone who would beable to walk me through it?

This only deals with one half of the problem, but Dan Krisher has published a video tutorial showing how to synchronise the Fantom-G with Ableton Live. See http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JUvPIOYfQYE&feature=channel_page.

That does at least show you how to configure the G to control a DAW, although it doesn't deal with things at the Cubase end.

Yea, I had actually looked into all of his videos as soon as I had purchased the FG. I have been able to setup the FG as a MIDI controller no problem, however using the record, play and measure navigate buttons on the FG to correspond with Cubase is what I am looking for. I do believe that it has something to do with a "Generic Remote" option within the Cubase software, which works with MIDI signals.

Does anyone know if those buttons on the FG send out a MIDI signal?

the same question, how could i use fantom to remote DAW ? in sonar 8, the slides and knobs are now learned by ACT, but the buttons ,play ,stop etc.. it seems that the buttons cannot send MIDI messages.why ? if i should make some setting like MMC MTC or what?

Hi chord881,

now that it's working for you, maybe you could explain *how* you managed it - I think there are some other who are interested in the solution.

Thanks.

first you start up cubase go to transport at the top were you see file edit on right
you will see tranport click on it and the menu will drop down select project synchronization set up i have cubse 5 if you have cubse 3 or early it will say syncronization set up any way check the box that say midi clock once you do that
it will stay thEN you can always sync your fantom to it then check your tempo
on the fantom enter it on cubase then hit the menu button on your fantom go to system select sync tempo go over to sync mode and turn the dail TO slave midi and
you are done any questions hit me up pass this on merry chrismas GOD BLESS
