How to use USB device like a USB microphone, or USB guitar Cable in CubaseThis was a frustrating problem for me and I found most forums did not really helpAfter hours of annoyance I finally figured it out and it's a very easy and quick fix.1.Download free ASIO4ALL 2.8 here http://download.chip.eu/en/ASIO4ALL-2.8_108174.html and then restart cubase2.Click Devices and Open Device Setup3Click Vst Audiobay and Change the Master ASIO Driver to ASIO4ALL v24.Underneath Vst AudioBay Click ASIO4ALL and Click Control Panelhighlight All devices you wish to use and Enable them.5.Still in Device Setup hit VST Inputs and check to make sure all Devices are there6.Exit Device Setup and under the Devices open VST connectionsClick add bus, and Add Busses. Your Sound Device should be the first Bus that pulls upand the other busses will automatically be whatever the USB Devices you enabled were.7.Last thing and very important, when you open up a new Audio track Right click where it shows Stereo in. Your usb devices will start at stereo in 2 and depending on how many you enabled go up in numbers from there.In my particular case I have a Blue Snowball usb mic as my first Device (stereo 2)and a Usb Guitar Cable interface as my second device (stereo 3)*If you would like to hear and test your sound prior to playback simply click the monitor button and unclick it at playback.That simple, there you go.This will work, takes and takes less than a minute.

I need to sync my snowball into cubase sx... its only recording on the left input not the right input of the audio wave. please help get back to work.

This is strictly a software setup problem. I use Sonar, but Cubase has to have the same features. Look for a PAN control and also where you MIGHT be able to select that both channels of the stereo are mapped to the single input. A work-around might be to bounce the input to a second track and then do a channel swap on one of the stereo channels, then combine them. I think Cubase uses the word "flip".
Search your documents for keywords: flip, bounce, swap, pan, and assign input. You can also copy and paste the recorded channel to a second stereo blank channel before flipping it and combining.

How do i get levels from my g track mic im using cubase le 5 i only get one side level how do i fix this issue?

The mic is only on the Left channel, and instrument input is on the Right channel. So in Cubase you need to select only the Left channel in your first track, and then only the Right channel in your second track, and then you can record Vocals and Instrument at the same time on 2 different tracks.

Using a Tascam US 122 with Cubase SX, when recording vocals red light (clipping) on the Tascam and in the Cubase mixer, I need to know how to set levels on Tascam, so there will be no clipping on vocal...

Make sure the switch is set to "mic/line" and not "guitar"
Your input level will be set by the "input L" or "input R" knob, depending on which side you are using. Start with them all the way down and then sing into the mic, turning them up until you get a signal about halfway up the bar in Cubase. That should give you plenty of headroom for clean vocals.
It may be difficult to get a good sound if you have one of those cheap mics that has a "1/4" jack instead of a 3-pin XLR jack. You might want to go to your local music/pro audio store and invest in a "condenser" microphone, which is good for vocals in the studio.

Crackling and popping during playback/recording, latency issues. Using Firestudio Project, Windows 7 and Cubase 5.

Turn OFF all resource hogs such as Anti-virus, Anti-pop-up, and other background programs. Disconnect all internet access such as wireless and Ethernet service programs. All these resource hogs and programs for instance that keep track of when to run scans just cause interrupts of the servicing of the high speed audio grabbers. Your machine should be BARE of all these hogs.

How do i get my samson c01U mic to work with windows vista and cubase le?

plug your condenser microphone into your computer before starting up the cubase program; then after you plug it into your computer start cubase; when cubase loads, press the [F4] key, then that will bring you to the audio configuration menu, there will be a speaker option and microphone option or what ever that stuff is; go to the microphone option and choose the microphone that you are using, then after you choose your microphone setting click close; then after that make create a [audio] then on the audio tab you will see a red button, by pressing that it will allow you to record, but there is another button beside it called a [monitor], press that button then it will allow you to hear your voice while you record your vocals. hope this help.

Omega Studio won't record to computer

The omega is like an external sound card. It has to be connected via your computer with a device driver,the software that came with the lexicon. Then you record on a software program such as Cubase.
Go to the guitar center for more help or go to google .com and type in lexicon omega. Lots of sights to look for answers or better yet go to lexicon omega's home site.

How to use blue usb mic

It depends on your operating system, but in XP, open Cubase. Go to the audio input settings, and be sure to select "USB Audio Codec" or "USB Audio Microphone" as the input device.

In Vista, right click on the speaker icon in the taskbar (usually lower right hand corner of the screen) and select "Recording Devices". Make sure to select the "USB Audio" device, then try Cubase again.
