- Get your Cubase streaming!
Be a great idea to watch this on your phone as the audio may cut it if you are watching on your main system.

How I got cubase in the live stream option of discord
Somebody told me you can stream cubase in a discord live stream when you use an fl studio asio driver. That's working but the performance suffers a lot.
I am using the standard asio driver matching my interface in cubase. I can still use the interface as an input for vb audio app without a penalty and the (not so well working) fl driver gets to be the output of this virtual mixer. (causing little to no harm there)
With this setup i stream the virtual mixer app, and boom i have the sound from cubase in the discord live stream. (without issues with my performance, so everything works just fine in cubase)
The drawback is, in the stream you only see the virtual vb programm. To compensate that I use obs as a virtual camera input in discord. And obs does the screen capture part. (and i can use full obs functionality for my screen capture while it runs in the camera input channel.)
Running a Discord stream like that is sometimes a bit confusing for people who don't know it. But they can ask if they are interested and its easy to figure out. (And its nicer then using the voice channel in my opinion. I did that when I made musik with people who took part in doing it on discord. And even then i gave them the option to turn it off the whole time)
Anyway... Windows audio drivers seem to be a bit tricky. They caused a couple of crashes when i abused them to much, so I connected a second interfaces to my computer. Its basically just a casual 2 channel interface, and I use it for my microphone. Or to be precise it is used by discord (or other apps) as an input and an output. While the output of this interface is routed in two input channels of my main interface. And that one is connected to all my audio devices and to cubase.
That way i can hang out with people who are into music production on discord, while mixing or doing other stuff and share what I am doing. So they can choose to listen to what it or they can do their own thing, or listen to others.
Its a complicated setup, and most of the people i met so far just used fl studio. It does not seem to be an issue for them since the driver still works with discord. But since i did not want to buy it. And i already had everything for what I am doing now. So it came down to some research and a lot of try and error.
The really bad part in going this way is that you need different drivers for your daw, the vb output, and for discord. You should allow somewhere in windows that multiple apps can use your audio drivers (since vb audio and cubase kind of share inputs), but its still important to have something separate for discord (since connecting to much stuff to one interface at least in my case will cause weird shit to happen and stuff to crash in all sorts of unpleasant ways) and that got me to the point where the best way was using the second interface.
It still does crash sometimes when i close cubase, and i have not fully figured out in witch order i have to close my applications to avoid that. But i´ll get there. At least i can predict those crashes now, so i am usually prepared and i am getting better in avoiding them.
And hey you see why using the pc monitor as an output was an option here. (the pre second interface struggle) You need something as an output for discord while you cause harm to your computer in different ways so its less boring to do. And that way i thought you can use your speakers and the monitor but i did not like it too. So i did something to get away from that point pretty much instantly.:) That kinda got me to the solution that i am using now.
But hey! Thank you again, and i hope explaining my journey (took me a couple of evenings to get through) was interesting to see for others with similar intentions in mind.
And there might be an easier way but this one worked for me so far. - ภาพยนตร์และแอนิเมชัน
Thank you for the Tutorial. After several trials and fails (with echo) I finally succeeded. Any Idea How to Send a Cubase project to discord and have in the same time input from instruments threw Audio Interface? If I switch to Voice meter Virtual Asio, I cannot have inputs anymore.
I like how complicated this is
Thx for explaining
I only have two input channels on voicemeeter, I don't have an output
Thank you SO much!
Also, you're really funny. Had to laugh real hard, quite often xD. Subbed, although i haven't even watched any other video.
Thank you mate.
When i go to harware out A3, I don't actually have the option MME: cable out. It doesn't exist...
Do you have any cable out option, the MME is only the windows driver.
@@aidancues I have the same issue, the cable out isn't listed. I was pretty sure I had the VB audio virtual cables installed. Do you need to get the paid versions?
@@PotatoEsquire hey there! I can have a check to see if they have updated either VAC or the mixer in the last year.
Have you tried to reinstall the Mme drivers just as a first point of Troubleshooting
man i love your project name
Thanks a lot!
Jeez windows 😴😴😴😴
For anyone who routes all these things correctly but Discord still is being weird, make sure you turn off echo cancellation and the Krisp noise suppression in the Discord settings under the inputs and outputs section in Discord. It will try to mute your audio because it thinks it is noise, works fine now after this last step. Thanks for the video!
Thanks for the good tutorial!
However, I just followed all your steps and Cubase just acts up and doesn't give me any sound at all anymore. Not on my headphones, not on the voicemeter, not on Discord. I don't even see the sound in the mix console anymore. I checked everything I did, even played around to maybe find a solution but just couldn't. Do you maybe know how to solve that?
Thanks for the super easy to follow tutorial!!
heyyyy that vb cable is paid and not free :(
Ahhhh sorry mate, it was free...3 years ago!
You literally take my curse in my heart. THANK YOU
First of all thanks for sharing this as I've been looking for something like this for many months so my partner and I can mix music together.
But I have 3 problems:
-Your Voicemeeter has A1, A2 and A3 but mine has only A1 and A2, how to enable the 3rd one? In both input and output.
-After configurating all, my partner says that he can hear me and my Cubase, but both with a robotic and annoying effect, so he can't even understand what I'm saying or what is being played.
-I can't hear my partner by discord, how to configure this?
Thanks again.
Sorry for the late reply mate, if this is still an issue jump into the discord I can help you out .... Based on the A1 A2 and lacking A3 are you sure you have banana and not v1?
I had the same issues as you. First make sure you open the banana version of voicemeeter("Voicemeeter Banana" - I had multiple versions installed although I have clicked on banana versions in the webpage). Then, make sure the routing is correct (the sound of your interface shouldn't go back to the interface, that's why you sound robotic - fix that by highlighting/un-highlighting a1,a2... on the right side of the faders in banana version ).
i dont have a3 !?? any idea
The versions of Vm have changed in the last 2 years, they added more fruit.
Not working for me...
Attempting to resolve this issue for 3 Hours...
Please send help...
Wow the first person on youtube to explain this in a way anyone can understand, hopefully it will work for me 🔥🔥🔥🔥💯
my sample rate is the same in both programs but sounds all wrong and saying unsupported sample rate in cubase and idea why?
not sure why but the person I talk to on discord can somewhat hear the instruments but not my guitar when its plugged in? though I followed all steps, adjusted sample rate and so on:/ any tips?
that grumpy part was so much fun ... loved it..... watched alot of tutorials and my reaction was just like yours at the end ...lol,, this one helped though...cheeersss
sounds such as music thats playing through a karaoke program
can i send the sounds from my pc into cubase with this program thanks
Thank you! It worked!
but its still going through discords voice channel isnt it. I want to get to a point where i can send audio to the live streams. And at the moment it only seems to work with shit drivers. When i use my pc monitor as an output. And thats a no no xD
PC monitor as an output? What the shit? Pop into the discord channel any time
@@aidancues Thank you:) i got it to a point where it is working.

Thank You very very much!!
Aidan: Thanks for the tutorial, very very clear. I teach Cubase in discord but my students don't listen in stereo, should I configure something else? Thank you very much
Unfortunately discord does not support stereo, we are using AudioMovers over on the discord Cubase channel. We have tested it for a few months now and it is almost perfect....you have to pay for it!
10 minutes ._.
hey, almost works for me too. i just still get the crackling sounds no matter what buffer size. also tried it with everything selected as mme and wdm. any help appreciated!
Edit:
also should mention the crackles only happen when listening to cubase. browser audio doesnt crackle at all
Is it anything in particular you are listening through cubase, or literally ANY noise through her? The Cubase link is updated now, should you need to pop in, if this is still pissing you off
same thing happens with me, did you got any solution of this??
any solution. im using ableton and it just cuts in and out the whole time. but all other windows sound go perfectly
I see, Just dont know how to fix the issue... Cubase sound isnt routing to A3 ( MME CABLE) ... followed all steps... gonna go back and restart the process....
Sorry my friend Ive been in bed, Have you got your shit working?
Jump into the cubase discord shit and we can sort it
@@aidancues hi there can you help me on mine?
@@Mikko21 what's the issue my friend?
I will be able to help you out later this evening when I'm finished work. I am on GMT, let me know what is a good time and we can jump in
That video should be 2m but you are talking so much that why its 9m
