I always feel that the Cubase channel Strip is so Underrated.
they should do that, who are don't recognize it, they are beautiful. because of third party companies have to build up in the vst protocols. its like symbiosis grown up deal;) but shure, you dont need too much 3rd party plugins, if you use correctly to cubase own plugins
Absolutely agree! I wish they'd put out an updated CC121 that totally integrates with the channel strip and components...
Honestly it's the part of Cubase that I use the most. It is excellent for preserving some PC processing power.
Cubase is the Beast 💥🔥❤️
Finally a producer how uses Cubase with a lot of knowledge and is entertaining at the same time (rare combo to find). Love your videos man, keep up the good work :)
Thank you Dom. I'm always learning many new things with your great videos. Keep them coming :)
yes finally Dom explaining us this cubase feature.
Hey Dom, listening to your tutorials is always exciting. This one helped me a lot
Thanks Dom! Great video as always! Precise and to the point with great demos on the sound applications! I always learn useful tips!! Thanks again!
Well done Dom!
Dom, Thanks for the detailed explanation of each and every CS piece of gear and telling us your preferences on how you like to tweak the knobs. Excellent!
Dom, you make this soo easy to understand. Thank you for the clarity. I have never really used it, but now I'm going to explore it more.
This episode was great Dom! Sometimes you just need a reminder that what comes in your DAW is very much usable and possibly easier to get a great result quicker because of how it's laid out! Also Cubase has high quality processing out of the gate :0
Getting started with Cubase, these videos really help A LOT!! Thank you very much for the enlightment, Dom. You are a fantastic teacher.
Thank you Dom! I found out that this is something I really need now :) I used Channel Strip before just forgot how powerful it is. Thank you for reminding!
Found this one very useful, lots of little points I've never used and will going forward. Thanks Dom!
Thanks for reminding me of the channel strip. I have glanced over this too many times.Cheers Dom
Man there is Sooo much more in Cubase the further down the rabbit hole you go! Thanks for all the insight once again! 🤙🏽
Man I really really love this channel
You deserve far more subs Don.
Thanks for this massiv Cubase Input of Channel Stripe. Your Videos are the Best of all. Thank you so mutch. Greetings from Germany
Thank you! Exactly what I was looking for.
I am going to check the channel strip presets now :) Great video Dom. Cheers
Yet AGAIN I learn about a TON of stuff already built into Cubase that I knew nothing about. Thanks again, Dom!
Brilliant! Love this one, definitely an underrated feature that's already embedded in the best DAW for mixing!
Channel strip is the best tools of Cubase for my workflow
Just purchased cubase 2 days ago!! Such an awesome DAW, love it!
This is a fantastic video! I have been using the Channel Strip utilities for years, but you just changed my whole methodologies going forward.
I now better know how to PROPERLY use these utilities for a better sound. Thank you.
Thank you Dom for explaining. I'm new to Cubase Pro 11 as an older LE4 user but your video's really help me out. I will view all I can 😉 Thanks again. Greetings from The Netherlands.
You're the shiz Dom. Many thanks for your video. Needed this one. Always learning!
great tutorial as always...thank u Dom!
I love the channel strip but can definitely utilise it more. Thanks Dom! Also love getting it up on screen quick with the CC121
A really down-to-earth explanation for each segment. I use the strip before plug-ins because it helps you shape each track sound on the fly and centralizes the control in a convenient location. Thanks for your time and presentation, Dom.
thanks big bro!!!! this was incredibly helpful and broken down clearly!!! even though i've watched many tutorials you've done, i still learned something new today!!! rock on!!! thanks so much!!! peace!!!😁
I am new to this whole process and these videos have been a great help. Thank you
I’m guilty of kind of forgetting about the channel strip a lot of the time. This video is awesome. Makes me want to fire up the Mac and get mixing!
You are a wealth of information Dom!
I watch your videos to understand how things really work. Just recently started using channel strip and love the way my mixes sound after applying a slight amount of plug ins later and now I will dive into this frequency 2 as you have examples in other videos of how well it makes things shine! Cubase Pro 12_UR824_MSi gs 76 STEALTh! Keep Rockin! Thanx Again Dom!
This was DOPE!!!!! Thanks!!! On time video!!! Looking to the Maximizer video!
Tube Compressor and Channel Strip are amazing!
Dom. Thanks for all the videos. I'd be totally lost without you.
Once again Dom Sigalas delivers another amazing video. You keep me on my toes Mr. Sigalas :{
Thank you Dom. Love the way you describe things. You make it so easy and enjoyable. :-)
I tried to start using the Cubase Channel Strip years ago when it first came out, but never really got used to it and kept on building my own chains on inserts. I'm now persuaded to give it another go. Thanks for another great Cubase video.
Funny how i was actually thinking of buying a saturation plugin this week, and forgot that I already have a really good one built it my DAW^^ Thank you Dom!❤
I just absolutely love the native plugins available in cubases channel strip. I just completely believe that using these adds ultra stability to the platform. Nothing is more stable than native plugs and they are so good!
your videos are really top notch. Thanks a lot for your excellent work 🙂
Dom, I know this vid is a couple years old and I should have seen before now but wow! This will help me a lot with plugin over use. Thanks!
Thanks for sharing information
Good explanation. Nice one.
Never used it before 😅 The possibilities! Thanks Dom for pointing this out. Much appreciate it.
Love what you do man and I love that hoody. Thanks for all the great videos and inspiration.
Thank you Dom for the in-depth video. I almost exclusively use the Slate VMR in my mixing template, but now if I need to add a de-esser, the envelope shaper or maybe a second compressor, I will start reaching for the channel strip modules.
Although I wish Steinberg would redesign the channel strip inside the mixing console. It would be amazing if we can have at least three or four modules visible on every channel at all times, because with the current GUI, it's impossible to use in the mixer without scrolling up and down and back and forth. Also some colors on these knobs like it used to be in older versions would be nice.
I have mostly used the channel strip eq as it works just as well as the plugins. The presets are handy at times and I like the drum eq preset which really makes the drums stand out. I often eq every instrument using the Channel eq and then do an final mix down eq on the output channel.
Excellent and clear explanation, well done, thank you very much for the investment and tolerance
I started using Channel Strip after I reviewed Harrison Mixbuss for a magazine and realised how slick the "restricted" workflow model can be. Good vid, and I love how you bop along to the music -
Awesome, thank you so much
In this vidéo, your sound is just perfect on my monitors JBL LSR 308 !
Thank's to you for your help, "Guru" Cubase and more ...
This is the best free software Ive seen. Respect.
Great video! I am educating myself on Cubase, and I chose it mostly because you have such a motherload of tutorials about it, and they are made so well, that I know I will be able to get through all the rough waters of starting music production!
There are lots of tutorials on other DAWs too, but many are just so bad or depressing (or the music they use for examples hurts my ears!! 🤣) that having your channel for information is worth a lot.
your video tutorials really amazing me every time i watch them thank you man i apriciate this
This is totally timely Dom! As my computer is getting older I have been using more of the Cubase Plugins to save on CPU, especially in the tracking phase. I should have been using the channel strip more the whole time, it really is underrated. Great video man!
I TOTALLY AGREE!!!!👍
Amazing... thanks
another great tutorial. thanks alot my friend
Dom!! You're completely awesome!
I didn't plan to listen to all of this, but I did, and am so very gratified!
I've been using Cubase since the very early days (even before VST) and back then Steinberg released a version with a channel EQ that was a horribly wrong algorithm. For compatibility, they subsequently corrected the error by adding a "High Quality EQ" button to the user interface, to switch to an actually decent EQ algorithm. I tested both of these extensively, but have been cautious about Steinberg's channel strip ever since-which is why I became such a Waves snob. But now, Cubase features so many great plugins, plus a great channel strip that I've finally been able to shake off my prejudice and use them all. As a late adopter, I really appreciate this video, and also your embrace of subtle tweaks that improve the sound of a mix. A big thank you!
Plus, your clear and concise presentation, along with your cheerful enjoyment of the process is truly an inspiration!
Thanks! Brilliant video again!
Thank you, it was useful, simple, educating and entertaining 🙂
Always learning something😊thx
Hey Dom, thanks for all the great videos. Would love to see a tutorial on how you got the ambience, lighting and acoustics in your room.
i use it now since 2017 which is 5 years and i still learn all the functions and shortcuts but also the Mastering level of production techniques.
i buy second hand mastering books of engineering and even Cubase fundemental books to learn along my work as i still produce and record.
Awesome DAW😊😃
Great vid!
Superb video Dom, thank you! What we need Is to be able to drop in 3rd party plugin's in the strip and external hardware inserts, not just the stock Steinberg ones.
Cubase el mejor! Excelente video Dom!
channel strip presets...I know what i will do this weekend ;) Nice video Dom !!
Hello Dom, that was a great video, thank you.
Regarding 5:27 I would say it would be worth mentioning that, although the PRE section (pre gain+polarity+filters) lays together with the eq, it acts always before everything in the chain, independently if you put your channel strip before or after inserts. PRE section is always before everything. I had before this confusion and manual is not clear hear. Master Chris helped me to understand this a couple of years ago.
Cubase channel strip is a win win situation
Thank you Dom.
Hi Dom, thanks for a great video!!!!! I have/had never used the channel strip before , but since watching this video yesterday, i decided to give it a go on my latest project ( an orchestral hybrid type piece!) to see how i would get on? Well, i can honestly say that, i have never mixed one of my pieces so quick!!!! It was like night and day to how my mixes have been before!!! I have not used all what is in the channel strip, i have used the EQ, COMPRESSOR and SATURATION segments of the strip and my mix is sound better than ever!!!! I really feel like i have crossed a bridge into a new world!!!! I am really happy with what i have achieved with the channel strip and will use it from now, even though i have many 3rd party plugins at my disposal!!!!! And it is all down to YOU DOM!!!!!!!!! Thanks for sharing this video Dom, it has opened my eyes and really helped me!!!!!!!!!!!!! Dom, you're the best!!!!!
Great video!
Excellent tutorial.
Great upload again!
Steinberg made a wise choice making this so comprehensive. Many mixers have no need to go searching for ‘extensions’ while in a DAW. The fact any installation of the same version will have all these capabilities built in is a wonderful feature for those who travel.
The side-chain capability of the gate makes for a great noise reduction feature for guitars, placed last but triggered by the unamplified guitar. The range chosen for the Hold control of the ‘standard’ compressor is just begging for an update. My Hold values are typically 50-200ms, all of which are at the first 2% of the knob rotation. I’m sure that’s just an error.
The sound of the tube compressor is pure gold.
Dude you are so awesome for this free content and information, Cubase should be paying you lots I hope. 11 Pro is Incredible.
Sir you are dope!...i am big fan from india❤️...i love the way you always teach us ...i am using nuendo 11...becoz i was using nuendo 7 earlier but cubase n nuendo are same though!!
😊 🙏 😊
thanks a bunch for sharing this with us. it's a very informative
lovely Vocals
A real men's happiness when he is doing what is like! Thanks for your tutorials.
Good explanation.
I don’t really comment that often on TH-cam videos but your videos are just 💯👌🏽. It’s already nice to watch, for fun. But then also really nice regarding the containing information. It makes it a pleasure! Keep it up man!✌🏽
Thank you my friend ❤️
Awesome man 👨
I used the channel strip at first and then avoided it because I was building my own insert chain. I may start using this again now. Thanks.
Thank you Dom! :)
Dom. You're the man!
Another great video. My cpu would like to thank you too.
Alex
Great explanation I like it Thanks
Im using the Strip when doing final mixing and adding vocals in Cubase, afte Producing in Bitwig...looping the Mix through my analog gear and then adding acustica audio on the stereo out inserts....but the Strip....makes final mixing and vocals...super super fast, you can really get to that final sound on each bus....so much easier than pulling up all these different plugins..especially in the final mastering stages, thats the value I see in the Strip......after youve colored your whole mix with your prefered 3rd party plugins/and or/tracking each bus through analog
I watch this video a year ago & just now & have seen things that didn't sink in first time around & I'm gonna watch it again, thanks Boomer!
👏👏👏👏👏👍👍👍I really love this episode Dom👏👏👏👏👍👍
you re a mastermind!thanks
Thank you it very nice
thank you !!!
Awesome
Finally!
I am a little late in seeing this but great video. I am new to DAW recording and I learn a bunch from you, Thanks.
Thanks for the free drumkit! Your videos are always top quality. Do you use OBS to shoot them? I'd be curious to better understand your recording setup and process, maybe one video about it one day?
