CUBASE Q&A - How to RECORD the METRONOME CLICK in CUBASE? And more...
Let’s talk about Cubase! I you’re a Cubase user, you will like this one.
In this video I answer 4 questions that were sent to me lately. One of them is How to record the metronome click in Cubase.
Recording the “Click” on a separate Audio Track can be very useful in some situations. Cubase actually has a super quick way to “print” the Metronome Click on and Audio or MIDI track. This is one the questions I am answering in this video. Hope that helps!

Hi Chris and thx for all your great videos that you are given for us. I have had much help from them thru the years, i am not technical guy and just want to record instruments and sing, and of course i also have CB 10.5 pro. Now if you don´t mind i have one question for you that i have been struggling with for as long as i have had my studio (20 years or so :-).’
I have al lots of vintage gears like TAB V76, Dirk Brauner microphones and Unfairchilds, EMT-140 plate all tube reverbs and so on. And also i have Universal Audio Apollo 16 and TL Audio M4 mixing consol and one Studer master tape recorder A80 1 inch. My BIG problem is HOW TO SET THE LEVELS BETWEEN my Apollo interface and mixing consol and my master tape recorder. All of my VU meters are showing diffrent levels, and i don´t know how to adjust them all together to make sure i have a good signal throughout the chain. Please Chris if there is some program ore some signal material i can use to calibrate everything and also how to start and and where to start adjusting the signal. I really need your help on this. Many thanks upfront!
A really devoted fan of your. Sincerely Eroll Carlsson from Sweden
Hello Eroll,
Good question. Now calibrating a tape machine is not my thing. I have a tape machine (that is not mine) that doesn’t work actually, never worked with it. It does look cool in my videos though 😉
As far as Analog gear goes, I do work with some gear during mixing and of course during recording. Like my Mix Console I use only when recording, not for mixing. So there’s no calibration whatsoever that I need to take care of. For your tape machine, you will have to dig deeper into this, but as a starting point, here’s what I can tell you. 0VU is the equivalent of -18dbfs in your DAW. If you want to calibrate your tape machine, you can send out of Cubase a 1k Sine Wave at -18dbfs and send it to your tape machine and make sure your tape machine shows 0VU. That can be a good start, but I know that there’s a bit much for it if you want to get a bit of tape saturation and stuff. Sorry I cannot be of more help!
