● The recording you make overwrites any earlier recordings at the same posi-
tions (The Master Track editor always records in “Replace Mode”).
Recording Tempo Changes from the Arrange Window
It is possible to record changes in tempo without entering the Master Track edi-
tor(s). There are two major uses for this:
• You get a better view over the actual position in the Song, since you can
watch the Part display while you are changing the tempo.
• You can use this for setting out "markers" for tempo changes and then edit in
the actual tempo values in the Master Track afterwards.
When the "Record Tempo/Mutes" item is on (checked) on the Options menu, and
Cubase VST is put into Record mode, it records any tempo changes and puts them
in on the Master Track.
● Make sure you don't overwrite (Replace) any regular recording when Cubase
VST is put into Record mode. To make certain, select an empty Track.
Tempo Recording works just as regular recording, using the Locators, with punch
in and out at any time and so on, but...
• The Master Track is always in Replace mode, that is, the recording al-
ways replaces the existing tempo Events.
Once in Record mode, change the tempo value on the Transport bar. Each time you
change it, the new setting is recorded. Recorded tempo changes appear in the Mas-
ter Track, where they can be edited as usual.
● For the recorded tempi to have any effect on playback or future recordings
you must of course switch Cubase VST to Master (press [
M] on the computer
keyboard).
Remember that it is only tempo changes that are recorded, you may have to set an
initial tempo directly in the Master Track. Also remember that this type of record-
ing does not use the Snap value, and is therefore harder to edit than a recording
made directly in the Graphic editor.
