5. Use the Song Start value to set which frame on the tape that should cor-
respond to the beginning of the Song (position 1.1.0 in Cubase VST).
6. Close the Synchronization dialog.
This is actually not necessary, but probably preferable.
7. On the Transport Bar, activate Sync by clicking on the button with the
same name, or by pressing [X].
Cubase VST is now expecting MIDI Time Code to come in via the specified
port.
Sync activated on the Transport Bar.
8. If you want the tempo to follow the Master Track, activate Master on the
Transport Bar.
9. Start the tape (or video, or...) that contains the time code. Cubase VST
starts playing when it receives MIDI Time Code with a position “higher”
than, or equal to, the Song Start frame.
You can wind the device that sends the MTC to any position and start from there.
● When the device with the time code is stopped, you can use the Cubase VST
transport controls as you normally do, when it is not synchronized.
If you synchronize Cubase VST to Time Code you should also look into the Time
Display Offset described on page 467 and Sync Options described on page 470.
Synchronizing Cubase VST to MIDI Machine Control
(MMC)
This is described in the chapter “Tape Tracks – Controlling Tape Recorders”.
Set this to the time code position
where you want the Song to start
from the beginning.
