And they can’t, of course, be routed to fadeable groups, etc, making mixing and mastering difficult. That’s all fine and, essentially, behave just as if I were cdoing the same with a HALion Sonic SE instrument track.īut, because these imported tracks are MIDI tracks and not instrument tracks, I can’t do anything with them in terms of adding processing, etc. So playing-back and editing is fine as I can correct my playing mistakes and adjust note pitch, length and velocity. These (up to 16 tracks) appear as individual MIDI tracks and that MIDI data includes the coding that triggers the correct voice from the PSR-SX900 when playing back in Cubase. So I have up to 16 tracks of MIDI information that is imported direct into Cubase (the only way to do that is via USB memory stick). This sometimes includes some “accompaniment” tracks auto-generated by the SX-900 (which are often helpful, but I only use sparingly!). I start by building up a multi-track recording, part by part, in the PSR-SX900 (up to 16 channels) - mistakes and all. and the only way to master seems to be to play the mix in real time and record it into another bit of audio software. – all the stuff I can easily do in Cubase with audio and instrument tracks.Īnd there doesn’t appear to be any way to manipulate the audio with any basics, like compression, limiting, EQ, etc. And I’m guessing that’s the reason I can’t render the Yamaha tracks into audio, group them, add most effects, etc. My concern is that Cubase may well have the same MIDI data as the keyboard, but it doesn’t have any of the track voices on board so Cubase is, essentially, just “playing” the SX900, which has to be switched on to hear anything, of course.Ĭorrecting the note information for each part in Cubase seems to work in exactly the same way as for, for example, a VST (HALion Sonic) instrument, but it appears that Cubase is just acting as a remote keyboard controller so I’m just altering the MIDI date which is still controlling the voices on the PSR remotely, rather than in Cubase itself. I set each track to carry input and output data to/from my external Focusrite interface and all the voices from the Yamaha keyboard are reproduced just as they were recorded on the keyboard.

Looking in the List Editor it shows the numeric code for the Yamaha voice for each track and then all relevant MIDI data. Cubase recognises all the data, track by track. The way I work is that I record the multi-track session (containing my many mistakes) on the SX900 and transfer the whole “song” onto a USB stick and then import that data as a MIDI file into Cubase (Pro 11). I’m fairly new to all of this so I hope I describe things properly. I have, of course approached Yamaha about this several times, but they tell me to “Talk to” Steinberg!Īny help or pointers anyone could give me would be very much appreciated. Pre-sales advice from Yamaha indicates a complete synergy between Cubase and Yamaha (I understand Steinberg and Yamaha work closely together) but, as it stands, it’s not working for me and I suspect this is because of lack of knowledge on my part. The voices on the Yamaha really are something special, so that’s I am particularly keen to do things this way. I am pretty new to all of this and although I have found your online tutorials extremely helpful, it seems as though few people like to play/compose music as a rough multi-track “performance” on a keyboard, as I do, and then drop it into Cubase for (in my case, a lot of) tidying-up, individual track processing, mixing and mastering. For example, once I have got a track as I want it (and editing, amending is so much easier in Cubase than on the Yamaha keyboard), I can’t render it in place as an audio track and therefore add processing or control it in the mix in the usual way. Transferring the midi data into Cubase works well, but, after that, few standard Cubase manipulations seem to work.

I would like to ask a question about using a Yamaha PSR-SX900 keyboard directly with Cubase Pro 11.
