Automating the DSP Factory
Your actions in the DSP Factory windows can be automated in the same straight-
forward way as in the Cubase VST Channel Mixer:
If you activate the Write button at the top right corner of the Input Console, your mixer
actions will be written into a special “DS2416 Mix” Part.
You can record your actions during playback or in stop mode, in which case the changes will
be written at the current song position.
To play back you recorded mixer actions, activate the Read button before starting
playback.
The fader movements and button presses will be played back just like you performed them.
You will see the faders and buttons move on the screen, like on a physical mixer with motor-
ized controls.
You can automate any control in the Input Console, Channel Overview, Bus/Aux Con-
sole and FX Editor windows.
If you automated a control, you can still make a manual adjustment by “grabbing” and
dragging the control during playback.
Just remember to leave the Write function off, or your movements will be recorded “on top
of” the already recorded automation.
The recorded “DS2416 Mix” Part can be split, copied and moved in the Arrange win-
dow, and you can also edit it in List Edit, although this is fairly technical.
The general procedures for this are described in the chapter “Mixing and using Effects” in the
Cubase VST electronic documentation.
If you split and edit the Mix Part in the Arrange window, make sure to “reglue” it back
to one Part to assure proper chasing of the automation!
