CI2 and Cubase AI5 - Product Guide 15 of 31 Steinberg Media Technologies GmbH – July 2009
6 Setup and use case examples
6.1.1 Desktop home recording studio
The CI2 provides all the necessary
inputs and outputs to record music at
home or in a personal project studio.
Not only is it possible to record two
individual signals at once, such as
vocals and guitar, but by operating
Cubase with the optional footswitch
connected to the CI2, the user’s
hands are absolutely free to make
music. And with true +48V phantom
power, the user can also use high-
end large diaphragm condenser mics
for studio-quality sound.
6.1.2 Mobile stereo live recording
Making a high-quality stereo live
recording only requires a laptop, two
top-notch mics and the CI2. And
since the CI2 is fully USB-powered
including its two +48V phantom-
powered mic preamps, there’s really
no need for an external power
supply. The provided footswitch
connector allows the user to control
the recording functions via an
optional footswitch, operating the
system during the stereo live
recording of the band’s next gig, the
choir’s performance or the
orchestra’s concert.
6.1.3 Mobile band live recording
To make a professional sounding
demo the user simply has to connect
the CI2 to the mixer desk available in
the rehearsal room or live event and
record in 24-bit/48-kHz stereo
quality. With the included high-end
effects of Cubase AI 5, the user can
then edit the recording later on, the
CI2’s AI Knob providing full control of
any mixing and plug-in parameters
within Cubase.
