Glossary
Autoscroll
During playback, this keeps on displaying the project
cursor in the event display of Cubase. In other words,
the waveform display will scroll.
Automation
You can edit parameters such as volume and pan to
desired values in the project window of Cubase. The
value edited will be immediately reflected and recorded.
Control Change
These are MIDI messages, numbered from 0 to 127, that
allow you to control a variety of parameters.
Cycle
Repeatedly plays back a particular range within the
event display of Cubase.
Channel Bank
A unit of consecutive channels which can be operated
by the CMC-FD. Up to four channels are regarded as
one unit.
Nudge
Shifts the position of project cursor in units of frame.
Bypass
Temporarily suspends effects such as EQ, Inserts and
Sends so that you can hear the unprocessed sound.
Bank
A group of the CMC-PD’s built-in sixteen pads.
Project Cursor
Vertical line (the playback position) in the event display
of Cubase.
Frame
One of the measures of time in the event display.
Freeze
Locks the track’s process. Effect plug-ins can sometimes
require a lot of processor power. You may reach a point
where the computer cannot play back the track properly
(the CPU overload indicator in the VST Performance
window lights, cracking sounds occur, etc.). Using
Freeze can help prevent this.
Velocity
This is MIDI information which represents how strong
(fast) the CMC-PD’s built-in pad is operated.
The phrase “Velocity” represents speed. For the CMC-
PD’s built-in pad, “Velocity” is effectively the same as
both the strength and the speed at which a pad is
pressed.
