Cubase 4 Workshop - Track Types Pt 1 - Features

Cubase offers facilities for working with many different types of track, but what exactly do they do? Hollin Jones sheds some light on the matter.

One of the best things about modern computer-based music sequencers is that they enable you to work with multiple types of data as well as different sources and destinations for sound within a single environment. That might sound like stating the obvious, but just a few years ago the standard was to have audio tape or hard drive-based audio recording, separate MIDI sequencing, SMPTE sync for video and that was about it. Early versions of Cubase had various types of track, but all were related to MIDI and not audio, since it didn’t record audio at that point and virtual instruments didn’t exist.
