  1. Also, as far as the Midi side of it goes. You might need to engage the 'ASIO Latency Compensation' button(s) at track level, or globally at the top:
  2. First off, that latency setting is very high and would be a problem. You haven't said what your buffer size is on your audio interface. You need to bring the buffer size right down on your audio interface for recording audio (and take it up for mixing). I run mine at 64 buffers playing and recording then move it up to 1024 for mixing etc. Also, you may have to adjust your 'Delay Compensation Threshold' for Midi Instruments. I'm on the current version of Nuendo 12 but, your preferences should still be the same on your version of Cubase (see below). Normally, you can do a loopback to set it accurately. But maybe you can just move the figures by trial and error until you are somewhere close. Of course, it might be something else, but I would start with this for the Midi side of it.
  3. Try this: Bring Up the mixer (F3). On a channel strip there is a button (left side) that is for 'panning disable'. You can toggle this on and off. The right has a dropdown arrow for two types of panning: 1) Stereo combined panner. 2) Stereo Balance panner. To access either, you have to hover the cursor over the corners.
  4. Ronald Bruner Jr. on Drums and Christian McBride on Bass.

  7. Blimey, I didn't recognise him...!! I've seen him live a couple of times. Admittedly, the last time was over twenty years ago.
  8. Sorry, no I don't know who he is.
  9. This is from a few weeks ago. Assuming he hasn't died, I presume it's this chap.
  10. Links for three excellent sites (all free): Music Theory - Lessons Open Music Theory And an excellent (download PDF) primer on Jazz Theory: Jazz Theory.doc (uml.edu)
  11. Max Romeo - Wet Dream. "When pressed, Max Romeo insisted the song was about fixing a leaky roof, but few outside of the Carpenter's Union believed him". Lie down girl let me push it up, push it up, lie down Lie down girl let me push it up, push it up, lie down Look how you're big and fat, like a big, big shot Give the crumpet to big foot Joe, give the craddock to me Lie down girl let me push it up, push it up, lie down Lie down girl let me push it up, push it up, lie down
  12. Eugene Santini is on this track below. While looking at some YouTube comments, I noticed his son recommended it ...
  13. Indeed: "By Strack Azar and Michael Stevantoni. Voices by Oliver Zaciu and Michael Stevantoni. Bowie-scream by Keon Ali".
  14. Bowie and Jagger's official version of 'Dancing in the Street' is terrible. The A cappella version pi*ses all over it...
  15. 'The Sound of 007' is up on Prime Video:
  16. Blimey, BRX...That's a big ask..!
  17. 'Ears-R-Us' should set up a merchandise store in that YouTube thread...Judging by the over positive comments, they would make an absolute fortune.
  18. A YouTube post: Christy Miller... 8 years ago: "OMG, it's like watching your creepy uncle singing at a wedding with the band..."
  19. When I was in my last term at school, my school music teacher found out I wanted to be a musician for a living, he decided to try belittling me at every opportunity he could find. He was quite young and fancied himself as a bit of a musical hero. A proper show off. In reality, he had no ears at all, a terrible feel for music, wore Piano players boxing gloves and had an internal metronome that could have done with some new batteries. Finally, I had enough at the end of term when he really went for it in the final lesson.... He pointed at me from behind his upright piano, "what am I playing?" Me "God Save The Queen"...."In F....for some reason" Him again..."Oh, I see" and smirked..."what am I playing now?" Me "God Save the Queen...in G" Him "Playing games then?" Me "no, Mr Clement" Him "What's this then?" and played some minor chord nonsense in his usual non-musical way. Me "I'm not sure...I don't really know, sir" Him..." God Save the Queen in D minor...You need to do some ear training if you want to go far in the business". Me..."Okay, that's fine. But so do you, that was never God Save The Queen in D minor, and you know it...or actually, maybe you don't..." In fairness to him, no more was said, and I never saw him again, until I was working for Lloyd Webber and his JCS show in Norwich. At the end of a show, someone hung over the pit rail, holding a program and said to the MD, "where's xxxxx xxxx, the Bass Guitarist?" The MD pointed to me; I was actually standing next him talking at the time. "Do you remember me?"..."I was teaching you music" (or he said something similar" His face looked familiar, then it came horrifically flooding back...he said "Mr Clement"... Me: Ah yes, of course. Him, putting his hand out for a shake; "how are you?" Me: "F**k Off..." I then walked off with the MD for a beer...hoping Clement wasn't going to be in the pub. And he wasn't I wasn't proud of myself, and it was really out of character for me, also the MD was quite taken back with my behaviour. But we all had a good laugh about it in the pub. The MD found it really amusing, although myself, I was a bit worried for a couple of days...
  20. Although modern Jazz, I have played the two below enough times for them to fall into that category: 'Friday Night at The Cadillac Club' and 'Walk Between the Raindrops'. Big Band vocal & instrumental versions.
