    Is there no way to insert markers on the timeline? How can I find particular sections of a project? If there aren’t any, seems like an odd thing to leave out.

    No markers yet, but that's okay. I just use a "dummy" track (a MIDI track with the default acoustic piano sound), lay out empty MIDI clips, and name them that way. It's how I'm building my current piece of Ambient.

    Thanks for the idea Oh Maker of Music! Before Cubasis I've been using Audio Evolution which has a good marker system I was used to and just expected it to be there. I'm just getting familiar with cubasis.

    I got familiar with Cubasis a couple months ago. I didn't care for it regarding EDM production, but for me personally that's not where it shines. Just finished a 45+ minute piece of Ambient. Will upload it later. Taking a short break from production. 😂

    ps. Can anyone confirm that have the same issue in the standalone version of "Iconica Sketch" on iPad?

    No issue here on iPad Pro M1 with iPadOS 18.3. BETA2

    @danbun Thank you for comment. That this issue looks on my iPad: YOUTUBE_1 and YOUTUBE_2. I am pressing the keyboard non-stop, and when I additionally press and hold the modulators, it stops playing.

    I have older iPad Pro 10.2", but I can not to check Iconia Sketch on it, because of too old iPadOS version 15.1 (I could upgrade to 17.7.3, but I want to stay on older version)

    @LFS Dear Lars,
    I didn't read the whole thread and I don't know if anyone mentioned it, but I found a bug in "Iconica Sketch" - it apear in the standalone version on the iPad (iPad Pro 11" M1 with iPadOS 17.6.1). When I press and hold PITCH or MOD on the screen, I can't play the keyboard on the screen at the same time - the keys don't respond, the yellow color doesn't appear on the keys and the sounds don't play. I reinstalled the app and restarted the iPad, but it didn't help.

    ...

    On the same time in the AUv3 version of "Iconia Sketch" in Garageband on iPad the app works correctly - probably because the keyboard comes from Garageband.

    On the iPhone (13 Mini with iOS 18.O) in standalone version of "Icona Sketch" everything is OK.

    Kind regards, Dakti

    ps. Can anyone confirm that have the same issue in the standalone version of "Iconica Sketch" on iPad?

    Hi @dakti

    Thanks for your message.

    Gave the issue a short check on the iPad Mini Gen 6 with iPadOS 18.2.1 where things work as expected.

    Does the issue also occur when you touch the wheels, or while turning a parameter knob or holding down the articulation button (while playing the keyboard)?

    Best,

    @LFS In Iconica Sketch for iPad, what is the difference between the Level and Main parameter on every instrument? To me they seem to be identical, only effecting the output sound level.

    I was hoping Level or Main could also influence for instance vibrato depth. For Violins I, there is practically speaking zero difference between the sustain and sustain vibrato articulations.

    Dear Lars @LFS,

    Thank you for the answer. In the screenshot at the end I marked 3 zones: green, yellow and red.

    • Green
      When I press and hold the BUTTONS, I can play the keyboard
      When I press and move the BUTTONS, I can play the keyboard

    • Yellow
      When I press and hold the KNOBS, I can play the keyboard
      When I press and move the KNOBS, I can NOT play the keyboard

    • Red
      When I press and hold the PITCH or MOD, I can NOT play the keyboard
      When I press and move the PITCH or MOD, I can NOT play the keyboard

    Please note that this concern only standalone version of the app. Just out of curiosity, am I the only one who has reported this problem? :)

    Kind regards, Dakti

    I started a new project and I am getting tons of stuck notes in Cubasis 3.7 and. iOS 18.2.1.

    When I try to record midi from the ChordBud and other time from ArpBud lots of stuck notes get recorded.

    It is my first project since Cubasis 3.7 and the recent iOS update.

    Anybody else as that problem?

    I share your thoughts on this. The two volume controls also perplexed me but I use the 'level' knob for expression control and use the 'main' knob to set the basic volume of the voice so that it's not too loud or soft while using expression. hope that makes sense.
    The vibrato articulations don't really seem to do anything.
    One more vexation for me is that the sustained voices like legato don't use velocity like the staccato voices. I don't see why they can't have that as well as expression.

  • Hi @zedzdeadbaby, Hi @ecou, Hi all,

    You can give it a try to get around the hanging notes issue, via disabling “Return too Start Position on Stop” (located under “Setup/General”, and let me know if this resolves the problem.

    The issue itself is planned to be resolved in the next Cubasis maintenance update among other fixes and improvements. The update is scheduled for release upon the completion of engineering and testing.

    @LFS Is there any possibility of having mod wheel/expression as an exposed au parameter? It’s a pretty big damper to not be able to assign this to a controller. I use a digital piano without a mod wheel, and it would much easier to do compositions when I can control expression with a midi controller in real time while I play.

    Hi @MrStochastic, Hi @bleep,

    Level
    Sets the volume of the articulation. By default, the articulations are pre-balanced.

    Main
    Sets the overall volume of the instrument.
    This setting affects the entire instrument, not just the selected articulation.

  • @LFS it appears that automation values are hidden by the horizontal scale slider on iPad. I didn't even know these values were displayed until I had a quick play on iPhone (don't usually use iPhone for Cubasis work) after the update. The iPhone doesn't display this slider. Is there a way to hide that slider?
