How to fix WAV playback too fast or wrong in Cubase, and how to change Sample Rate in Windows 10 for Microbook?

How:

windows 10:

  1. Right click on the SOUND icon in taskbar on Windows 10 > Open sound settings
  2. In the new Window/Dialog (A), select the correct devices for both OUTPUT and also INPUT.
  3. Select DEVICE PROPERTIES for your OUTPUT device.
  4. Select ADVANCED in the new popup Window/Dialog (B).
  5. Choose the CORRECT sample rate i.e. 48000 Hz

The INPUT or RECORDING devices selected in the previous window (A), affects which sample rates are listed in window B.

 

 

Symptoms:

When importing and playing back WAV previews in Cubase, they sound like chipmunk music. Too fast.

  • Need a pad!
    • found 8 pads
  • Discovered discovery Omni: Type, Epic Synths , Flaming Supersaws, Loud Raving Lunatic are great dance synths
  • Discovered discovery dream searching soft (high, modwheel )  bery nice to play on piano.

Stage 5:

  • Add snaps to bridge clap

Todo:slice a breakbeat loop

A lot of offbeat beats, and resources, so gotta continue building and bouncing percussions.

It’s ok for the beats to go slightly off during this stage, because later once confirmed, we will be creating an accurate instrument

Stage 7:

Stage 8 : vocals

  • Recorded, mixed, eqed.
  • recording CHINESE version later, use this project
  • Read and research: rihanna vocal mix  http://www.soundonsound.com/sos/feb07/articles/insidetrack_0207.htm
  • Used Monodelay FX channel, and Ronin Damage on the exported vocal track for our DELAY track

 

 

Stage 7: Add inspiration PADs? Panning instruments?

 

Review:

  • Front part, too many empty dead space .. need pad, white noise or  surrounding ambience.
  • Mix bring out high pass .. for all instruments except drums  and vocals a lil.
