Hi Eduado
I normally set all my registrations and pads etc up and play a song straight into the Genos sequencer.
There is generally a couple of mistakes here and there and things like note lengths ,volumes and panning may need to be done
I do not switch on my Focusrite 6i6 box for editing as there Is a Yamaha driver for that.
So I copy the Genos midi file to Usb and plug that Into my I7 Computer.
Open up Cubase and Import the midi file and everything will show up on separate tracks.
Track 1 where you play the lead all through the song has program changes along the way obviously because you change registrations whilst playing. Only the tracks you use show up In Cubase as separate tracks except the lead track 1.
The rest comprise of the separate tracks for the style and pads , left hand etc.
I put the Cubase patch In and when you go to each track, you pull the drop down and choose
Genos workstation for each track .
After that all tracks will play. All tracks will show up as a piano track as you have to rename them, then add colours to each track if you like.
The window that shows patch names is not right as you may have to search for the right sound, but I do not bother with that as the sounds you use are there anyway.
I would have thought that when you Import a song the right sounds would show up, but they do not. This Is down to Yamaha and Steinburg to sort these things out.
You get the same problem with all daws as they really cater for the Vst side mainly and pros.
I would like to know whether you can adjust things like EQ and effects from the Genos In cubase, but that is an area I have not explored yet.
You can desolve a drum track to lanes and edit notes, but that seems to be It as there are no properties in lanes. You can collapse them back to the single GM track.
I am not used to that area yet.
You get sound problems from different tracks and the one you are working on, but the way around that is to mute the bad tracks until your work Is done.
Play from the beginning and all is ok. Midi and Cubase is all about workarounds at the moment, but Vst Is straight forward as you build a track one by one
Once you are happy with your song, export back to the Genos and then you could mute what you want to play and the rest as a backing track. That is another thing I have not tried out using right hand and left hand playing to the song track .
After recording a song I then fine tune the registration and just play .
It takes a little time to get your fingers and feet In synco with your hands whilst pressing buttons, but It Is worth It when you conquer that side.
all the Best
