How to fix locators in Cubase

The Steinberg Cubase recording application contains all the necessary features to record, mix and produce high quality audio tracks, and store them on your computer. The locators are a pair of parentheses, left and right, that mark the beginning and end of a particular section. They can be moved to any point of a track and used for various purposes. There is a way that will make the stretch between the locators repeat indefinitely. It is also necessary to support the entire song with the locators before exporting the finished product to an audio file.

Steps to follow:

one

Start Cubase, double-click on the red and white "C" icon. Create a new project by clicking on "New" at the top of the "File" menu. Click on the "+" button at the top of the fix window to create a new audio track. In practice, pagers are part of the fix window and can be used with any type of track.

two

Click on the transport bar. It will be at the base of the screen if the default view is used. Otherwise, it may be necessary to click on the "Window" menu and select "transport". On the left side of the transport bar, there is a small sub-window with two positions of the track in pulsation bars, labeled "L" and "R". This shows the current position of the locators. By default, both will be in "1.1.1."

3

Click on the next location number on the "R" label and drag up with the mouse. As the number increases, the right locator will move through the timeline in the fix window. Once you have left the beginning of the track, it is possible to click and drag the locator directly in the fix window.

4

Position the left and right locators on each side of a place where you want to preview, and click on the circular arrow button to activate the loop mode and the selected area will be repeated. To export the track to an audio file, set the left locator to the beginning of the song, and the one from the right to the end. Open the "File" drop-down menu and select "Export to file."
