Writing automation using remote controls
Automating the Mixer using a remote control device is basically done in 
the same way as when you operate on-screen controls in Write mode. 
However, when it comes to replacing existing automation data, there is 
one important difference:
•If you activate Write mode and move a control on the remote control 
device, all data for the corresponding parameter is replaced from the 
position where you moved the control, up...

5.Use the MIDI Input and Output pop-up menu to select the MIDI 
Port(s) to which your remote device is connected.
6.Use the pop-up menu to the right to select a bank.

limited number of channels at a time (often 8 or 16). For example, if your MIDI control 
device has 16 volume faders, and you are using 32 Mixer channels in Cubase LE, you 
would need two banks of 16 channels...

bank, and you can remove an unneeded bank by selecting it and clicking the Delete...

Audio processing and functions 

CUBASE LE11 – 218 Audio processing and functions
Background
Audio processing in Cubase LE can be called “non-destructive”, in 
the sense that you can always undo changes or revert to the original 
versions. This is possible because processing affects audio clips 
rather than the actual audio files, and because audio clips can refer to 
more than one audio file. This is how it works:
1.If you process an event or a selection range, a new audio file is cre-
ated in the Edits folder, within your project...

•Furthermore, the original, unprocessed audio file can still be used by 
other clips in the project, by other projects or by other applications.
Audio processing
Basically, you apply processing by making a selection and selecting a 
function from the Process submenu on the Audio menu. Processing is 
applied according to the following rules:
• Selecting events in the Project window or the Audio Part Editor will apply pro-
cessing to the selected events...
