| The purpose of this thesis is to provide the framework and lay the foundation for certification courses in the software Cubase made by Steinberg. The course is intended to be on par with software certification currently in use by the industry. It is also intended that additional Steinberg courses should follow the guidelines laid out in this thesis for both image captures and formatting.;The thesis is comprised of work-files, course one out line, with the first two chapters completed. Recordings have been made, and compositions collected to provide working examples for the student through out the entire course, to better understand the concepts demonstrated. This course has been strategically outlined in the order of topics as book/course one of two or possibly three.;This first certification is intended to take a user with basic computer skills and end with knowledge of the basic structure of recording in audio, MIDI, and motion picture in Cubase. The learner will finish the course with a working knowledge of editing and setting up the workstation with most of the essential settings and preferences to work efficiently.;This course also provides the learner the key components to recording in most of today's digital audio workstations by giving key examples how files integrate with the workstation by means of plug-ins, automation, browsers and audio interfaces.;It is often difficult to discuss one aspect of the software interface without knowing another and vice versa. The outline of the book has been intensely researched and thought-out to best provide the average user skills needed to accomplish the above topics in as linear a fashion as possible in a very nonlinear environment, where many topics intertwine with each other. |
