Troubleshooting
This chapter answers frequently asked
questions related to recording with Cubase
LE 5.
Q1. I think I have configured the
input settings properly, but I see
no activity on the audio track's
meter.
A1. Make sure that the Monitor button of
the track is enabled.
Q2. I would like to record two
channels simultaneously in
stereo.
A2. Before you record, choose Stereo
track(s) or add Audio track(s) as
Stereo.
If the project does not have a stereo
track, select Project menu > Add
track > Audio and create the number
of stereo tracks that you need.
As shown below, you can confirm that
a track is stereo by the word “stereo”
in the channel display and by the input
display, which should say “Stereo
In” or something similar, when the
channel is selected.
Q3. I am trying to use the EQ, but it
does not seem to do anything.
A3. Confirm that one or more EQ switches
are on in the EQ section for the
channel in the Inspector.
