New DTouch for Cubase+Nuendo v1.4.9 BETA

Post by Support Team » 01 Aug 2018 14:24

A new DTouch for Cubase+Nuendo BETA version is available.
The new version currently is v1.4.9 BETA, and is available for download from our website.

The new additions are:
  • In the Floating Mixer Preferences Toolbar Panel, the "SHOW MATRIX" button is now called "SHOW RACKS", and it hides/shows the upper section of the Floating Mixer
  • In the Floating Mixer Preferences Toolbar Panel, two new buttons let you select the JUMP and DELTA Global Fader modes (See Chapter 4.5.9 on the User Guide for a detailed description about these modes)
  • The upper section of the Floating Mixer, which was previously dedicated to the Matrix, now contains many Racks: TRANSPORT, MATRIX, SENDS, and CUES.
    • Press on a Rack Title to expand it
    • Press on the "+" button to add a row to the Rack, and on "-" to remove a row from the Rack
    • Sends and Cues show the Sends and Cues for the below Track, aligned with it, similarly to what you see in the Cubase/Nuendo Mixer

If you are interested, please download & install this BETA DTouch version, then write here your thoughts and suggestions.
If you have any suggestion about some features that you would like to be added in this BETA, please write it here: we will evaluate it and eventually include it in a future BETA version.

Great start! I haven't had too much time to play with it yet, but at first glance I'd suggest 2 things:

The ability to bypass sends and toggle pre/post fader. Maybe a double tap to toggle pre/post and a button to bypass like the matrix window has.

Can we have an inserts section? That is, locations for launching folders that include our pre-defined plugin macros. That way I can hit "Insert 1" above the channel and be presented with a folder of all my plugin macros for insert 1. This would help save space since we are limited to 12 folder locations on the toolbar and folders can't have sub-folders.

Regarding the insert plugin macro, is there a way to put an open channel editor command at the beginning so I can avoid that step? I tried to use a key command and then run the macro and that crashed Dtouch. If you insert a edit selected channel settings at the beginning of the macro, it gives you the error before it tries to open the channel editor.

Something else I noticed is that the bring mix window to foreground doesn't seem to work anymore.

I'll make additional posts as I discover things. Thanks for all your hard work!

Nevermind, I was on mix window 2 somehow. It works on mix window 1 only.

Simply edit the macros and add in the first and second ans third place :
First : "Bring Project Windows to the front"
Second : Cubase Key Command>Edit> "Open Channel Editor"
Third : "Sleep" (100ms)

And after the regular macro

the first that comes to my mind is a way to sync views between floating mixers, I have two in two screens as a big mixer and I would like to see the sends or cues with the same config in both ones (optional of course).

Will see if more ideas come to mind


great new update as usual!

This! great idea!

And also yes to a way to activate and de-activate the sends, maybe a long press in the send slot? (I know you don´t like long presses!)

Thanks for your suggestions. I got it to work, but I had to play around with it for a bit. I had to open the channel editor with a key combination. Using the preset key command didn't work. I assigned Alt+shift+E to "edit channel settings for selected" and then triggered it with a key/key combination in Dtouch. I also added a close all channel editor windows command at the end, which might not be ideal for everyone.

I've attached my version here.
