How to Create a New Project: Cubase Tutorial

Hey everybody my name is Matt and I'm speaking to you on behalf of Expert Village. Okay the first thing you want to do is create a new project so if you go up to file and click new project you get a dialog that looks like this. These are templates that you can choose from when you are creating a project. I'm going to create a empty one so just click empty and go ahead and click okay and you will get a dialog that says select director. What you are going to do here is all you need to do is create a director on your hard drive to save all of your files. So I'm going to click on my c drive and hit create and this is going to create a folder I'm going to call this my cubase project. Go ahead and click okay and that is going to create the folder and make sure that is selected and hit okay. You are going to be presented with your main cubase window here. The first thing I'm going to want to do is to save your project when you created the folder you didn't actually save the project so go up to file, go to save as, go ahead and I save it as my project 01. I'm going to show you on my hardware what the directory looks like. Here is my c drive and it is going to say my cubase project so I'm going to click in there and you would see a file called my project 01 cpr that is the actual file that we just saved out and you would see a folder that says audio this is created automatically when you create the directory. This is where all of your audio files are going to be saved. As you are working on your projects there would be also other folders that are created by cubase mainly one called edit, one called fades, one called images. Never delete these because they contain important information. Basically the edit contains your off line processing, the fade is going to hold all of your fading files and the images is just going to contain the image files for audio that you use in cubase so you can be drawn quickly.
