Step by step
1. Keeping tabs with Cubase 9.5’s new Media browser
1 One of Cubase 9.5’s most obvious changes occurs in the right zone. If we show the right zone, we’ll see that there are now four tabs along the top. Where we previously had the MediaBay and VST Instruments, we now have VSTi, Media, CR, and Meter. Let’s click the Media tab.
2 It looks very similar to the MediaBay in the previous version, with icons for Instrument, Loops & Samples, Presets, and User Presets. However, they’re now joined by two new icons – Favorites and File Browser. Let’s click the latter. We now have access to all of our Cubase-related media.
3 We can also dive into our computer’s innards and pull out whatever we like from our own folders. Here, we’ve opened up our Documents folder and found a folder containing an audio loop collection. Clicking it reveals the contents in the lower half of the Media window.
