Your Personal Scale Assistant | New in Cubase 11

The Scale Assistant is one of the new features in Cubase that adds a significant tool to your songwriting toolkit, making composing without musical theory knowledge much easier and more accurate. When you open a new MIDI part in the Cubase 11 key editor, if you activate the Scale Assistant and choose a key it can prevent you from playing out of scale and stop you adding wrong notes, guaranteeing that you are composing in scale. Knowing that your musical scales will be correct makes songwriting in Cubase more intuitive than ever, keeping your music production sounding great and your inspiration flowing.

Sometimes as someone who knows theory well, it's hard to keep coming up with new and interesting lines.
This feature means when I'm stuck or bored, I can forget everything I know bash random keys and see what happens, super cool, an extra weapon.

[sbastian_mov]

You can't possibly imagine how much I love you Steinberg.
Thanks for making the art of making music much more enjoyable than it is.

[BlackDollMurder]

For me, this is the feature i was waiting for. And steinberg makes it more usable. This is deal breaker, with absolutely precision. I don't have a keyboard so I compose just with mouse.

Thanks Steinberg, for understanding the different creative minds we have and make this great product who makes my dreams come true.

Dom sigalas I love you.

[redfordmusicofficial]

My goodness! This feature alone is worth the upgrade for me! As I always struggle to lay down good chords and melodies. Thank you Steinberg and a big thanks to you Dom for these awesome videos!

[Steve_Nice]

I would seriously be lost if it wasnt for some of this guys videos, thanks man!

[arsalino]

As a guitar player who knows theory this helps alot to play the keys correctly, so now i can play all my digital instruments with precision, just like my guitar. Thank you Steinberg, ihr seid super.

Dom lots of great ideas can evolve out this tool. Just transposed a few lines into harmonic possiblities without frying my brain. 🎶 Boom! 💥

[djnaydee]

Great feature, although I get the feeling Fruity Loops users have had this for ages. Never the less, glad we now do as well.

[clintcompose]

this feature works so well from watching you im sold on it

[shonatarisa]

One of my favorite go to scales is the Mixolydian scale, so it's a game changer for me :)

[mubiomusic]

I'm worried that this is where my will to learn music theory ends. At the same time I'm really excited for the possibilities that scale assistant opens up for creating harmonies.
