Excellent
This is an excellent introduction to matching music and sound effects to video in Cubase, and also how to go about using transitions, tempo changes etc. Gary shows how to do this on an actual project and it's very useful to see his way of working. He has a relaxed but very detailed way of teaching. Thoroughly recommended for anyone learning how to use Cubase with film. Thanks Gary!

A great starter
Really helpful guide to getting started with Video / Audio tracks in Cubase. Also learned some more advanced Cubase features for Transpose tracks and audio Reverse that I didn't know about. Great!

Extreamly Good
This course was very helpful indeed and really shows how powerful Cubase is
Quality of Videos
Excellent resource to look at before starting out with your first visual media project.
Clear and concise, easy to follow and one or two great work-flow tips I wasn't expecting in there. The greatest wins for me were the Cubase techniques used to implement effects, such as time stretch, tempo track and transpose. These were excellent. It does stray into a bit of artistic territory (good idea to use pads for ambience etc). However, I was glued from start to finish - excellent instructor.

cubase film
Very clear music making tips and tricks, could be clearer on the programming of the notes and chords, but overall one of the best videos I've seen on the subject.Also would have preferred if it was done in logic or pro tools as this is the program I use.

Thanks for an excellent course on this topic
I've used Cubase for videos before, but this is finally a comprehensive, well-explained tutorial on the matter. Great instructions, both in terms of what works well in a sound track and how to get it done in Cubase.
