Hitpoints mark musically relevant positions in audio files. Cubase can detect these positions and create hitpoints automatically by analyzing onsets and melodic changes of the audio.
Calculating Hitpoints
When you add an audio file to your project by recording or by importing, Cubase automatically detects hitpoints.

Calculating Hitpoints

When you add an audio file to your project by recording or by importing, Cubase automatically detects hitpoints.

Procedure

Import or record an audio file.
Cubase automatically detects hitpoints.
Note
If your audio file is very long, this may take a while.
Select the audio event in the Project window and make sure the zoom factor is high enough.

The calculated hitpoints for the selected event are shown in the Project window.

Note

You can disable automatic hitpoint detection by deactivating Enable Automatic Hitpoint Detection in the Preferences dialog (Editing—Audio page).
