Q. Im Doing Cubase course and cant find the Battery 3 VST instrument.
A. Battery is third party software that unfortunatly doesn’t come with Cubase. We had to include it in the module as it is the only way for cubase to use drum samples.
You can get the battery demo here:
[url]here:http://www.native-instruments.com/index.php?id=demoversions_us[/url]
This will enable you to do the modules.

Q. I am based in Australia/New Zealand - the videos keep buffering ?
A. Our current video hosts do not have a server based in Australia (although we are told one is coming soon). We can place your connection direct to our European servers which helps to speed things up. Please email customerservice@sonicacademy.com and we can sort this out for you

Q. I am watching Making Music With Ableton Live Intro - but there are no modules 1-5 in the resources?
A. Videos 1 to 5 in this course simply explain the interface - there is no saving of the files required. all you need to do is watch. If you want to have a project open to view whilst watching these first few videos simply open Module12.als
