One of my main gripes is not being able to save multi timbral track pre sets for VI's. I agree about the mixer though, I prefer Reaper's mixer. No I'm cool man,I just do most of things that are being talked about.I just make a few clicks no big deal. I thought tempo change was part of it as well,can somebody explain? Maybe thats why I'm used to waiting 10 seconds for a small section offline bounce(if I need to use it).I have so many other things to do,so letting the daw process allow me clear my head anyway.Ībout ELASTIQUE audio,I thought cubase 6.0 had it,as well as s the pitch shifter right? I'm not upset guys,I don't see any of the mentioned cons in any daw.I try to use them in the up most similar way. I never need freeze anymore,but when I did,if I needed change I would unfreeze make adjustment then re-freeze. There might not be a MIDI to audio key command,but I offline bounce and it import the audio file. Then cubase opens another session with all the audio files. Haven't ever seen anything quite like them.No I'm cool man,I just do most of things that are being talked about.I just make a few clicks no big deal.Ī guy that mix in protools was amazed that I could batch stem files all at once,offline as well. I could never make friends with the program, but it gets intense with that type of customization.įor some balance. P.S., Lawrence, if you love the logical editors, then check out Reaper in your spare time. There's obviously a TON that like about it, because it IS my number one choice for MIDI/Production work. WHY? Why not just allow all the deep editing right in the arrange/edit window ala Pro Tools?Īnd to end this little rant., I love Cubase. 3 levels of windows to go through? The main arrange/edit window., then into the 'part editor'., then into the 'sample editor'? Again. The audio editing is horrendous in Cubase IMO. It works fine, and exactly how you think it would for audio tracks, but it's completely different for MIDI tracks. WHY? Who uses that? Really curious!!! It's a huge PIA to actually create 'takes' on a MIDI track because of this. The lanes just pile on top of each other, like 'tracks' do. The way Cubase handles 'Lanes' on MIDI tracks is horreeeblay. The 'inspector' is great, but it's no substitue for a proper mixer. The fact that you have to memorize some little abstract icons to see the inserts, or sends, ect., and never at the same time is amazingly awful. Don't use Logic, or any of the other DAW's anymore at all., except occasionally I'll open up Reaper to use in Rewire mode with PT.Ĭubase' mixer is THEEEE WORST!!! Absolute number one gripe. I use PT for audio and "bands", and Cubase for MIDI and "production". To first clarify, I have PT, Cubase, Logic, Ableton, DP, and Reaper. must open/close menu for each individual activation), opening a track's MIDI editor forces the track to be record enabled, listening back to realtime render only possible if "control room" feature active (which is very inconvenient to use in my case), etc. VST3 plug library can't be organized by user, activating VSTi outputs is a bizarre/frustrating one-at-a-time process (i.e. At the moment we're forced to create automation with the MIDI LFO plug, the "merge MIDI in loop" function and then cutting/pasting automation data as a work around. Drawing/scaling automation waves by hand is not very effective, esp. if they were integrated into the existing automation lanes. send mod wheel to multiple destinations, with editable min/max/invert for each send (as can be done in Ableton Live).įull featured LFOs for generating audio track automation would be nice, esp. No quick bounce of instruments.That's a big one for me too.Ī simple way to route and manipulate MIDI controller data is still needed, e.g. Those areas, UI and UI workflow are where Cubase is - really inferior - to some, not so much "features and functions", and especially not with midi features, but general basic UI workflow and methodologies. Great product, dated interface and workflow in many ways. Too many windows and the awful "Stay on Top" thing. Window management is very poor on a single monitor. No quick temp fader grouping (shift select? nope) No non-contiguous range selection editing. No source destination navigation in the mixer. Can't see inserts and sends at the same time across the mixer. Poor track mangement (can hide?, no track list) Engine can't play more than one clip at a time on a track. No moving mixer channels around directly. (freeze something and insert global time) Subjective as usual (and some fans will go "meh, don't need it" to anything on a con list.) but you asked so. I was just wondering what aspects of Cubase other people thought hold it back/ make it inferior to other DAWs.Owned Cubase for 15+ years, still kinda like it, some of the more advanced features. I've been using Cubase for years and I've never really explored other workstations.
