You see where it is going? On shitload of auxes tracks… Imagine you put crossovers into equation where you want to split band signal and apply process only on particular band range… What you do, add another send track and automate send level (which feeds into that big tail rvrb send track) only on words you want cool. Now you want to emphase last words of the same vocal with big tail reverb to fill gaps, having rvrb on vocal track won’t work since it will include the words before. Now you have vocal line here you need reverb but you want reverb to be “duck” side-chained with dry vocal signal, awesome add another send track. Ofc you can say why don’t you use Ableton for that, but that is not point when we speaking about Cubase 13/14/15…įor ex: You want delay signal but also want a bit of reverb just on the wet delay signal, cool you add send/aux buss done. In Cubase to get that you have to manually program the MIDI or rather use 3rd party plugins (such as melda for example) the second method has it own quirks when its used on track that have latency plugins so you have to be careful. For example I had to make some synth line for client referencing some popular track where arp is used but “rate” parameter is automated. It’s not about making new gui and call it a day but rather it needs rewriting and making things ergonomics and more sophisticated. Arp/Step and all midi inserts are outdated to be fair. It’s more about Cubase’s weakest points, although the midi/score among other things are really strong points of Cubase especially for film music on the other hand modulation is practically non existent comparing to Bitwig/Ableton. Don’t get me wrong I am more pissed that lot of Cubase features are half baked and constantly breaking things that worked well previously. It’s not point using “those” daws instead nor changing concept of Cubase instead. If it’s not enough for you, by all means, use another DAW that offers what you need. ![]() Not to mention incredible sound production plugins that are simply as good, if not superior to 3rd part plugins, all thrown in with the original purchase. East West’s ‘Play’ and Kontact and as of late Soundpaint by 8DIO. I bought my own libraries that use their own “instrument plugins” i.e. You can’t seriously suggest that you will buy a program of that calibre and expect it to have £5,000 worth of libraries added, within the price of purchase, including full versions of all Halion and any other libraries.Įven so, I found some stock synths to be extremely useful. Anything that comes with it is just basic stuff. To echo other fellow Cubase users here, the program is not offering content. I have been working as a professional composer for films for over 10 years, and there is no other program that can give me the functions it does. The functions are seemingly endless and it can do pretty much anything to do with music production. In all honesty, Cubase is a phenomenal program in terms of what it offers. Instruments plugins are complely out of date.Īlthough Cubase can drive me up the wall with bugs sometimes, nothing much else bothers me. Ill be happy with any one of those.īy the way the “we” represents those who left cubase for for the other daws and those who are really thinking about leaving. I could ask for render in place or direct routing!? Also an important tool for mixing and mastering. I understand the extra effects and vst instruments but come on now! I could upgrade but I have no need to as I don’t need all the bells and whistles, just the basics to do what I need and multi export and re sizable eq/ch.strip should be available to elements. I could always upgrade but something some important to the use of the DAW should be available on all levels. ![]() ![]() I would also like multi export in elements. I have to adjust my monitor ratio just to allow my eq /ch. I run 3 monitors and dedicate one to this and my Analyzer. The one thing I miss and wish they never took away from element was the ability to adjust the Ch. Cubase has so many hidden gems in it and its easy to manipulate. I can complete and mix an entire project with ease. It provides me as a producer all that I need. I feel your pain but it’s bigger than what you think it should be.
