Steinberg Cubase 7.5

Cubase is just an amazing DAW. Sometimes a bit over complicated but you get used to it by time!

My first MIDI sequencing love affair began with Cubase. The current iteration is an incredible powerhouse for composition, audio editing and mixing.

Very well put together and awesome sound quality. Some of the plugins are pretty decent like Loopmash & the Channel strip.

64-Bit processing, baby. I have 16gb of ram in my laptop, so it'd be awesome to utilize it all.

It is one of the Major DAWs that I don't have and it would be fun to learn

I decided to buy Cubase when i was studying, since Steinberg gives huge discount if you study music, when you buy their products as EDU versions, even though they're basicly full versions, even after you upgrade them.

When i first had Cubase on my hands, i was used to FL Studio, its workflow and features. Cubase was completely new to me, so of course, i had to check it out, and i can't believe how amazing it really is, yet im too lazy to get myself off the plane and start using it for good, because of my earlier experience with FL Studio.

But today, i'm using it confidentially to its purpose, i love it, it has everything that FL Studio lacks in quality. It's sorting out everything so i don't create a mess, and the mixer is my biggest favourite since it doesnt show a row of empty mixer channels like FL Studio, every channel is entitled to an instrument channel, or audio channel, and its so much easier to keep control. When doing automation, its even easier than FL to maintain, since its all collected into one instrument channel in the composition window, located in a row under each channel.

Which is why im happy that i own Cubase aswell as FL Studio, they both have a place in the studio today.

I use this to work with on MIDI, no audio, strictly midi. I prefer it over PT9's midi editor.

This is my main DAW of choice. I typically rewire Reason into it if I need some extra drum machine options or synth choices. But Cubase holds the key to everything else.

Lincoln recently switched to Cubase 7.5 for the 64-bit goodness.
