Cubase SX
Cubase is the name in professional recording. Be it for the ambitious newcomer or the hi-end professional, for home
recording or big-budget Hollywood soundtracks.
There are good reasons why more and more musicians are deciding on Cubase: easy and really logical to use, it offers
almost limitless professional possibilities. With its VST and ASIO interfaces, Cubase also boasts an exceptional level
of flexibility.
Unlimited undo and redo & offline process history
Be anywhere, whenever you want. Travel back in time to that perfect edit when everything was coming together. With
Cubase SX you can 'rewind' to that precise moment in your arrangement where you now intend to develop on your original
idea. This is the power of the unlimited undo/redo functionality in Cubase SX: time travel is now a reality in the
virtual world.
With Cubase SX you have total control of your final production, even if you have 'finished' the project. One of the
great new features included in Cubase SX is the off-line processing of individual audio files which allows effects to
be 'stamped' onto them layer after layer. The off-line process history lets you can jump back to any individual process
such as a reverb and edit it, remove it or replace it with any other effect you desire.
Sample accurate automation
Automation adds flexibility and creative freedom to music production. That's three automation modes were included.
Choose between Touch fader, Auto Latch and X-over modes - this offers you even more choice in how you get your project
sounding exactly the way you want it. Steinberg also added something special: now you can draw various waveforms and
curves in the automation tracks. Not just for audio effects and volume, even MIDI controller data and MIDI notes can be
automated in seconds. Cubase SX turns automation into an instrument you can play.
Adaptive track mixer
Mixing is an art in itself. The mixer design in SX is an art in itself. To create your masterpiece you need an
ergonomic interface, you need top-quality audio characteristics and you need flexible routing options. Steinberg
designed a brand new 32-bit floating-point mixer just for you. They have also included comprehensive surround sound
mixing and panning controls. So you can now mix any project to 5.1 surround format for DVD productions. And of course
full mixer automation of every parameter is included.
Virtual instruments & VST effects
Steiberg included a fantastic new analog virtual synthesizer powered by Waldorf in addition to a 24 Bit drum machine
and a great-sounding bass synth. Cubase SX also features an extended range of high-quality VST virtual effect
processors such as the SPL De-Esser and the QuadraFuzz distortion unit. Combined with the plethora of virtual effects
currently available, the huge range of quality VST effects available as standard with Cubase SX almost overwhelm with
creative potential.
MIDI Plug-ins
Cubase SX offers real-time MIDI plug-ins such as Quantizer, Chorder, MIDI-Echo, Compressor and many more. Most of them
can be inserted while playing on your MIDI keyboard - a great source of inspiration. Just like any other parameter in
the Cubase SX mixer, they can also be fully automated.
VST System Link
This revolutionary new standard brings true connectivity and platform independence to the digital audio world. Not only
does VST System Link harness the full CPU and disk power of several computers simultaneously regardless of platform, it
will let you take your audio projects to new levels of complexity, and offers unbelievable flexibility in your working
environment.
VST System Link is a system for networking computers using Steinberg Virtual Studio Technology (VST) software and Audio
Stream Input Output (ASIO) hardware. VST System Link enables the transfer of synchronization, transport, and audio data
between two or more workstations equipped with compatible software and hardware over standard digital audio cabling
systems such as ADAT, TDIF, AES/EBU, S/ PDIF etc. And because it uses the audio stream itself, synchronization is
completely sample accurate, even across multiple workstation configurations!
VST System Link uses a single bit of the audio stream as a carrier for transport and synchronization information, plus
(optionally) other bits of the audio stream for MIDI information. Several computers can be linked in a daisy chain
configuration, each one passing on the accumulated information to the next via standard digital audio cables, with
routing to the various systems controlled by a master software "patchbay" running on the first computer in
the chain.
Professional score layouts
Cubase Score VST has for many years been the industry standard software used for film soundtrack production and music
education. This is because of its perfect integration of score-writing, sequencing and music production. Cubase SX
includes all of the scoring and playback features of its older sibling.
The amazing possibilities opened up by the new multiple undo/redo functionality are capitalized on in the scoring
section. Now you can "throw the new manuscript in the bin" and return to the stage where you got it right,
all in a matter of seconds - and audition exactly where you want to start afresh. Music production has never been more
intuitive, more creative, and more powerful.
