No 2 should have happened a long time ago. Just ridiculous to have to go back to the project window, move tracks then go back to MC. Shouldn’t have to wait for a paid update for that one. Make it in the 7.0.7 build.
Ability to arrange frozen tracks (like Studio One, but a better implementation that is fully transformable without loss of ghost/aliased/shared copies)
Batch Freeze / Unfreeze
Bounce-in-place (and that’s reversible; and that’s accessible via right-click)
Remove the 8 (6 freezable) Inserts limit
Ability to choose / remember “affinity” (which CPU cores it will use) in prefs
So much more, but those are my top five (in order).
Basically something similar to what Ableton Live, FL Studio 11, the upcoming Bitwig Studio, and other Pattern-Based DAWs offer. imho. this would be a great feature/option to have for Cubase 7 users who need to build their arrangement in a Pattern-Based workflow. If one prefers the current linear style way of working, then that’s always there for you. I just feel that the addition of a Pattern-Based sequencing option would just make Cubase 7 a better, and more versatile DAW.
Will this ever happen ? So far it has not, and I don’t have my hope up high that it will. But I felt that posting this feature request is worth it regardless if it ever gets implemented by Steinberg.
I’m not holding my breath, as I’ve logged it with support and added it as an issue, with no response in either case. It is the only issue I have with C7 though.
I still don’t understand why this is so difficult for Steiny to implement. I’ve wanted this forever, but am not holding my breath that the Steiny programers want to do it…or are even capable of doing it.
Yes it is speculation. I think the OP is drawing that conclusion from the previous 6.5 paid update. There is no reason outside of that to suspect Steinberg will do the same again, other than it may have been beneficial to them financially and they thought the work warranted the extra. I know I bought it because I felt it offered options I wanted and was willing to pay for. If they do the same again I will evaluate it on the same criteria.
smart tool like in SONAR X2 to improve the workflow with automation lanes, just ALT click to select range and double click to to adjust the range value (like in protools too) - no more macros!
I like the whole idea with the Sonar smart tool.
