Ok, it might be a little bit better than the mould on the back wall of their toilet being cleaned up.
But “This’ll change everything.” Not likely.
Personally, I haven’t used VST Connect, but I would have imagined that the latencies involved in comms around the world would have made shared sessions unworkable.
But I could see it being useful in recording musicians in isolated rooms in the same building, connected by GbE.
I have and with a 100MB internet connection on both ends (but 12mb up) and an average ~70ms connect latency, it’s kinda sorta useable. It’s not as cool as you want it to be, but not as bad as you think it would be.
So that’s 199euros for the automatic sending of the HD files from the performer to Cubase, and the ability to send midi over the net. Likely also latency compensation so you don’t have to fiddle with the events.
Sounds… a bit steep, but I guess that’s the price when something doesn’t have a wide audience.
it’s not something that you cannot accomplish in another way. do you need the uncompressed files? the performer can send you them via Dropbox, Gobbler, etc…
Watch and wait. Don’t expect anything overnight, but Steinberg have always been pioneers in this industry, and when the other players start jumping on the wagon the recording industry will once again be transformed. Just you wait and see…
so that means your now going to drop vst connect in C7 and it will become a redundant bit of software ? Well I must admit im completely unimpressed with this so called " going to change everything" this statement is one hell of a major flop !
Right back to my modular build !
Don’t get me wrong I still I use VST connect frequently and I like it very much!
The only bummer is that Studio pass only support Iphone?
Android phones like Samsung and Sony Ericson is the market leader on the market and growing every day in Europe still no Android app or support?
i’ll up load a photo of this new mod in a min in the studio picks cj , it’s changed quite abit OH sorry am I off topic ??? really don’t care to be honest , more Icrap poop , im never buying into that crap so it looks like me and Steinberg stay as is now , you not having one more penny out of me . what a waste of time and now is C7 going to take a back step and left to rot ??? VERY UNIMPRESSED
Hmm, this VST Connect Pro may actually change things for those who will use it. I don’t see myself using it though, it is easier to send one track or stems to the other side.
I’m glad they didn’t use this as part of C7.5 update, put some bug fixes next to it and charge upgrade price for it. Let it be separate, and let it be expensive, and let those who find use of it pay fair price.
