THANK YOU STEINBERG!! Cubase 7 and Cubase 7.5 are amazing!!!

I love it when you constantly derail a Steinberg feel good thread , just because your unhappy you expect the world to roll over and play dead for you aahhh ???

WELL SAID FREDDY a big +1

Thank you, Merry Christmas to you too! :slight_smile:

Iā€™m sorry I donā€™t see long loading timesā€¦ long start timesā€¦bigger files size like 4.5MB. Loading times is even faster on 7.5 then 7.0.6.
Any how if my project file size were whooping 4.5 MB I still have 1 TB hard disk space so Iā€™m all set so whatā€™s the main problem with that?
And I donā€™t have problems with Cubase 7 doesnā€™t close on exit either and I have used Cubase on different computer and different setups etcā€¦


I donā€™t know it seem to work for a lot of users and some of you has major problems?
I wonder if you all have done XP32 tweaks on Windows 7 or Windows 8.1 that cause all this abnormality you all experience on your systems? You must done something wrong? :unamused:
Bad tweaks like example as I noticed some of you on pictures and videos you have share-----> disable AERO, set program scheduler to background task, disable virtual memoryā€¦ etcā€¦ No wonder why you all have problems!

If you want to know I have already made a great thread how to setup your computer correctly to work with DAWs. Make a search!


Iā€™m not saying it is always the case but sometimes from my own experience helping others with computers, it often come down to ā€œs-h-i-t- behind the wheelsā€ causing the problems. There are 1000 of wrong TWEAK sites on the INTERNET that claim they know how to setup the computer and for DAWs when they actually donā€™t know a s-h-i-t about how the new systems actually works.
Even large companies adds these stupid tweaks making it for the end users even more confusing? Often they recommend XP32 tweaks like ā€œset program scheduler to background taskā€ that worked on XP32 but only on XP32. Many of all this tweaks like disable AERO are just counter-productive on Windows 7 or Windows 8-system.
Example AERO needs to be active so Cubase GUI can use the right API calls from core-base in windows 7 and 8.1 still I see pictures of the internet complaining on that Cubase 7 graphic donā€™t work - whne they have no ā€œAERO ONā€ look like the computer were Windows 95? :unamused:
There you got one of your problems why it aint working for you ā€¦----> right there! :wink:


But its easier to blame Cubase and other softwares, hardwareā€™s not working correctly then the actual problem is YOU that you actual have f-u-c-k- up you system in the first place. Thatā€™s why it aint working! :wink:

Stay away from stupid tweaks that donā€™t work, if you donā€™t now what you are doing and donā€™t fix anything that isnā€™t broken and you will see that Cubase 7 will work just fine as it attended to do + all other softwares. :wink:



Best Regards
Freddie

No, it were meant to be positive thread instead of all ā€œpositive threadsā€- going ----> hijack to a ā€œnegativeā€ thread all the timeā€¦ :frowning:

A thread for WE that actual are glad and grateful over the product Cubase 7.5. Can you all please let us be glad that are happy without you ā€œpessimist usersā€ nagging in ever threads here, thank you! :slight_smile:


Thanks in advance!

Best Regards
Freddie

Itā€™s a great release other than the 30 or 40 crappy interface bugs that have existed since the 7.0 release a year ago.

Oh and for the record, I have not turned AERO offā€¦ The only tweak that I did for Windows 8 is customize indexing so that I know exactly which folders will trigger indexing ā€¦ so that it wonā€™t interrupt editing/recording

:stuck_out_tongue: Really annoyingā€¦! :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: ā€¦not :stuck_out_tongue:

Cool! :wink:

Yeah well my experience tells me that itā€™s sometimes behind the keyboard.

Surely a ā€œthanks Steinberg Iā€™m loving itā€ would have sufficed. Given that you have seen a number of users who are experiencing difficulties a little bit of tact might have worked better. I personally have had good experiences with Cubase, but I can accept that others through no obvious fault of their own have not.

I like Freddie, and Iā€™m glad heā€™s joined us from over in the Cakewalk forum. Heā€™s definitely made an upgrade from Sonar. :slight_smile: We need someone here in this forum who uses different fonts and all the emoticons ā€“ someone who is always jumping up and down like a happy teenager. Seriously. I mean it. This forum can get a bit glum sometimes, since most happy Cubase users are actually off making music, not hanging around here too oftenā€¦ and people like Freddie spice things up and bring some extra cheer.

Glad youā€™re here, Freddie! Hope you enjoy Cubase as much as I have! (Well, judging by your forum posts, Iā€™d say you already have!)

And yes, I agree with the sentiment of your OP. Cubase is amazing!

Thanks! :smiley:

Best Regards
Freddie

Short answer: The point is that theyā€™re happy with the application the way it is. Other users demand more from Cubase. However, since 7, it seems to be regressing in many more ways than it is evolving.

I urge you to voice your opinion in this thread: http://www.steinberg.net/forums/viewtopic.php?f=181&t=51853 that I created, so that users who demand more from this application can have their voice heard.

P.S. I quoted you original post in the other thread because I thought it was very concise and informative.

Cheers

Sorry, Freddie, I just think that with you as with several other inconditional Steiny lovers, there are no longer any dialog possible :

  • Iā€™m talking about missing features in RCE, trackpresets, etc. : you talk about ā€˜Closing on exitā€™ which was never one of my pointā€¦
  • Iā€™m talking about UI regressions and white masked cursor : you talk about ā€˜Aeroā€™ā€¦
  • Iā€™m talking about Genric Remote features and layout quirks : you talk about ā€˜XP32ā€™ tweaksā€¦
  • Iā€™m talking about features removed : you talk aboutā€¦ nothing. Itā€™s not even considered.

Few things, though :

  • Strangely, with Cubase 5.1 and 6.5, I have an optimal system which is working surprisingly well, considering that I have systematically three VSTBridged plug-ins in almost all my projects. And, most of all, both have a clean and working UI with several features that are missing in C7, this with much less resources usage and a great responsiveness. Isnā€™t it strange, and how do you explain that ?

  • A last one : I sent three months ago at Fabio Bartolini (guess you know who he isā€¦) a complete .nfo file of my system (in the same way, I guess that a Windows ā€˜specialistā€™ like you knows what this also isā€¦). Guess what ? He admitted in return by PM, after being, as you, suspicious about my DAW, that my system had nothing that could be really problematic. This was initially about an exchange concerning the dreaded 7.0.5 bug which was crashing Cubase when hitting ā€˜F3ā€™ to close the MixConsole. Remember this one ?

Iā€™ll stop here. End of this useless exchangeā€¦ :unamused:

And back on topic after another derail

This is a god send

They do integrate very well but there is a little latency but nothing that canā€™t be dealt with .

I completely agree :wink:

As a DAW professional, i can attest that Cubase is the very best in computer-based audio software, not to mention the most innovative program available. While there are various other applications that can do the job; most will fall short in critical areas, namely MIDI and audio processing. Sure there bugs but a true professional will present their critique in a positive way because they rely on it for their living or because they make great music.

Lets face it Cubase has to be more than an alternative to Pro Tools.
For me the fact that is more than just a studio recording software is itā€™s strength. I am a guitarist but love playing about with sounds and going places I have never been before. Steinberg has always been a DAW that encourages us to think outside the box. (I have been using Loopmash to re-sample my playing.) I guess that is why there are so many bugs, because they want to be so many things to so many users. I for one love that. I certainly am glad that I am am not stuck in a studio with bands rehashing all the old clichĆ©s - I would rather rehash my own and perhaps add a few unexpected things on the way.

I am not knocking those of you who run studios. Far from it, I think you do wonderful stuff and provide a really valuable service. Not to mention living a financially precarious life. However I baulk at the use that many people make of the word professional, as if it is a passport to some higher plane of knowledge and creativity. What is a DAW professional? I mean anyone can claim whatever they like on a forum and nobody would be any the wiser. After all did I not just claim to be guitarist.

The value of Cubase to me is not itā€™s perfection, because it quite plainly isnā€™t. It is its versatility and the possibilities that it offers its users. I may not be the best musician, but I have the best fun. Sure I get cross with Steinberg at times and irritated with Cubase. I am sure we could say the same about our partners, as they could about us. However, we still love them in spite of all that. That is the value of a long term relationship.

this is a inverse trolling? ahahahhah

Exactly +1

This is meant to be a feel good thread even thou a little bit OTT on the subject but non the less should still be kept a feel good thread and I find it really irritating that a person that was screaming and shouting for people to keep his threads in order has decided to act god and intervene on every feel good thread he feels he has the right to and change to subject back to his usual one man war on Steinberg ! VERY IRITATING

Can I join your club?
Do I need a degree?
What are the requirements?
Do I need extensive use with PT, Logic, DP, Sonar, S1 or that free thing everyone rants about because he has excellent communication with his users?

Orā€¦do you mean every-day Cubase user for the past 15 years who has grown weary of workflow and genuine issues being ignored while Steinberg prioritizes new features that attract EDM and new users with every new upgrade/update? Iā€™m not attacking this stuff, but Iā€™m totally against them making this stuff a priority.

I agree with you. Relatively speaking Cubase is still the best DAW for me. It still has a long ways to go, and Iā€™m pessimistic about any real marketing/policy change because itā€™s the EDM and new users who subsidize what you call the ā€œDAW professional.ā€ Ever wonder why EveAnna Manley signed that agreement with UAD? Ever wonder why Nuendo costs so much more than Cubase?

By the way, yeah thanks Steinbergā€¦your amazing. (relatively speaking when compared to the competition)

I have said enough now. I fear Sgt. Schultz is coming for me.

Guys, I hear what youā€™re saying, but come on, let Freddie be Freddie. Of course Cubase has bugs, of course it isnā€™t perfect, of course there are people who are dealing with issues, just like any major software! Iā€™ve criticized Steinberg my fair share in due course.

But to give Freddie a hard time when all heā€™s doing (in my view) is expressing his enthusiasm, just seems a bit glum, as I implied before. Just let him do what he does. Frankly, I enjoy reading his posts from time to time, and I think heā€™s generally more like a Steinberg cheerleader. So what? We could use that around here!

When we need a serious thread, we can start (yet another) serious thread. Thereā€™s plenty to be serious about. But letā€™s give the guy some space.

And who cares if heā€™s shouting with caps and fonts and smilies? He rarely says anything directly offensive, and if he does, itā€™s generally well-meaning from what I have seen. We actually need more people like Freddie in the world. And besides, those font/smilie options are sitting right there in the forum interface, and if you find it a breach of netiquette, just ignore him.

And finally, no one is saying that serious people and serious threads are wrong or not needed. I have had my share of problems with Steinberg over the years, and I will join the occasional angry threads if I think it will help. But this thread and other similar Freddie threads are just generally intended to be light-hearted, positive testimonial and opinion in my view, as are most of Freddieā€™s posts as far as I can see. Heā€™s human too, so Iā€™m sure he crosses a line sometimes, but generally, I find his posts positive and good-natured.

My two bits only. I have no beef with any of you. I also donā€™t know Freddie personally, although I remember him from the Cakewalk forum, and he was a positive upbeat guy there too for the most part. And I definitely agree with the sentiment of the OP. Cubase is indeed amazing. Perfect? No, of course not! Amazing? You bet. Letā€™s take a moment every once in a while to get some perspective. Granted, Freddie takes more than ā€œjust a momentā€ expressing his enthusiasm, but so what? Iā€™ve been around DAWs (and just before DAWs) long enough and can appreciate the golden age of awesomeness weā€™re in right now, and frankly, I can use a dose of enthusiasm to remind me.
