Well, yeah, that’s exactly why I was “here” (with Cubase) for like … 20 years.
Not everyone needs all that obviously, I don’t anymore personally, and there are scores of musicians out there who never use midi for anything… at all… (… e.g. contrary to what the net seems to often imply, the entire musical universe actually doesn’t revolve around midi and virtual instruments and samplers and all that … ) … but pretending that it’s not there just because you like something else better is a wee bit silly. I love my Jeep and will likely buy another one, but I also know it’s not a Hummer, it’s a Jeep.
I don’t have to pretend it’s a Hummer to be very happy with it or to get where I need to go.
Yep - before MIDI it was all straight audio. Blow the guitar line - do it again or at least over dub. Same with all the other instruments.
I even remember having a cut & splice device for my reel to reel tape machine.
