That would work for me too - 8 is more than enough for me, and as I initially said, if I ever needed more, Group tracks allow for an infinite number of Inserts to be added. In fact, given that Group tracks already existed, it seems to me rather unnecessary to have gone to the bother of increasing from 8 to 16 insert slots when there really was no limit anyway.
I don’t think it’s possible in the project window. I must admit I usually live in the mixer window and with a high resolution screen it’s no problem in the project window either.
I think it makes a lot of sense to make it 16 inserts, especially because of the flexible pre/post fader divider. Gives a lot more flexibility, even if you never use the inserts. Also, just from a marketing standpoint, it wouldn’t make much sense to increase from 8 to 10 or 8 to 12 for example… that seems kind of lame. So why not go all the way to 16 since that’s a nice double of what was there before. “Double the inserts with flexible pre/post fader divider” sounds more impressive. And besides that, computer number schemes often follow the power of 2, so it’s so common for programmers to think in intervals of 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, etc…
+1 Keep the 16 inserts, but make them dynamic so more slots appear as you add more inserts. I only use a few and don’t like scrolling down in the mixer window.
Clearly I’ve been too many places and somewhere I shouldn’t… I’ve just realised this is the Nuedo forum. I use the new posts tab and it shows us everything. My bad, it’s been a serious feature request for Cubase for a long time.
Besides being a user feature request, PT has 15 inserts and I’m sure that the additional inserts in Nuendo will make it easier for some PT users to switch.
Yeah you’re right, I had it confused with Logic. Either way, Cubendo offers more inserts than both of them now, and neither of them have post fader inserts. I think it’s a nice feature upgrade.
