My performance tests don’t show a difference.

It’s possible you’ve found a difference, but the more likely explanation is you’ve got some settings different in your tests. Those DAWs have performance-related preferences that can affect a test like this.

While keeping the buffer setting at 512 I tried all different combination of options in the settings panel and that was the best Cubase could produce.

I understand, but that’s different than saying you used the same conditions in all 3 tests. These days, with hybrid buffers and asio guard, setting your buffer size to 512 does not mean you are using a buffer size of 512 . Try my test and see if you observe a difference.

If that’s the best Cubase can do on my hardware… and the other DAWs have optimizations and settings that are working better then perhaps Cubase could improve in that department.

That’s my point.

Me doing your test just Compares my Hardware to your Hardware and that’s irrelevant.
