Features

What's New in Version 9.5

  • 64-bit mixing engine: Advanced audio engine calculates your summing, mixing, and effects processing with double-precision accuracy, performing each task with a high level of detail, dynamics, and transparency.
  • Automation editing curves: Precise automation curves for creating and editing smooth transitions while keeping mouse clicks to a minimum.
  • Sampler Track enhancements: Drag any MIDI part in the Sampler Control window and start experimenting with the instantly rendered audio file. Compare different settings with the convenient A/B mode, which features undo/redo capability.
  • Automation Range Tool: The new Range Tool lets you edit your automation faster, easier, and more conveniently. The Range Tool adjusts levels, creates ramps, and scales the automation in either absolute or relative mode.

Composing

MIDI Editors

  • Key Editor: At the heart of MIDI sequencing in Cubase is the Key Editor, the place where melodies, chords, arrangements, and performances take shape, and where ideas are sketched out and developed.
