Install the update to Cubase SX 3 for 4: no pb.
Cubase 4 can be installed in a totally different directory, and continue to use SX3 independently.
Internet required for updating the dongle.
Comes with a manual handling and a "detailed functions" already very complete PDF + for even more specific topics on the disk.
For my part, I find no stability problem. I even noticed that pieces that buggie systematically for the loading SX3 with an unknown cause was successfully opened with Cubase 4.
SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE
ASUS P5GD1 + PIV 3.5 Ghz + 2 GB Ram + 2 160 + dd table tascam FW 1082.
I find no apparent change on the stability of soft compared to Cubase SX3, computing performance seem the same.
That is to say that with this config, you can saturate the process with three sessions VSTi very greedy (type of food lovers in NI). But with more sober plugs, no pb.
However, the app is very stable, crashes are extremely rare, and only met pbs are most often the wrong setting (like ASIO buffer too low)
The interface is greatly improved, and Vsti plugins come with the software are much more convaicants and a new classification system for VSTi preset 2 is ... eq window was enlarged Top ... All this seems more ergonomic and more flexible. I'm not talking quantities of new features that I have not had the opportunity to test.
OVERALL OPINION
Use for a little less than a month. The continuing evolution of software, always towards greater control and greater ease in creation. Of course, we must qd even taking the time to explore the features of the beast.
The transition to the new version is a natural for users of Cubase, one step closer to the summit.
