Steinberg Cubase 5.5 Available

Steinberg recently announced a free update to its Cubase 5 and Cubase Studio 5 Music Production Systems.

The free update to version 5.5 adds new features and capabilities as well as a range of enhancements to existing instruments, functionality and workflow.

 

The update is now available for download for all registered customers of Cubase 5 and Cubase Studio 5 at www.steinberg.net.

The 5.5 update includes new enhancements for the Cubase audio engine that boosts performance in several areas, including improved resource handling for computers with multiple cores. Additionally, the included REVerence* convolution reverb and LoopMash* beat production tool have both been modified to offer better CPU efficiency, while the VST Bridge technology has also been updated to offer improved compatibility when using 32-bit VST plug-ins within a native 64-bit production environment.

Cubase 5.5 also sees a range of enhancements for both mixing and video work. Cubase users will note a new look to the Automation Panel, which also offers new automation commands such as useful new added Fill modes and improved Trim automation. The Quick Control system has now been extended to Group, FX, input and output channels, offering faster access to key parameters across a range of track classes. The new video engine offers full HD support, scalable performance and adds video playback capability via FireWire to the PC platform.
