All user reviews for the Steinberg Cubase 7

Having buy Cubase 6.5 with my job (which is why I do not know the exact price) in November, I was part of the "grace period" allowing me free update to Cubase 7 this brand nine.
Update the license key e-license immediate download without difficulties from the Steinberg site installation without any worries ... In short, it rolls!

Obviously, as a download, the manual is in pdf but it seems pretty good actually ... for those who speak English!
For French anglophobes, it will have to wait the translation ...

SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE

At work, they are nice and they provide PC "AlienWare".
Memory, CPU Quad Core (@ 3GHz) with 6GB of RAM and a few TB of hard drive (SATA SSD classical point ... for now).
The system is a Windows 7 Pro 64-bit.
In sound card, point of madness: a small M-Audio FireWire Solo.

Everything is pretty stable and quite efficient. In any case, it is enough to do the job: sound design & sound setting in the image on the video which can last from a few seconds to several minutes ...

OVERALL OPINION

I use it only for a few days ... since it was released just a week ago!
For other models tested, I have a choice: I started with Atari Pro 24, then move to Cubase, generations after généretions ...
Cubasis, Cubasis Audio, Cubase 5, Cubase VST32, SX 1/2/3, Cubase 4 / 5.5 / 6.5 and now this version 7. I am a follower of Steinberg!

What I like most about this new version:
- The new blender which, with its Channel Strip is excellent. This channel strip is a bit of a current trend "VST Dynamics" that existed on the VST series: Noise Gate / Compressor / Envelope Shaper / Tape Saturation / Limiter.
Each module can be activated individually, with a choice of model "vintage" and for some inputs SideChain shovel ... Really well done.
I tested the gate with ajourd'hui SideChain + Envelope Shaper for the Sound design and in a few minutes, I had the desired result. What more??
- The ability to place the channel strip insert in pre-or post-insert
- The "audio" at the top of the channel strip to walk super fast routing in the project. When bump on a slice can directly trace the routing (inputs) or down low (bus, groups, outings) in one click. It is fast and efficient!
- The display of a spectrum analyzer in the bottom of the EQ window. Practical and pretty.
- To show / hide the edges of the mix on the fly with a single click, without having to go through the tracks "to hide" which were a heavy disconcerting

What I like least:
- Consignments to pass pre-fader or post-fader, I did not find button. You have to right click on the item to choose ... Not great for ergonomics.
- Entering numerical values ​​in certeines channel sstrip seems bugged .... I double click on a button and it makes me enter the value for the button below ... Gasp!

So ... That's all I've seen in a week but .... if I find something, I say!

In any case, I love the new mixer that is, in my opinion, very powerful and very ergonomic.
I like it, it Cubase 7!
