- Concluding with the update 4.1.0 I have no problems

[the installation is done it without problem? ]
Without any worries, whether on PC or Mac. The only downside is (and always will be) the USB security record. It's heavy, it's annoying, it's no use!

[have you encountered any incompatibilities? ]
PC, I had big problems with my Xenyx 1204. I could configure my input on one channel and the sound was pretty bad. This problem was partially settled by the Muse to version 4.5 of Cubase.
On my Mac, it went like a letter in the mail!

[the general configuration is easy? ]
Ben is Cubase ... The real thing over the top and Cubase. The general setup is simple if you want to keep it simple. As soon as one speaks of mastering tricks or individuals must be of the trade

[the manual is clear and sufficient? ]
Ah yes, the bible of 2 tons (+ the thousands of existing books ...)!

SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE

[what is the configuration of your computer? ]
PC: AMD Athlon 64 X2 - 4GB RAM - 500 GB HDD
MAC: Macbook Pro (Late 2010) - i5 2.4GHz - 4GB RAM - 750 GB disk (disk replaced because the original 320 GB was not enough)

[the software runs he correctly on this configuration? ]
Perfectly well on platform 2 (a little better on the Macbook, but that's normal).

OVERALL OPINION

[how long you use it? ]
4 years.

[did you tried many other models before buying it? ]
No novice in the middle of recording, I was working (if you can say it as well) on apps like Magix Music Studio ...

[what is so special that you love the most, least? ]
Goodies: Full, Cubase is a reference
Cons: complexity of use for novices, the price

[how would you rate the quality / price? ]
The price is up to the software and reputation.

[with experience, you do again this choice? ]
Oh no! I gave up after nearly four years to go to Logic Pro.

- Installation is it without problem? No
- Have you experienced any incompatibility? No
- The configuration gnrale is easy? Yes, think about restarting after installation because the log does not automatically licensed and Control shows that the dongle does not contain code ... (The flip, the dpart)
- The manual is clear and sufficient? ... I did not read

SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE

- What is the configuration of your computer?
Motherboard: P5W DH Deluxe
Processor: Core2 Duo E6400
Ram: 2GB DDR2
Sound Card: EMU 0404
Keyboard matre EMU X-Board.
- The software works he correctly on this configuration? No worries for now.
- What performance? (If quantifiable) request more resources than the SX3.
- This software + hardware configuration is stable? At the moment nothing has jump.
I bank with boss sounds I have not tried the recordings of "real" instrumentals.

Big fear APRS purchase since I heard about a lot of compatibility problems with VSTis infrieurs 2.4, I possde EWQL silver box and Plugsound respectively 2.3 and 2.0, no worries , they set off without problem and are very stable.
The bank has offered HALionOne ... trs average, do not expect it to work srieusement.
SX3 open nickel projects, for cons I think I read once renregistrs they are more readable on the three versions.

OVERALL OPINION

- How long have you use it? 1 week
- What is the particular feature you like best and least? At least not export MP3, which will make me change my ways and I headed a free-form ^ ^ (OGG)
- Have you tried many other models before acqurir? SX3
- How do you report qualitprix? Well, since I use it as SX so it is a SL.
- With the exprience, you do again this choice? ... No problem, I economy the price of the SX4 version since I use it as an amateur, with no major needs.

No problem
Not
More or less compared the SE version on which I worked long you get used to and we know where are the options and then all of a sudden she is also a form Different. I have trouble with but you get used to.
I have traveled faster than the sheet that comes with the software.

For cons, the fawn that must use the USB clf trspnible in the sense that it must be constantly throughout the industry work PERIOD. In my case, I work with an iBook and clf blocking me from a USB. T he would so much easier to insrer cl for the connection and once the connection table, the possibility to remove and free the USB port.

SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE

IBook G4
Systm OsX 10.4.8

I have just purchased the software trsrcemment. I do not really comment on this subject.

OVERALL OPINION

2 days
The SE
Correct
Srement since I'm used to this software in a smaller version.

Pb-free installation
No-incompatbilt materielle except some VST included, which are not compatible MacIntel
Steinberg also has a standard that prevents some VST VST3 (even in UB version) to work with Cubase.
Ex: Waves Platinum, Korg Legacy, ect
-Configuration very simple, jai used to work on SX2
I have traveled by curiosities missing a lot of things but it is rather clear in all

SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE

- MacBook Core 2 Duo 2 Ghz, 2GB RAM,
- TC Electronic Konnekt 24d
- Performance: for now nothing wrong has to be said that jai not push the beast, but it opens very quickly and also VST.
Stability-plant it just once, fortunately there is the auto backup

OVERALL OPINION

I have been using 2 / 3 weeks
-I like the ergonomics cubase, it's probably only a matter of taste but I would not find a particular default!
except, possibly, the fact that we must leave the dongle plugged into the USB port constantly.
"I had already tried Logic Express 7 but I like less ergonomics though he is certainly stable .. +
Quality-price ratio rather a lot, I pay 150 new in version Edu on Ebay import of the United States
I probably do it again the choice though I'd like to spend one day definitely on logic
brief in any case it is a good soft

Installing Mac Pro is simple.
Incompatibility with old projects Cubase LE ... impossibility of reopening some projects Studio 4 ...
Config trs (too) simple and too confusing time. (J'tais in LE, a change not by changing but not as we esprait therefore not forcment the better).
Manuel clear but incomplete as usual.

SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE

2x2.66 dual core MAC PRO
5 GB of Ram
HD 250 GB, 2x 320 GB HD
Presonus Firepod

The software does not work that great. Even with the updates.
Cubase crashes quite often, to launch in reading or recording.
I almost began to regret Cubase LE ...
The VST are all planted, you find that fair (macintel incompatibility?).
The dcalages, and poor timing of the sound recording is the most dsagrables! Friends drummers, your peace me! Do not expect record more than a minute at a time ...
I who have sacrificed all my heavy-SAVINGS my PC and Cubase LE for Mac Pro + Cubase 4 and find the same problem and worse, well, I am happy !!!!!!!
EDIT: The 2008 Update of fvrier fixes lots of bugs, cpu overload problem, and femetures impromptu. Steinberg thank you to you be rveill.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for several months.
I like the ergonomics cubase.
I like stability and less jemenfoutisme steinberg about their updates ...
I tried Cubase, Logic Pro viteuf, Garageband (but not count) and Cubase SX 2.
I could have version EDU 198 euros. It's still a bit expensive for such a ** Wed.
I added 50 euros and I had a sound card and a free and squenceur STABLE.
I do not know if I would do this choice knowing that Dornava Steinberg ritra the same mistakes in the past without correcting them.
October 2007 Update: Actually, I try not seek a new squenceur because CS4 get drunk. Ok, it's better for the plug but the plant automation, monitoring, too, dtection entries is not automatic (as opposed to LE), it is 10 minutes each time for a rgler nothing a crack has supports Cubase LE files half the time and SAVE THE IMMEDIATELY a project that you have CS4 with Russia opens in another directory under a different name because errors irrcup saddles come frquemment (6 of 8 projects which is to say) and it will be impossible to reopen the project! Fates a ride on the cubase.net and you will see the number of users complaining Steinberg!
I do not like the fact that not support my old plug-ins (Put **! Of Waves! Considering the price, sacrilge!)
It is said that THE STUDIO 4 and can run on the same machine but it's not true, it must be an uninstall that one of them works!
So I left prospecting right to see which of protools / logic pro rglera its own problem in the first, and DS I have a little money, I will change as I find these errors Studio4 inadmissible. I'm not going to switch to Precipitation Occurred squenceur because competitors also have their problems, and leaving a sea ** for another, no thank you. I may well return under the one of the four to find the simplicitergonomie I loved both the composition.
With all these effects could, you have to be complicated so we could do to simply as.

Edit: Updated fvrier 2008
Since the new MAJ, the software runs much better than before.
New interfaces are also apparuess (for faster navigation, and simple rglages) 3 I spend 6

Warning nanmoins This Update registers a project as if c'tait cubase 5 (rtrocompatible not so) but I finally got to open my projects Cubase LE and Cubase projects certaisn st 4 plants / Fair up Submitted (only SETTING THE mix / effects t have lost, which is serious in itself, but not silent as if lost)
